Lanny Guinear solved the problem. Give blacks five votes. I still can't believe that Bill Clinton removed his nomination of her for the Supreme Court when he left Joyclyn Elders as Surgeon General after she said: "We need to shif money from cancer research to AIDS research. Cuz cancer comes when you're old and takin' out of Social Security. AIDS comes when you young and puttin' into Social Security." Link please?

Nope. Look it up yourself.

BTW, Elders also advocated for banning cigarettes (which counters her point about SS) and legalizing cocaine (her son was arrested for selling).

I posted on this board that Elders should get her own radio talk show. She was great.
