I guess because you accuse me of being a racist, that means I must be--is that your logic?

I think racism is used much as the Soviets used to use people that called "useful idiots"--people who unwittingly further the Soviet cause without knowing it.

Do I believe that there is zero racism? NOT at all. But I don't believe its the primary motive for all non-white behavior.
I have been opposed to left wing policies since Goldwater--and most liberal politicians over the years have been white. I was only accused of racism when Barack Obama began his run. Does that make me a racist, or simply a paleo Conservative?
Stop making racism the cause for every issue, and I'll stop reminding you of W. Wilson, and M. Sanger. ( but if you look at what they wanted, you will see the democrats have managed to make considerable progress toward their goals.)
