But more to the point, what is wrong with that dream? Why is it leftists continue to exploit any issue from a racial perspective? Maybe you should ask yourself that.Mike Thiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02929567856363413549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-78914613739334212932012-03-14T17:25:40.285-07:002012-03-14T17:25:40.285-07:00Adrienne, I understand and accept your point.

Usually, though, when appealing to different "demographics", politicians appeal to some shared value--Jews might want to hear about how a politician feels about the Israeli-Palestinian issue, for instance.<br /><br />This is different. This is an appeal solely on skin color. If I were to judge someone solely on skin color, I'd be a racist. I'm merely holding Lovie to the same standard--not a higher or lower standard--than society would hold me to.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730642770935985796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-36218949143158725482012-03-14T17:22:19.779-07:002012-03-14T17:22:19.779-07:00Utter crap.

If Lovie can do something because of his skin color that I can't do because of my skin color, that's racist. You don't have to agree with that, and I'm sure you don't, but that's pretty much the definition of racism.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730642770935985796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-73135354456551318872012-03-14T15:04:05.831-07:002012-03-14T15:04:05.831-07:00Hey come on, you know that only knuckle-dragging c...Hey come on, you know that only knuckle-dragging caucasian conservatives can be racist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-45637757062460138102012-03-14T12:17:29.797-07:002012-03-14T12:17:29.797-07:00You wouldn't consider African-Americans to be ...You wouldn't consider African-Americans to be a cultural group as well?
