There is no relatinship between Gore, Clinton and the NAACP and your point was? As I said before NAACP does not represent the majority of blacks period. NAACP is a liberal organization. The parents of children are responsible for their own children. I already have 3 or 4 people riding on my back Federal tax-wise. I don't owe any more to parents of somebody else who has children they can't afford.

In 1997, the NAACP protested a scheduled appearance by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas at a fundraiser in Maryland for a Boys and Girls Club in Delaware. The NAACP's Maryland chapter said Thomas was not a "proper role model" for black youth. Chapter president Hanley Norment called Thomas "a lawn jockey for white, conservative politicians." Thomas backed out of the event. Two years earlier, the national NAACP had nominated the late gangsta’ rapper and convicted felon Tupac Shakur for one of its coveted Image Awards. Apparently, in the NAACP’s world, a "felonious rap star" is an acceptable image for black youth, but a "conservative Supreme Court Justice" is not.
