Do you get the sense the Michelle Obama has ever been pleased about anything in her life?
The photo of her in the campaign literature for the primary in our state showed the most angry looking expression I have ever seen! No kidding! Scary! For the life of me, I can't understand why on Earth they would use that picture!

As someone who was a student in the Philly school system when it was integrated and who has had a lifetime involvement in education, I am able to recognize a brilliant and "right on" commentary on education.
Yeah, but if a sports commentator in ANY way called attention to differences between the races regarding athleticism he would be fired, chastised and ostracised from the profession!

All this time, certain segments of society have fought hard for equality & integration - now people like Rev. Wright assert that we muct recognize and cater to their DIFFERENCES!

I guess someone finally figured out that you can't push for eguality & integration and continue to receive preferential treatment (i.e. affirmative action, quotas, etc.).

Can't be "the same" and "special/different" at the same time.
