Ex-President claims anti-Obama mood 'racist'


The level of partisanship in US politics has increased to such a level over the summer that ex President Jimmy Carter claims the mood has turned so ugly that hidden racial slurs are now being used against President Barack Obama. Do you think the level of debate in the US is too negative?

  2. A very revealing article as to the explosiveness of the debate in the USA over race. But also one that demonstrates the divisiveness that the American political system can create.
