I presume no such thing, you're projecting

It's my understanding that Ferguson is a community in transition, with Blacks moving in and Whites moving out, so it will proably take a couple of election cycles before the makeup of the government reflects this


So when you say more blacks are coming in and more whites are going out and that will change the demographics of the leadership, you're not proposing as CNN did that blacks vote for blacks and whites vote for whites and anything not matching this should lead to questions. Got it...

I didn't PROPOSE anything, but I do understand the relationship between demographics and politics. When Obama was elected, it marked the first time in history that a democratic nation had ever elected a member of a racial minority to head of state in a free and fair election. Why do YOU think this doesn't happen more often Furthermore, no democratic nation in history has ever elected a racial or religious minority group to the majority of the seats in its legislative body. Why is that?
