20. QUOTE -- Yes, it's "historic," UNQUOTE . ..
As I said in my subject to you . . . "YES, Obama's race is historic" . . .

HOWEVER, he is not running to be our first "black" president --- he is running to be our president.

Is this too subtle for you?

Candidates are not defined as their color, age, or gender ---

They are simply candidates for president ---

Again, I think that "black" and "white" are terms we should all give up, especially in our
corporate-media.

If any "white" person actually thinks they are white . . . they are confused.



And . . .

when you worked for the NAACP, you thought "people of color was just too, too pc" . . . ???
