“I heard the call. He was sincere. You are out of you’re ever-living mind if you think he was paid to call Rush.”

Oh, so you think no African-American actor could perform well enough to pull the wool over your eyes? Let me tell you something, there is a long American tradition of fine African-American actors, such as Paul Winfield as Captain Terrell in “Star Trek II:The Wrath of Khan” and Bernie Casey as Colonel Rumbus in “Spies Like Us”, and that caller put on an Acadaemy Award winning performance every bit as good as those two guys.

ngat, To be perfectly honest with you, the fact that the caller was black never entered my mind when I responded to your post. The caller was not a setup. I don’t think Rush needs to stoop to those levels for ratings.

. . . there is a long American tradition of fine African-American actors, . . .

Paul Winfield and Bernie Casey are the two Black actors you choose as your examples of a long American tradition of fine Black Actors? You are unable to select Black actors with real credentials? I certainly hope you not looking to have any comments you've made on this thread viewed with credibility after this post!!! Star Trek and Spies Like US - seriously!!!
