i had a rather nasty run in with him. he accused me of being a fake. in retrospect i can see where i "lead with the chin"
it's hard to be objective when you're being attacked, but i've since cooled off and i respect his opinions. he's a little
too conservative for my taste, but nonetheless, he's a smart dude.
btw it's not unusual for race to trump ideology. contextually afro americans have had very few voices in positions of
REAL POWER. our leaders have a genius for creating the illusion of equity.
