Subject: RE: Obama, and The Price of Freedom
I agree. Having civil rights doesn't mean they won't be violated. Most people not hating based on race doesn't mean some won't. It's just that, thanks to those mentioned in Paul & Joanne's song and quite a few others, what is considered acceptable has shifted. It has shifted so white folks will vote for a black presidential candidate, and all the 'he has no chance' idiots are the ones to get put down, NOT the ones who hope that things can be more fair.
