Wonder if there is way for VJ to properly recognise white privelege?

Too bad the GOP doesn't think the same way.

Cain: He ran a string of pizza places, no political experience, and couldn't keep it in his pants.

Carson: Famed doctor, no political experience, and the GOP won't back him in the primaires.

West: Politician, until he runs, won't know for sure...

Why are they qualified? Because they're conservatives? 2 out of the 3 aren't even politicians. The same folks saying President Obama isn't experienced are going to back these two, who have even less experience.

SMH at the garbage being spewed in this thread. As a white man it's embarrassing to see the way some white people think and feel towards people of color. No wonder we have such a hard time making progress with race relations.

I feel the same way when I see black people cutting up. Because I know instinctively, THAT's how I'll be judged.

this, in particular, is a real head scratcher..

With Obama leaving the White House, they won't make it. The thrill is gone so to speak...

Totally agree.

The concept of white privilege isn't hard to grasp.

this, in particular, is a real head scratcher..

It's not about experience or policy though is it.

It's about perception and personality.

I am not interested in trying to grasp WP, I just want some.
