#3 Obama said students are sometimes discouraged from "reading too much" or "speaking so properly" because of "the notion of 'acting white.'"

Rigorous academic study and achievement are not necessary when Affirmative Action becomes the promise. Looking white is simply a modern cultural taboo.

The esteemed African-American social reformer, orator, writer and statesman the late Frederick Douglas is a good example.

#4 Is it still legal for a black person to act or assimilate into the larger culture if they want to, e.g. not be racist, not be bothered by being called a racist or an Uncle Tom, give up notions of a thug culture, become well-educated, speak well, embrace America and believe in the Constitution, love liberty and freedom, and wear your pants up around your waist rather than down around your butt?

#6 President Barack Obama told a group of young black, Hispanic, Native American and Asian men that they need be proud of their backgrounds and draw strength from their cultures, but ignore people who accuse them of "acting white."

Guess those poll numbers really do suck. Someone is paying attention in the crisis room. Got to get the message out to herd enough back on to the ~~plantation~~ party with sweet talk rather than the usual ~~ten minutes of hate~~ demagoguery.
