McCain’s avoidance of the ACORN association & Jeremiah Wright is an example of the great silence on racial issues imposed by the mass media. The liberal media accuse Republicans of racism on the most contrived of pretexts.They see whites a uniquely racist, intolerant, greedy, and violent nature. So entrenched are these hostile stereotypes in the minds of Americans, and particularly of the elites, that any white who criticizes non-whites is immediately suspect.

This is a typical strategy employed by communist/socialist agitators in America to foment racial tension and hatred.....even to the point of creating it - Saul Alinsky style - where none exists.
Oh, and by the way, said agitation comes in several different “flavors.” Class struggle, gender issues, etc.
