---Last Saturday (Aug. 9th) NYTimes printed the results of poll with some sobering percentages about what white people think; for instance: 48% oppose programs which make special efforts to help minorities get ahead; 19% believe race relations will get worse if Obama is elected as opposed to 9% who think they will get worse if McCain is elected; 33% don't work with any black people; 24% don't think America is ready for a black president and 27% feel too much has been made of the problems facing black people. And, 26% feel they have been discriminated against because they are white.
--- Just yesterday, Cokie Roberts of NPR said he shouldn't have vacationed in such an exotic place as Hawaii (visiting his grandmother) when he calling himself the candidate from Kenya and Kansas. C'mon Cokie, where would you rather go for a vacation in the summertime?
