Everytime I see Dean giving a speech I wonder what drugs he is using. This guy is a spaz when giving speeches. As for the minority thing. There are even mor minorities voting republican now than ever before. Yes, it is happening slowly but, as the minorities are getting educated in college and getting better paying jobs they are seeing the truth for what it is. Maybe the shift from being poor to upper middle class and wealthy is helping this? I'm with some of the commenters here about the whining minority thing. I think it will slowly go away as things improve but, it is a problem in my area. Blacks threaten law suits, physical violence etc... when they are turned down for positions that they do not have the education for, or are just plain unqualified for. It worked for one in particular that was always threatening violence and retribution if he did not get what he wanted. He got his brother in law a good job by threats and paper writing. His brother in law eventually lost the job due to failing two drug tests and coming to work drunk. As for the main character, he is now a upper level supervisor. He got the position through threats as usual. City of Leavenworth is scared of this guy, so to shut him up the gave him the position. Sounds like the same c**p I saw in the army. An officer messes up royaly, so to cover up the screw up they promote the idiot to hide it and prevent a court martial of an officer (We can't have that). If an enlisted guy does the same offense it is prison time for him (Really fair world). But, all in all, just hope for the best. In the end it will all be sorted out.
