A BLACK leader can stand up and say, "Boy ... pull UP those pants, get a job and take care of your babies!!" and get applause even in East St Louis. I would not get the same response in the same place. I do NOT think that difference is racism. I think it is standing in the community.

It is racism.  It's textbook racism:  holding one race as superiour to another.  



If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. - Federalist 51
