please refer to:

but you need to know something about Washington, D.C.

Most of the the lower level federal staff are black, so there are black people everywhere. Many of the Capitol police are black.

Traditionally, the managerial class is white, the support black, the unique system of our nation's capital.

This whole thing is much ado about nothing.

I've been through the security systems at the OEOB, next to the White House. Badges are everything.
