I understand Clarence Thomase's positions very well. I also understand racism very well.

The African American communty hates Clarence Thomas. And they are angry he was given their one "black seat' on the supremem court.

Thurgood Marshall was a black man, African Americans were very proud of.

Clarence Thomas was put on the court by conservative white group, over the vociferous objections of the black community and as a way to get a conservative vote, but still be able to say, see we put a black man on we are not racists. And if th eleft said anything the republicans could jsut say see you are the racist. Dirty trick!

It was a very dirty trick the republicans pulled.

It seems to me the black community should have had the right to pick whom they wanted to represent them on the supreme court, not have CT thrust upon them.

Clarence Thomas as done nothing to help the black community. He just rubber stamps whatever Scalia wants to do, seldom speaks and does not have the respect of his peers which refelects on blacks and makes them ashamed of him.

Thurgood Marshall, on the other hand, was also a lion and the black community was very proud of him and rightly so.
