My fault.<BR/><BR/>in the words of Michael Corleone: "Who's being naive now, Kay"<BR/>=====================================<BR/>Not naive so much as cynical. It's always been my belief that the average white person walking down the street doesn't hate black people as much as they just don't care about them. It's not racism, just good ol' American indifference. Besides, hating people takes time and effort, and white guys have bills to pay like everybody else.<BR/><BR/>M.Dot - to that list, I want to add "Missing white women" syndrome. I would explain it, but you can probably guess what that is just off of the name alone. But on the bright side, the SCOTUS recently held that federal judges can impose lesser penalties for crack offenses (compared to cocaine offenses) than the federal sentencing guidelines currently mandate. It's not much, but it is a start.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-17793858879379233972007-12-22T10:15:00.000-05:002007-12-22T10:15:00.000-05:00DAMNNNN DIDDLEY D.

I wasn't clear with my thoughts.<BR/>What I will say though is that racism is as American as apple pie.<BR/>Therefore is it practiced both passively and actively, by some whites, mainly those who are in a position of power or authority to do something. <BR/>Evidence.<BR/>1.Number of Black men shot in the back or shot and killed because they were carrying a cellphone/brush/ and the cities policy that SHOOT TO KILL is an acceptable method of dealing with someone you presume MAY be carrying a gun.<BR/>2.No Child Left Behind.

And what does is mean to act "black" anyway? So what if he doesn't have a mouth full of gold teeth or show up at every debate doing the "Soldier Boy?" We need to let the man be who he is and stop trying to gauge his blackness. I never "watch myself" around mixed because I'm the same way around everybody. Life is hard enough without having to put on a false face every time I go out in public.<BR/><BR/>Also, I have to call you out for assuming that the majority of white people ARE racist without any kind of facts or evidence to back it up. Without any kind of data to shore up your point, you're making the same mistake that Frank Rich is making. There are enough reasons to vote Republican without having to resort to the "All Republicans are racist because they vote Republican" line of rhetoric.<BR/><BR/>To be honest, Republicans like Hillary because she's an easy target. For starters, her last name is Clinton. That by itself is enough red meat for the Republican base to gnaw on until the 2012 election. If they have to run against Obama, then they got nothing. They hope and pray for Hillary because its what they know, and as the old saying goes, "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't." <BR/><BR/>What he said about being able to run against Obama without being racist is true to an extent, though. For years, Republicans have tried to get black votes with varying degrees of success. One thing that they never could do was tap into the Black vote, and if Obama does get the nomination, any hope of a black/GOP voting block is out of the window.<BR/><BR/>The same is true of Edwards, who's probably the most liberal top-tier candidate. If the GOP had to run against him, the best that they could do is try to portray him as "Clinton lite," but the problem is that the Bush presidency has made the Clinton years that much better in hindsight. The GOP has no plan B, so they're putting all of their eggs into the Clinton basket.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and Gore's not gonna run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
