He is not denying this.

It is a fact people struggle against other people, so what? It never stooped me from accomplishing a thing. It is also a fact that many people need to stop blaming "the man" for his own problems. Boils down to personal responsibility people.

Obama being elected is a change in the right direction and maybe all those good ole' white males in charge got a Big wake up call:roll:

Obama being elected means nothing. It will be more of the same politicians representing their interests over the people. If the recent bailout is not a fine example of this then I don't know what is.

So Obama voted to bail out those "good ole' white males in charge." What does that tell you?

That would be all well and fine if Rasicsm was a thing of the past; it is not hence the nasty racism we saw during the election. Also you are not suppose to ever forget the past so that you will not repeat it.

I find it awful that some folks feel that certain groups of people that have had mass hate and pain directed towards them over hate should simply "get over it".. I think the victims of anything horrid have a right to "whine"-as you put it-for just how ever damn long they please! :roll:
