Fixed, for all you English majors....

And, I'm hardly "blacksessed." I actually try to understand different points of view and am just not getting my hands around this one.

Personally i'm just having fun with the blacksessed thing.

The truth is black people are underinformed as voters, just like the average American, unfortunately. Compound that with social pressure to vote Dem and it's a vicious cycle.

That's an oversimplification, of course, but there it is. Working hard every year to change that. If you vote Dem, you vote Dem, but make an informed choice no matter how you cast your ballot.

So you come to an OVERWHELMINGLY majority white male message board to gain perspective regarding blacks. Makes perfect sense.

When you have President who has wrongly played the race card regarding Henry Gates, Trayvon Martin, and Michael Brown, a President who blamed his 15% approval rating decline in YEAR FIVE on race, when you have a football coach fired because the kids were eating watermelon after games, when you have black people refusing to listen to the facts about what happened in Ferguso, MO, etc, etc, etc.

Yes, it's real easy to jump on a message board and "invent" a word like blacksessed in order to avoid talking about the facts of a matter, but the truth is, a lot of Americans are tired of having this stupid, phony bullshite thrown in their faces every day.

Here's another question that everybody will dismiss. When are black people EVER going to be on the right side of any issue? You were made to look foolish regarding your support for Trayvon, your support for Michael Brown, and frankly, how many non-blacks do you think look at 95% of the black community STILL supporting Barack Obama and respect that?

I know my comments will be dismissed by some stupid comment like "blacksessed," but I would rather be able to truthfully discuss the facts, as opposed to being reduced to typing catchphrases in order to avoid discussing the truth.
