>From the NYT:
"… Mr. Obama’s friends ... warned that he _risked alienating

As Ray Charles once asked,
"What did I say?"
Dave Chappelle's skit featuring the quiz-show,
"I Know Black People"
is also relevant. And 1619-1965 is longer than 1965-2012.

to come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
