Re: "Bush by elevating other more moderate and temperate voices in the black leadership may be able to make some progress here."

Agreed. However, the easy part is appointing people like Rice and Powell to high positions. The hard part is reaching out and making meaningful changes in the lives of the disenfranchised, i.e., by improving the quality of education in the inner cities, by bringing jobs to urban areas, by promoting plans to foster home ownership among minorities, etc.

Problem is, it costs money to do that. And that runs counter to the Republican philosophy of less government and less taxes.
