Yes we know blacks are beholden to Democrats and conservative blacks will get verbal lashings from democrats and liberals if they disagree and do not vote democrat. But as you said, you agree and now I say we need to get back to the subject of this thread which is.

Obama- America's worst mistake?

Well you are placing full blame on the white man when Africans captured their own and sold them. I would bet that you would embrace the descendant of the people who sold Africans while attacking the other.

Some vestiges of racism will always exist but it would have taken away the primary economic incentive to promote racism.

I get so tired of hearing this crap. The USA is nearly a "Police State" and that has absolutely nothing to do with "Coddling".

No doubt it's becoming a police state. Which is why we need to get back to adhering to the US Constitution which is in place to prohibit the government from having too much power over the people.
