What happened to “equal protection under the law?”
Sorry white folks, you can’t play your Race Card during a Black Presidency. “There are career people who feel strongly that it is not the voting section’s job to protect white voters,” the lawyer said. “The environment is that you better toe the line of traditional civil rights ideas or you better keep quiet about Read more
