They have certainly shown how depraved and gutless they are, havn't they. I remember Jbond when he was young, and he was much more well-spoken. The hysterical anger may be coming from the fact that all their honest goals have been reached, and they have hit the glass ceiling. It is now past time to EARN the places in society they wish... like Condy et al.
Now the only way they can be 'leaders' is to scream in order to frighten the 90% to vote for people like 'Elvis'.

Hopefully more blacks will realise that they don't need to be frightened anymore.

One problem is that blacks (and whites)are less well schooled than they were forty years ago. When my wife's school ws integrated in the 1950s, the principal of the small black school in her WV town was reassigned to the high school, displacing one of the white teachers. Much better educated than the other teachers, she was black but well-versed in what it took to compete in an integrated society and imposing very high standards on her white students. But such teachers, white or black, are rare in today's public schools.
