Accepting lower standards of behavior for black people is a form of racism. Only a racist would say that black people are not capable of joining civilized society on an equal footing. Do blacks need lower standards because they are inferior people? This is the soft bigotry of low expectations.
So Obama is turning into AL Sharpton? Either way hispanics are no longer a minority. They represent a majority in most cities..
Apparently Judicial Watch doesn't understand the Supreme Court's ruling. Section 2 of the the Voting Rights Act, which was not overturned, authorizes Federal Courts to act on cases of voting discrimination. Of course, the DOJ has to prove their case in a Federal Court.

What are the structural impediments?
