I'm sad to say that Tavis' round table is not helping the cause at this
time. Of course there is endless justified anger. Unfortunately, this is not the time to be expressing it.

Needless to say, I support Hillary.

This is helping Rove.

1. The Clintons have been helping Rove, by stirring shit ever since they lost
in Iowa.

2. This is helping millions of African Americans

We never have this much time on national television to express ourselves.

All we see all day and all night are White Tweety people telling us how to think and how to feel.

This is OUR Conversation and OUR time to speak.

I listen to Lou and Tweety until we are sick to death and they say so many things that are stuck on stupid!

5. Tavis is always doing his best.
He covers these issues regularly on his show. I have a ton of respect for the man. I don't see how this can be bad at all.

6. Yes! Yes! When we get more representation in the MSM these type of discussions will not be
necessary...and symposiums will be moot because we will all be on equal footing.

Until that happens..its needed

10. The totally JUSTIFIED ANGER will not play well.
If whites feel they are getting lambasted, they will take offense. There are those who have supported the black cause and there are those who use everything they can muster against blacks.

I don't care if that simple fact puts Obama's campaign in a tailspin but it does not help to have Dick Gregory and Al Sharpton defining whites as evil.

No one can legitimately argue that in the history of our country that whites were not evil, or that there are plenty of them around today. The point is that in this campaign season, or anytime, it's counterproductive.

11. It closed well. Let's hope MSM doesn't choose the Gregory or Sharpton
moments to highlight.

If they do, it'll be another clue of where their interest lies for the general.

9. Huh? I don't understand your post.
I'm watching some of the SOTBU and I don't get what you're talking about.
