Oh, instead, let's listen to that adult you are so proud of, the President of the United States:

"During a discussion between President George W. Bush... and [Brazilian President] Fernando Henrique Cardose... Bush stunned his counterpart with the question, 'Do you have blacks, too?' [Condoleezza Rice], who noticed how astounded the Brazilian was by the question, saved the situation by explaining to Bush: 'Mr. President, Brazil probably has more blacks than the U.S.A; it is said to have more black people than any country outside Africa.'..."

-Der Spiegel, May 19 (translated from the German)

[From The New Republic, June 10]
