...disappointed by Winfrey's support for Obama. Yes, we have to consider that there are men who will vote for anyone but a woman, and especially anyone but Hillary Clinton. But for "O" to support Obama, who's vastly less experienced than Clinton, makes Oprah's decision seem divisive, racist and against the best interests of the country as a whole. This next presidential vote cannot be about color or sex. It's got to be about qualifications. Her choice is an example of reverse racism, a subject white people feel too guilty to discuss.

Many of those I know think that discrimination against whites is a mark of racial solidarity rather than a prejudice to be minimized and eventually abandoned. So I'm doing what I do because I was poor once myself, and I know how the soul of many can be impoverished...
...example, in 2001, a gay student at the College of New Jersey faked death threats to himself and other members of a pro-gay rights student group. In 2004, a professor at Claremont-McKenna College vandalized her own car and spray-painted it with racist and sexist epithets.
