4. I'm guessing butler's was all African American but very small.
He's a host on a black talk radio station. I'm sure he has black repub followers.

The whole thing is segregated the way Chicago pretty much is.

3. Nope. None. Not surprised either.

Here's the thing. Obviously not everyone out there is a KKK-style racist. But they do harbor these feelings of discontent towards blacks. And they have this fear that any black person in power, no matter what they may claim, has secret plans to go radical against "whitey".

So if Obama says he is cutting taxes - and actually follows through (as he has done) - it's still just a tease so he can rope them in for the big SOCIALIST/MARXIST bang later.
