HBCUs, Black Voters Figure Prominently In 2008 Presidential Race

There’s consensus among political experts that the location, moderator and audience at last week’s Democratic presidential debate, held at Howard University, forced candidates to discuss solutions to issues concerning Blacks and other minority voters. A second forum for candidates seeking the Republican presidential nomination will be broadcast by PBS in September from another historically Black campus, Morgan State University in Baltimore.

    So much could be said about the high courts latest actions unfortunately this issue is soooooooo significant to spell out a case through this medium is very limiting.

    (Roberts attacked that interpretation, ending his opinion saying: “The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.”)

    I guess Roberts forgot or never heard about the little rock 9. Relevance is that when the United States government decided that race separation in schools hurt everyone the NATIONAL guard had to enforced the FEDERAL law cause white America said oh no you don’t. Similarly we just celebrated June-teeenth, again the government said one thing and the people (absent authority) did what they wanted.

    It’s amost sad to see that some think this is no big deal!

    BUT don’t fret this is what you voted for when you voted for BUSH!
