I am not the candidate of Black America, although I am black and proud. I am not the candidate of the woman's movement of this country, although I am a woman and I am equally proud of that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a black American, I am proud of my race. I am proud of who I am. I have a lot of pride and dignity.
I'm a black American, and I'm proud to represent who and where I'm from - unapologetically. There's no shame in my game.
As a black woman, my politics and political affiliation are bound up with and flow from participation in my people's struggle for liberation, and with the fight of oppressed people all over the world against American imperialism.
I have never been more proud of the United States than I am this year. We have elected an African-American president. We have the stellar Michelle Obama setting the standard for American women. I simply cannot say it enough: look how far we've come.
I'm very proud to be black, but black is not all I am. That's my cultural historical background, my genetic makeup, but it's not all of who I am nor is it the basis from which I answer every question.
Because of where I come from, I never thought I'd see in my life a black candidate running for President.
Mostly I'm proud to be an African-American woman, but I'm glad I have a universal look as well.
I don't look to a man to get pride in myself. It's not about having a black president, it's about having a good president, and I think that's the most important thing.
I am for Obama, all the way. I don't support Obama just because he is a black man; I support him because he is an educated black man. He is making black people proud.
I am proud to be an African.
