Race Speech

yeah..........

I see this whole "race" matter being the same as the "gay marriage" issue from '04.

Both are polarizing factors to divert Americans' attention away from the fact that the economy is in the toilet, there is an evil foreign occupation going on, the middle class is being systematically crushed, and the taxable earnings of the next 4 generations are being looted by off-shore "defense" contractors.

Neither issue has any real substance and neither issue can be resolved by our elected officials. Both are cultural issues and will never be changed by any government.

JMHO

Obama is not the one dragging race into the contest.

Indeed, even in this "race" speech he attempted to bring the issues you mention back into the debate.

Read it and think about it, it won't change your color.

Heck, the next time we hear from you, you might even be calling yourself AmericanGuy.

It's not easy to change culture through law. But a president can influence it by using his bully pulpit.
