The thing that I’ve seen from several of the major news site’s is that they are not reporting the part about “unless he wants to have one” which to me is the most inflammatory part about what Reid said. Jake Tapper includes it in this article.
"He was wowed by Obama's oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama -- a 'light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,' as he said privately. Reid was convinced, in fact, that Obama's race would help him more than hurt him in a bid for the Democratic nomination.’”
