After having my a$$ chewed off for three hours on a black talk station today, I hope you'll excuse me if I don't share your enthusiasm (and if I don't sit down for right now, either).
I know that feeling :(
Hey I said it is a novel idea, not an easy sell. If you look at the posts on this subject you'll see what I'm talking about. Whites have made fun of it and blacks think you are crazy. But then they thought and did that to Columbus.
But the idea is great. My suggestion is don't sell it like you are trying to show blacks something. Considering most blacks don't like Bush just because he's a republican you should just state the facts. Here's what Bush has done, and the beneficaries are obvious.
