.......the level of damage done to the black psyche from slavery and then decades of discrimination runs much deeper than we think and that they as a race will take longer to heal.

Seems to me that the discrimination, as is being driven home daily as a result of the Obama presidency, still runs as deep as the collective damage to the black psyche.

In fact it will prevent any appreciable level of healing, since the healing would of necessity require an interruption of the forces causing the damage.

The very fact of Obama may set the process back a decade or more.

The ability of the Republicans to tease out the latent racism in the population, for political gain, is a phenomenon that will hopefully be dissected and condemned.

There is no upper limit on the evil these people will resort to, to get and keep power.

Bush showed us that.
