This superficial parade of African Americans is making me sick!
I'm as white as you can get, in skin color, not in spirit, how does the average African American feel viewing this phony, self-centered display from a party teeming with racism, from a party deeply invested in keeping minorities down and in their place?

4. A further observation. .
Their phony display is even worse than in 2000, my favorite was last night when they were playing K.C. and the Sunshine Bands - "Get Down Tonight" . . . make a little love, I wonder which form of love they were talking about, the Repub approved version? And watching these tight-assed, no rhythm white repubs try to dance is a scream!

5. The "Chickens for Colonel Sanders" contingent is out in full force.
Personally it makes me sick too see this crap as an AA. But it's important to remember that greed,ignorance, and stupidity knows no color.
