Aside from his hair (which I can overlook in spite of being an old fogey), Robert Griffin III is really a credit to his race. I don't mean that sarcastically in any way. It's just the manner that we children of the 1940s characterize someone who's well-behaved, articulate and performs well. I was impressed with his actions both on and off the field during his senior year at Baylor, a private Christian university presided by a truly good man, Kenneth Starr. Griffin comes from a military family and his love for Our Savior is evident.

Honestly, when I'm about to dismiss the black race as a hopeless cause with their 90%+ support of Marxism and the rise of black-on-white crime (such as the recent murder of a young mother in Beaver Falls, PA), along comes a special human being such as RGIII to give me pause. I really hope the day comes when people like Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell and Robert Griffin III are the norm for blacks and not just a small subset.

Griffin got into college at age 17. He got his undergraduate degree in political science with a 3.6 GPA and a masters in communication.

Sounds like he may have a future in poliics!

I second that.

Don’t give up on us the kool-aid and Stockholm Syndrome is very strong in the black community. Just judge on an individual basis. In many places liberalism, collectivism, fascism and communism is the only thing that they know. When you have generations of welfare recipients and lack of fathers and the eschewing of education you get people like Mr. Parker.
