Oprah: Many Americans Disrespect Obama Because He’s Black

REPORTER: "Oprah Winfrey has been a prominent supporter of Barack Obama. She thinks that both he and the Office of President have been treated with contempt because of the color of his skin."
WINFREY: "There's a level of disrespect for the Office that occurs. And that occurs in some cases, and maybe even many cases, because he's African American. There's no question about that, and it's the kind of thing that nobody ever says, but everybody's thinking it."
