Actually "hispanics" is one of the stupidest classifications ever invented by ignorant americans. Which hispanics? We classify as "hispanics" people descended from portuguese and spanish families that would be considered "whites" if they had come directly from europe. The same is true for mideasterners: whites if they come directly from the mideast and "hispanics" if they are amongst the millions of mideasterners living in Latin America.
The very fact that such a classification exists simply demonstrates the extent to which racism is still hardwired into american society. Compare this to Brazil, where the earlier racism between "hispanics" and "blacks" has largely been overcome.
"Racism" still exists in America because it is a useful tool for corrupt polticians trying to keep us dumb and docile as they fleece us.
Like Obama. We have been hoodwinked...Bamboozled! They're trying to bamboozle us!
The only people who keep racism alive are Obama supporters who insist that ANYONE who doesn't WORSHIP him is a racist. If you are stupid enough to call Bill Clinton a racist...then you have to be an Obama supporter.
Think about this though. Clinton had big support in the black community and now it's wiped out. Wouldnt you be mad? Why not bring up race? Right? You know that there are still a lot of people who have undercover fears about race. I mean just look at any website that posts information about this election. Ten folks are bound to make some racist comment. So what do you call someone who purposely uses this fear to scare people into thinking that maybe Obama is "too black"? A racist eh, maybe not but it sure and wholesome and honest.
Plus WHEN Obama wins the nomination we know race WILL be a bigger issue but the Clintons just started fanning those flames. Sad really.
