Those racist Democratics

This article from the Commercial Appeal demonstrates the dilemma of the modern Democrat Party . . . slashing with the two-edged sword of racial politics. But Steve Cohen wisely observes,
"The congressional seat should not be the same thing in 2006 as it was in 1974 because you have African-Americans as mayors, judges and other elected officials," Cohen said. "If the African-American community can't share with white progressive Democrats, then there won't be any white progressive Democrats."
I like the sound of that, because there are very few "African-American progressive Democrats."

But, I hope that African-American Democratics will keep demanding that the Democrat Party reflect their values on so-called "social issues." It'd be a lot more pleasant if I didn't have to argue with Democratics about whether an unborn human life was "human" or "living."
