Richardson Endorses Obama

Bill Richardson's endorsement of Obama, takes a prized super-delegate and former competitor off the table, as a potential ally for Clinton. It also introduces a potential political connection between Hispanics and Blacks. Why did this happen? One reason, Richardson points out, is that Obama has taken on the "race" issue headon. Another might be that Obama's analysis of race resonates for Hispanics. Could Hispanics' experience of race in America be similar to Blacks? Richardson thinks so. Question, are Blacks and Hispanics wholely responsible for the animus directed at them, by the larger society? Or could perhaps some portion of the anger directed at Whites be due to their attitudes and behavior recently, and historically?

Leave It To A Woman

Leave it to a Black Woman to understand old Black Men. It's still amazing to me how White Folk can't understand how an old Black Man could hate them... Still live in America... And still believe the Dream,and the nightmare and the words of the Constitution... Still believe the Union perfectable?
