It does change for liberals because they see that primitive emotion is no longer valid and so their perception changes based on modern reality. .

That post is more telling than you know. Yes, it is stamped into our DNA. But the trick is to intellectually realize that it is a wrong emotion. And correct it.

That is what the liberals do and what the Republicans do not do.

Deep down at the gut level racism is in our DNA. It is a survival mechanism. At the visceral level it is hardwired. And that doesn't change whether you are liberal or conservative and that democrats don't get that is just one of the reasons they are losing all across the country. That doesn't mean your best friend can't be another race - it just means that placed in a particular situation - your instincts kick in. There isn't a person reading these threads that if placed in the middle of an Iraq town surrounded only by people living in that town - could do so without some discomfort and anxiety.
