I agree Obama does not want any of these people being to far up front. The more people like Dyson and Holder talk like this the more likely Obama is a one term president.
Holy smokes! Go Pat. Is this country waking up?
Gibson commented today on his radio show that when people like Holder say we need to talk about race, what they really what is for white folk to sit down and listen to people like Holder and Dyson talk (complain) about race.
I’m just amazed that Pat took off the gloves.
This crashing and burning of the US economy is going to cause everyone to once again grow a pair.
We are not a nation of cowards. However, when every conversation that is broached descends into something very similar to Prof. Dyson’s tired polemic about what white people did to blacks 50, 100 and 300 years ago it’s a yawner. Holder wants us to speak openly and honestly about race in America. However, if whites use the words “brother” “Lakisha” or even “You people” (like Ross Perot did), the conversation gets hijacked into the “your a racist screed”. Why bother?
It’s all risk for whites and all upside for blacks. Who wants to sit down at a table in that casino?
