    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.�

    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.

    She began by claiming that she herself was so independent politically that
    even the term �independent� did not go far enough to describe her.

    Sunny Hostin began the conversation, saying that Goldberg, to her knowledge, had �been independent for a while.�

    �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?��

    Her cohosts recalled that she had, in fact, suggested that arrangement in the past.

    �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.

    Goldberg went on to mention Moore, calling him a �perfect candidate� � and cohost Sara Haines agreed, interjecting, �I love Wes Moore.�

    �But people are saying, �You can�t elect a black man,�� Goldberg complained, asking, �Why not?�

    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.
