“Since Reconstruction, there have only been four black senators. Three of them — Carol Moseley Braun, Barack Obama and Roland Burris”

The author forgets Obama is not black. He is 1/2 white and 1/2 black. Why that makes him “black” is beyond me.

The author should have mentioned that the first two black U.S. senators were Republicans.

If 100-0 is segregated then so is 0-1.
