To me people are people. I don't classify them by their skin color and
it has been proved that blood is blood regardless of the skin color of
the body the blood came from.
I wasn't being accusatory. I was just stating, historically, if you
had one drop of black blood, you were considered black. The remnants
of Jim Crow is still alive and well in this country.
Why did you bring it up?

I didn't, you did, indirectly.

"He's half black and half white. How can he claim exclusive identity with
just one race?"



If I remember correctly, and I think I do because the congressional
record will prove me correct, "Jim Crow" was a product of Southern
Democrats and it took Republicans to pass Civil Rights legislation back
in the '60's. Amazing that all of those Democrats from the South
couldn't be counted on by Johnson to put into law that people are
people.

Yeah, but don't pat yourself on the back too much. In '64, those
southern states may have been blue, but now, they are red.

With a few more gaff's by Obama about his Muslim Faith and those blue
states will turn red. I guess you missed George Steponopolis
interviewing him today. Obama and Biden have a habit of sticking their
dicks in the door jam and slamming the door on it.
