With the results of the election, and the historic election of a black man to the presidency, something inconceivable in the 60's, it is safe to say that racism in America is a thing of the past.
Just look at the facts. That a man, who's only valid credential was the fact that he is black, can convince America to elect him to the highest office in the land shows clearly that the color of a man's skin has no bearing on the idiotic choices that Americans make. His agenda, or lack thereof, his radical associates, and his non-experience would have doomed a white man long before the primaries had concluded, but now all is well. We have paid our societal debt to the black man, and they should be happy and enfranchised.
But what do you call a group of people who vote based solely on the color of the man's skin? Who riot every time someone looks at them askance? Whose leadership never has a word in support of internecine violence ? These people are the racists, not white Americans anymore, who voted blind to color.
However, I highly doubt that someone like Al will put away his hate industry and go quietly in the night. Like Yertle the Turtle, he will want more ( emperor of the world, perhaps?) and will hopefully end up with the same result, but I digress.
Racism against black people is dead. We should have a funeral for it. We can bury it next to the "N" word.

Is "enfranchised" really a word. I always like to think it is and now that I have seen in on DoctorGreunkern I know I can confidently use it in polite (or maybe even impolite) conversations.
