The liberal, progressive White folks who dot the political landscape of the Left are, in my - an nearly half-century old Black man’s honest, humble opinion . . . simply better people, far-better human beings, more advanced, civilized creatures - then the conservative (racist/sexist & elitist) White people who populate the political Right in American life.
You may not dig this, but dig this: There’s absolutely no debate about it. My Hippie is better then your Redneck.
If Ann Coulter speaks for most of tight-laced and tight-assed White America . . . and horrifically, she does - well then Herman Cain represents . . . he’s the poster boy, and I do mean boy for exactly what “mainstream” White folks use to mandate, hell demanded - and still today behind closed doors yearns for; that simpler-time when Negroes knew and accepted their assigned place.
Cain’s that ole-fashion child-like minstrel donning a top-hat n’ White gloves, another Ward Connolly, Larry Elder or Thomas Sowell - a spineless chocolate scarecrow with a “for sale” tag pinned to his black ass - a willing and wanting human chess piece who’s adopted and embraced angry White America’s prescribed subservient lot in life for him and his.
Yeah, you bet, that’s the way millions of Real Americans take their Black folks . . . watered-down, obedient, tame, submissive, gentle . . . ignorant of the facts, manageable, pimp-able, alas exploitable. Any middle school US History textbook will spell that centuries-old desire out.
White America has a documented track-record of liking it’s Blacks a certain docile manner . . . Joe Louis was preferred over Jack Johnson, Dr. King over Malcolm X, Smokin Joe over Ali, Flag-waving Big George Foreman over Black fisted Tommy Smith and John Carlos and Booker T. over WEB Dubois . . .
Believe me, I’ve weighed, measured and pounded all the White folks in the room, and with that being said I can descend from the dark attic with the burning-bush truth . . . we liberal and progressive Black folks have got the best White folks America’s got to offer on our side, standing with us . . . Bill Maher, Phil Donahue, Emeril Legasse, Helen Keller, Keith Garret, Father Michael Pfledger, David Hartman, Robert Downey Jr. ,Thom Wise, Tenna Marie, Elanor Roosevelt, Michael Moore, Andrew Hacker, Dave Zirin . . . .
I’ll take a White man who can roll n’ stroll in another man’s moccasins, who can empathise with the rest of the world which rightfully resents the European imperialism and colonialism virtually every Continent is still reeling from . . . over a man who still believes as Imperialist icon South African Cecil Rhodes did a hundred years ago: "I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race...If there be a God, I think that what he would like me to do is paint as much of the map of Africa British Red as possible...
My bleedin’ heart Liberal is better then your Good ol boys . . . .
That’s right, there’s no question about it; I’ll take an Hillary Clinton over a Michell Bauchman or a dim-witted Jungle Fever stricken Sarah Palin any day, and I’ll even take a patronizing, condescending Harry over low life weasels like Rush Limbaugh, Big George W. n’ Little Dick Cheney any day . . . , any day. I’ll stand side by side with the Occupy Wall Street Movement before I’d step in from the rain for a TEA Bagger . . . .
I’d rather lock-arms and do-business with folks of the Caucasian persuasion who don’t commemorate the Confederacy, nor suggest we, no not merely turn-back the clock on the progress made by FDR, MLK, JFK, and LBJ - but rather rip the damn clock right-off the wall.

I can break-bread with folks who want women to have a choice, and who don’t have a problem eating, riding or shopping with Black or Brown folks. I’ll hold the ground with Commie pinko Liberals who believe Health Care ought not be for only the top 5% of Americans while maintaining providing a quality education is the cornerstone of a civilized people, and I’ll stand with those who oppose unbridled capitalism.
I know, call me crazy. but my wilting Flower Child is better then your angry White man . . . .
