I think the election of a black man to the presidency just exposed the myth that America is racist. I think we all have been lying to ourselves about racial equality. We have actually noy been looking at race as much as we say. The proof is in the ease of the election and the votes. Sure there is racism in America but it is not as dominant as I have been told. In this day and age it was easy for a black man to become president. It can't really be a bigger deal than even refusing to give up a seat on a bus. The biggest moves in racial equality came long before Obama's historic win, and they didn't come so easy.

Dax, I've heard the Asians and dogs jokes, as it seems you have too, but how do you link Hispanics and cats? I haven't heard that one before. C'mon. You can tell me. Just pretend we're in your living room.

I didn't. You did when Wake wrote:
"When are we gonna elect a Hispanic president? And how about an Asian American president?"
and you responded with:
"When are we gonna elect a dog? A cat?"
Is that the equivalent of an Asian and a Hispanic?

If someone said "Let's elect Aint" to something, and someone else replied "Let's elect a baboon" would you find no correlation in the statements? The cquating of you with a baboon may be false and inappropriate, but it's a comparison showing the mindset of the speaker.

The mindset is properly displayed above. Italicized for context, too.

Dax, what I see lacking in those comments by Aint is common sense. Are you surprised? I'm not,lol.

Obviously Aint has me confused with one of his neighbors or a relative. Although I am indeed originally from the wonderful and often backward leaning state of Mississippi, I now reside in Oklahoma which is even more backward and Republican but not so wonderful as I thought back when I initially moved here.

I still have both eyebrows, and my Corolla definitely does NOT have a camper top wedged into the trunk. An inferior camper shell that size would be of little use to me now since I sold both my Bluetick coon dogs at the same time I sold my Nissan pickup truck.

As for the mindset that dogs are indeed smart enough to be president, that only proves that Aint has a near profound understanding of the intelligence and uncanny skill of the Southern American hunting dog. If in the future a hound dog in either party runs for president, it will surely get my vote and a sizable campaign donation.
