This is kind of fatalist approach to the issue.

The problem is that we, as a nation, had almost eradicated racism. The Democrats, however, need racism to be alive and well in order to scare minorities into voting for Democrats. The Democrats rely on the fact that they can tell all racial minorities that Republicans are racist and sinister and secretly desire to, as Joe Biden put it in 2012, "put ya'll back in chains".

Most of us, when Obama got elected, were truly and honestly celebrating the election as a some sort of proof that a post-racial America was really arriving. Even me, someone who didn't vote for Obama, cried tears of joy over the story of the White House Butler that finally saw a black man in the White House.

However, within months of Obama's election in 2008, a bunch of Democrat and black academics started with the mantra that Obama's election actually made racism worse in the U.S. and now racism was more virulent. Obama's administration and the Democrat media started saying any disagreement with Obama was rooted in racism. Then Obama started moving to deliberately fracture race relations in the nation with his "cops acted stupidly" remark about Henry Louis Gates arrest.

The point being, most of us are post-racial. It's the Democrat establishment that is trying to bring back racism. It's the Democrat establishment that covered up Obama's (and Keith Ellison's) deep ties to Louis Farakhan, of NOI "White Devils" fame. It's Democrats who are pandering to Muslims to hate Jews in the U.S. It's Democrats like Jesse Jackson who actually said that he was trying to educated racial minority immigrant groups into the ideology that America is fundamentally racist.

The problem isn't race and hasn't been race for a few decades now. The problem is politics. I'll prove it........Would you rather have your Marxist, atheist, relative over to celebrate your child's first birthday party or a black family down the block that is Republican, based and Christian?
