WASHINGTON, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Former U.S. President Bill Clinton says that while some barbs aimed at the White House are motivated by race, healthcare reform concerns are not.
Clinton, speaking Monday on CNN's "Larry King Live," partially agreed with an assessment by another former U.S. president, Jimmy Carter, that some of the vitriolic opposition to President Barack Obama is because he is black. But Clinton did not count the opposition to healthcare reform among some Americans as evidence of racism.
