I can not stand it when people refer to a person's manner of speech as "talking white" or their ways as "acting white". Black is not a monolith and we do not all think, act, talk, eat, pray, fuck, sing, dance, vote or manifest anger the exact same motherfucking way. If a black person is running for office that does not automatically mean that she or he is going to make affirmative action, poverty and pay-day loan scams the foundation of their platform. For the record - black America is also complex and there are a lot of policy issues that impact the lives of a majority of black people, which include but are not limited to poverty, affirmative action and pay-day loan scams.

That isn't acting white...speeches about the shit are not examples of talking white...and this bitch is going to move past anger into some serious rage if one more motherfucker insults me and mine through the assertion that only white people discuss the economy, healthcare, the war and international diplomacy. Ralph Nader ought to be ashamed of himself for high-jacking legitimate important policy issues and telling the American people that those are black issues. He ought to be ashamed of himself for putting forth the notion that a black person isn't fully black if they don't act like he expects them to and society has instructed them to. And he should have checked himself before he wrecked himself by jumping onto the `I can say this ig'nant, insulting and racially stereotyping bullshit because I've spent years channeling my white guilt into black people issues!' platform with Geraldine Ferarro and the rest of the I'm-not-a-bigot-I-just-play-one-on-t.v. crowd that lurks within all political parties.
