3. I have absolutely no lost love for Herman Cain

But white people in this country need to stop calling black people "Uncle Toms" -- even black people like Clarence Thomas and Herman Cain.

Few whites have a genuine understanding of what the expression means, and as such, really have no business using it. I am EXTREMELY uncomfortable whenever I see/hear a white person using that phrase.
