Well, America is very much a segregated society but since the 1950's has been trying varoius things to move forward but, in spite of these efforts, has not come very far at all. Well, in these times of extreme *intolerance*, looks very much like the US is going to loose ground in race relations.

The *white* South is ripe for regressin' since it has a disporportionate number of under-eduacted who live for Buidweiser, country music and NASCAR and don't seem to have much tolerance fir black folk or folks with a more enlightened perspective. And Bush, the master of class warfare, has done nuthing but kiss lots of redneck butt with his quips about intellectuals.

Heck, I think the white folk oughtta just be rounded up and sent back to Europe where they belong and leave the country to the descendents of those who really *built* the danged thing: black folks and the folks that were here when whitey colonized the joint.
