I just lost a lot of respect for Huckabee and his assertion that the unemployment rate for black high school droputs compared to white high school dropout rates on racism. No mention of the quality of inner city schools, black crime, the disintegration of the black family, and single parents.
I had to leave for a bit, but I agree with you. It’s easy to tow the liberal line and blame the problems on racism, but that’s really not it. Tancredo, Hunter, and Keyes nailed it. The problem is first and foremost the breakdown of the black family. Over 70% of black children are born out of wedlock. The second problem is the welfare programs that continue to allow the black family to break down. The third problem is illegal immigration lowering the salary of what would be better paying jobs.
