Kwame Kilpatrick, Detroit. It is not the color, it's the thinking.
Why do they keep re-electing leaders who keep them stymied "down on the plantation?" It's the same query that I have about why Sharpton and Jesse Jackson maintain any credence at all. You'd think that after a few generations, people ("folks") would get "sick and tired" of being sold victimhood.
As Dick Cheney said in his speech at the RNC convention, "A litany of complaints is not an agenda." (It's not a force for change, either......or there would have been change and improvement in the ghettos, what with all of this glorious, exhilerating "victimhood" that the victocrats keep bringing to them, especially during election cycles. Why do they keep on buying it?)
