Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Angela Davis run for the US presidency on the American Communist Party ticket back in the 60s? (This was before the people all mentioned above.)

The black woman you are thinking of may have been Ezola Foster who ran as Pat Buchanan's running mate in the 2000 election

Keyes is an idiot though. It's unfortuante that many black candidates only got there because of money and were sell-outs in the first place.

Obama, I think thats how you spell it is half black and half white. He's trying to run for the Democratic party if Hillary doesn't take it.
