Ted, > Why do you criticize liberal policies when they seem to be working?

What's working, Ted? Blacks and Hispanics continue to lag behind the rest of society in terms of education and wealth. That may be understandable for Hispanics who are escaping abject poverty in Latin America and have a language barrier to overcome, but blacks?

> We have more people of color who are well educated and successful than ever before. So successful that one of them has become president of the entire country.

Funny how SilentZ would call that the "exception" rather than the rule.

Anyway, there is nothing liberal or conservative about success stories among minorities. Whether you grew up in a "red state" or a "blue state," you are always responsible for your own success. But you'll never hear that from Democrats who think they should be the only arbiters of racial reconciliation.
