Your team attacking Colin Powell is no surprise. The actions of Belafonte and 90% of blacks in this country is nothing less than unbridled racism. Juan Williams discussed this on Fox News last night. He explained he has been discriminated against by other blacks because of his "overly conservative" stance. This, of course, was said to have caused him to get fired from NPR. Any BLACK who does not toe the Democrat party line is considered to be an "Uncle Tom". Meanwhile, Clinton is the ONLY white ever inducted into the "Arkansas Black Hall of Fame" (Where is the "Arkansas WHITE Hall of Fame"?). The Blacks in this nation are blindly following a racist leadership -- from Jessie Jackson the Congressional Black Caucus. It is no surprise that they will discriminate against blacks who don't happen to support Democrats.

Well what has 40 years of voting for the democrat's great society gotten the black voters? Nothing. If I determined things by innuendo and/or opinion, I would have to agree with you. However, the statistics tell a different story. The democrats must keep the black man down. It's all about votes. Blacks should be measuring the democrats actions instead of swallowing all of the rhetoric the democrats spew forth at election time. This is disturbing stuff. Whether blacks are happy or unhappy with their Dem. registration, I will leave it to someone who is black to comment on that issue. Having said that, what is the alternative? Your team attacking Colin Powell is no surprise. He is a fine example of what possibilities exist if you quit listening to Jesse Jackson. This funny......you say "my team"......as if you know me. You don't have a clue as to who I am. And as for C. Powell, like I said, I have a certain respect for him although I think he may be selling his soul to the company man.......but that's his problem, not mine. If the black majority would begin taking advantage of the opportunities which already exist, the democrats would lose their power. The Dems. lose their power? You're a little off.....try the Reps. And black society would be a lot better off. Really? You think so? You been hanging around D. Ray too long. ted
