Why is that when our President, Barrack Obama got elected, we all felt that because of the symbolic and historical nature of his win, certainly race relations and racism would not be the soup du jour topic of his administration. Black voters even if every one came out in an election which is impossible for any segment make up about 11% of the total vote. That has to mean that in very certain terms the Obama win was a rainbow, there had to be broad representation for him to claim victory. I happen to think that most of the hate people in our society keep it to themselves and just orchestrate their lifestyles so as to adhere to their agenda. Today Black professionals are in every industry and I doubt if they are wrapped up in some of the displays we are seeing on television. There will always be racism in our society but honestly, it is nothing like it was 40 years ago. Obama's poll numbers will sink even lower if his Press Secretary, the Artful Dodger has to field more speculative race questions than questions about Afghanistan, Unemployment and the Economy. Americans know that we get along with each other very well and they also know that some of these talk show revolutionaries are looking for their 15 minutes of fame at our expense.In this modern world they will not inflame us because we have been there and do not want to go back.
