The Democrats keep racism alive by constantly accusing the right of racism - even though Republicans have done more for all minorities. Keeping the hatred stirred up empowers the left with their left-wing group agendas and they know that if you say something often enough people will believe it. I personally disliked Obama's past, his rhetoric, his arrogance, etc. I didn't vote for him but I was willing to give the man a chance because I thought it was wonderful to have a black man elected to the highest office. We cannot judge an entire race by a few bad men. If DR Sowell ran for president - he'd have my vote.

Race and Politics

Few combinations are more poisonous than race and politics. That combination has torn whole nations apart and led to the slaughters of millions in countries around the world.

You might think we would have learned a lesson from that and stay away from injecting race into political issues. Yet playing the race card has become an increasingly common response to growing public anger at the policies of the Obama administration and the way those policies have been imposed.
