    Sure there have. But clique bias prevents it from being recognized and policed for what it is. As I've said before, some of you with several thousand posts got some of the funkiest attitudes I've ever encountered on a message board. And it goes unchecked because yall all in the same little clique and think the same. it wouldn't do for you to divide the clique's house. :laugh:

    Just pointing out your factual error. The eye rolling is because I figured you'd respond the way you did. :rolleyes:(care to guess why I'm rolling my eyes?)

    Hey we already know that "racists" are the last to recognize it. Same way with cliques. :laugh:

    Zaac- Perhaps you meant that they were the black version of Islamic radicals?

    What is an "average Black person"?

    No doubt a whole lot of racist assumptions will be required for you to define it. :laugh:

    Arbo, I understand what you're saying. But I wrote it to mean they are "the Islamic radical version of Blacks". It's one phrase.

    Yes , I could have said it the way that you did.

    No, more like geographic observations. Minnesota has been integrated far longer than Georgia.

    Segregated Sundays? Unheard of up here.

    Segregated lunch counters? Never heard of them in Minnesota.

    Minnesota elected a black man to be on the state Supreme Court 20 years ago. He's now chief justice.

    And thus the term average. The majority of the Black people in the United States do not live in the North. They live in the South. The experience of Southern Blacks has definitely been different. And a large majority of the Blacks in the US have family connections in the South so they can still relate.

    It just is what it is. You could just about pick any Black person off the street and his experience as far as discrimination and racial prejudice goes will probably be alien to most Whites who will summarily give the type of reply RevMitchell gave because folks think Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson represent all Blacks.

    Your posts have got the greatest lack of understanding of anyone that has posted in the history of this board. First of all, that was stated in another thread to you, Zaac has made it quite clear he does not like Obama.

    Most of all, a Presidential election is not based on race, either side. It is based on what the candidates stand for and the issues. It is embarrassing to read your posts. I cannot imagine how you feel typing them.

    Disagree - 4 years ago many young blacks voted for Obama - due to race - and I am sure many voted against Obama due to his race/multi-race

    I can only respond the way I have seen voters decide who to vote for. Maybe isolated where I live, but the issues are the driving force. Anyone using race as a deciding factor should stay home. The person posting the message bases his responses on some demeaing, flippant answer without fail.
