blacks need to own up to their poor reading of the US
sad that they were so deluded about the state of race relations and that it took obama's election to make them realize how fair-minded most americans really are.
there should be more mea culpas in the media by them about their nearly mutinous and grievously mistaken perception of their fellow americans.
