"Black Democrats argued that black Republicans’ effort to divorce race from politics proves these conservatives are uncomfortable with their heritage."

No. What is proves is that they are trying to get elected on the content of their character, not the color of their skin!"

I couldn't have said it any better. It is about time that all people start seeing themselves as Americans first. I don't care what color their skin is as long as they are standing for good Republican values. With that being said I am 1/2 Mexican. I get so many ethnic people automatically assuming that I am a DUMBocRAT. I hate that more than anything being lumped into their crowd. I don't ever check Latino or Hispanic on any kind of questionnaire or form I fill out. I always ask why their isn't a box that just says AMERICAN on the form. Ok I am off my soapbox for a bit so my blood pressure can go down.

I played football in college and we were comprised of a true race pot which worked and played together. White, Mejican and Hawaiian lineman blocked for black backs and took pride in the yardage they gained. It was a team effort. What's the difference here?
