Indeed. As a white person who's lived in barrios for the past twenty years, I can tell you that Hispanics and blacks AREN'T bro's! The coalition Obama built may not survive. All it may take is the right wedge issue, pushed in the right way, to crack it to pieces.

I can see you are as much a worrier as I am. What you say is exactly right. And that's just an illustration of ways in which wedges can be used to divide these groups.

It's a tough coalition to keep together.
