Black American society does. By and large, whites don't really care.

Look at the larger picture. We have a black president who won with millions of whites voting for him.

Only the Democrats make race a huge issue.

The rest of us hang out and live our lives among people of all backgrounds and enjoy their company

That is funny because the only people who are making a big deal about race are Democrats.

Besides, you live in Orange County in Southern California where illegal immigration is a huge issue. I think you are confusing illegal immigration with race because illegal immigration is not a racial issue

Really? Because Republicans do put A LOT of emphasis on race. Also the whole "illegal immigration" debate is also a code word for "Hispanic" in MANY circles.
