Seriously, I taught Black people in college.
If given a chance and if they are motivated, they are as ambitious and as hard working as any normal person who is pursuing the American Dream.
They need to believe in themselves and should not wait for people to believe in them.

To me, a vote for Obama's policies means the people have stopped believing in themselves that they can pursue the American Dream through their own hard work.

Dear heaven tell me that someone didn't really write that sentence in the year of 2008. So you think that only white people are "normal people?
Remember though when a non Hispanic 'White' person screws up: he/she when punished is much less likely to elicit sympathy from society at large-------let alone most other Anglo Whites like myself.
Then why are Blacks and Hispanics given harsher sentences for similar crimes?
In fact, I probably experience more discrimination than the average American because of the color of ma skin.
.. I look fo' racists!
I have an imaginary toy gun with a plastic bullets that ses racist.
If someone puts down Obama, I shoot 'em with ma racist bullets.
It works. It shuts 'em up.
