RE:"Who said all crackers are white? Its a state of mind more than a particular color"

You'd better look up the definition of Cracker.

I know what the definition of the word was originally.........a poor white in FLA and GA. But eventually it was used to reference all poor whites in the South. And later still, it began to convey a certain state of mind or attitude. That's the way I am choosing to use the word and not in its original racial context.
