    <<"The great thing about that photo leading this article is that from an anthropological standpoint, the country will eventually become non-melanin specific as races inter-marry and reproduce to the point where there is just "us."

    I'm sorry I won't live to see that day because all this racial bullshit has been continuing to drag our country down since its inception.">>

    I think there's a possibility that you will see the day you hope for. I think it would already be here but for all the dishonest incompetence in the media, and true racists in politics not being hounded out of office by the media, instead of sucking up (or on) them.

    In a way, I hope Hillary wins (the presidency), not only because I think she's the best candidate, but because it would be such a smashing defeat of the media, and could help end the careers of so many jerks, like Matthews, Russert and their little constellation of also-rans, or at least, end their credibility quite effectively.
