I feel sorry for anyone who gets tarred and feathered in public just because someone they knew has made a run for the gold. This man would have lived his life out peacefully but for Obama's run. That doesn't strike me as very fair- whether or not the man is a narcissist.

Many diseases hit the black community harder, and younger, than the white community. Unfortunately until recently we didn't study the racial differences wrt drugs and diagnosis- just as most medical studies didn't study the differences between female patients and male patients. That's changing- but I don't think the entire mortality problem in the black community can be explained by guns and drugs. That's jmo though. I can't find any good numbers one way or the other.
