Dean has no ethnic minorities in Vermont. He has never even had to deal with the issue. Yet he had the temerity to BS everyone and say he's the only candidate who talks race in front of white audiences. You call that refreshing and clear? What about his stupid confederate flag issue? You think anyone appreciates that but the Bushies? Think strategy here. Dean will be lucky to win 10 states versus Bush if he were nominated. And Clark is his enemy, so dont try to use him as cover.

Dean should know, the racial inequities in the Northeast are greater than in the South or West. That is why there is now a net migration of African Americans to the South. re:"Dean talks about racial inequities in the US. When addressing race issues, you have to talk about race. Dean's a straight shooter, kinda rare in politics."

Just how mentally retarded are liberals??? Best of the Web Today - November 7, 2003 By JAMES TARANTO End of an Era Let history record Nov. 6, 2003, as the day on which the civil rights movement in America drew to a close. For that is the day the Atlanta Journal-Constitution published the following sentence, in an article on the judicial nomination of Janice Rogers Brown: Prominent blacks charged President Bush deliberately chose a conservative black woman so it would be harder for senators to vote against her. Having long ago achieved the indisputably noble goal of ensuring that America lives up to the promise of equal justice under the law for all citizens regardless of race, the civil rights movement turned to the more dubious pursuit of "affirmative action." Now, however, they are complaining that blacks receive favorable treatment. Lamenting President Bush's choice of a black woman, and senators' discomfiture in voting against her, are leaders of such venerable civil-rights organizations as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the National Council of Negro Women. The civil rights movement has a proud and grand history. Now that its leaders are reduced to carping over what used to be termed "reverse discrimination," it seems safe to say that the problems that necessitated the movement are history as well.
