I think Geo has it a bit closer. The current folks get their 'legitimacy' from the pres and likely his top leo, and the previous one for that matter. Good thing these thoughtful protesters didn't make the same mistake the NRA did and allow some time to grieve and heal. The pres' speeches always inspire, don't they?

It must have made you sick to read one of your own turn on you yesterday. nca wrote, 'Without examining more sources of data that look at more than just race as the demographic variable I'd suggest your conclusions are faulty as they are based off of too little information'.

The nerve of that guy. When did a few facts ever get in the way of this pres or his starry eyed voters? Or, does he have special entitlements to change with the feeling, like many demonize Republicans for on the facts?
