I don't get it

You seem to be arguing that the racism issue is mythical but then you say that since Jesse Jackson was a negative figure for most American voters (why? racism?) Dukakis could only get a D because Jackson dominated the evening. Isn't that itself racism?

Obama & Hyde Park

I read your piece on Obama and wanted to point out that Hyde Park isn't majority White.

Democratic Party

I have an idea which I believe would solve the Democratic Party only partially for the time being . Just get together and let Mc CAIN WIN THE ELECTION ,NO THEY WON'T LIKE IT.But it would be for only four year and then could come back with certainly better cadidates that they have now.I am Republican and I TELL YOU

after asking the peaple I know ,who whould vote in Noverber,it does not look good for the Democratic Party. Just a thought,but you know what ,they are too stupid to go for it

Jerimiah Wright

It would be interesting to know the contents of Rev. Wryght's lectures at the U of C.
