    what baffles me is today there are so many mixes of races that im not sure where i belong im a 1/4 white/ 1/4 black 1/4 mexican and a 1/4 asian what im getting at is the media is the center of segregation, they need to stop reporting the numbers on everything related to race. or even stop referencing color or race in any media message. if nobody talked race or color it wouldnt matter anymore. the media makes me think where do i belong not my peers

    i think one of the most effective way to slow down racism would be to stop the media from segragating races. example would be just about everyday on radio tv i hear stats on white black and latino asian other. if these stats would not be taken which segragates races there would be a slow down in racism which starts from segregation.

    Too bad that "our man in Tampa" is a high-tax, big-government republican and not the real thing. But, then again, most republicans in Nevada fall into that category.
