The biggest racism card in this Country is the press. Millions of whites and blacks live in the same neiborhoods, go to the same schools, play sports together, shop at the same stores, socialize, attend churches, and frankly get along as friends. Yet the radical blacks and whites seem to get the limelight with the press leading everyone to believe racism is worse than ever. While I'm not foolish enough to believe that racism is dead, it has progressed to the point where the good should be fed to the public by the press not the bad, and you will find the bad will die into the sunset. The proof lies in the fact that Obama is running for President and has a good chance to win, and further proof is the Olympics where race makes absolutely no difference. I love watching the Americans, and the way they speak of their Country, whether they are black or white what difference does it make, they are Americans. As for Obama's wife, she is a lucky lady, married to a Presidental candidate, attended the finest school, and living the American dream. She has no right to complain about anything, and that's why she has been put on the back of the bus by the democratic party, so she won't make another dumb statement.
