"When the X ballcap craze was on, so long ago, I got myself a U of Virginia cap, with the big V on it. When people would ask about it, I let them know that--like those people showing support for Malcolm the Tenth--I was showing support for my hero, the Christian warrior-king Henry V. Was priceless to see the libs' reactions. :-)"
Remember this?

A man with an "X" on his hat asked John Kerry about resonating outside of New England, and he said that Kerry could prove it to him by explaining the relevance of the cultural icon on his hat. He was a white guy, and John Kerry didn't know what it was. "The Roman Numeral 10?" he asked. "I don't know, tell me?"
It was Malcolm X! Of course.
Wow! I hadn't heard that one!
