<p>Whoopi Goldberg came unglued during Thursday’s broadcast of “The View” on ABC, claiming even after living through all eight years of former President Barack Obama’s time in office, people keep telling her America “can’t elect a black man.”</p>
<p>Goldberg made the comment while complaining about the fact that, at least in her mind, Governor Wes Moore (D-MD) was not getting the kind of national buzz that she thought he deserved.</p>
<p>She began by claiming that she herself was so independent politically that even the term “independent” did not go far enough to describe her.</p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">What century is Whoopi Goldberg living in?<br />Whoopi whines that no one is taking Maryland Governor Wes Moore (D) seriously for president because, &quot;You can&#39;t elect a black man.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/E8aanz7Qln">pic.twitter.com/E8aanz7Qln</a></p>

<p>Sunny Hostin began the conversation, saying that Goldberg, to her knowledge, had “been independent for a while.”</p>
<p>&#8220;There’s no name for what I am,” Goldberg replied, prompting laughter from the audience as she went on to explain her point further. “There’s no name. Because there are some things that fit what I want and some things that don’t. And I am the crazy person who said, ‘Why don’t we have a Democratic president and a Republican vice president?’”</p>
<p>Her cohosts recalled that she had, in fact, suggested that arrangement in the past.</p>

<p>“I believe that the only way to get stuff done is to have both parties represented at the same time — and people keep telling me I’m crazy,” she continued.</p>
<p>Goldberg went on to mention Moore, calling him a “perfect candidate” — and cohost Sara Haines agreed, interjecting, “I love Wes Moore.”</p>
<p>“But people are saying, ‘You can’t elect a black man,’” Goldberg complained, asking, “Why not?”</p>
<p>Her cohosts pointed out that the United States had elected a black man — former President Obama — twice, and while Goldberg conceded the point, she claimed that had done nothing to deter the people who continued to tell her that such a thing could not be done.</p>
