"And that is because of the color of their skin ?"

Color seems to have little to do with it, Vijay Singh being darker than most American Negroes and my wife's Indian doctor being darker than Obama.

"Or because it an easy way out when you see the results of trying to create two separate societies in this country based upon race."

Differences are more cultural than racial, although Negroes don't do well anywhere, whether in Haiti or Rwanda or South Central. Perhaps there is a genetic element to their inability to play peacefully with themselves and others. Don't know. We do know that someone like Obama, half white and raised white, does fine in this country getting educated, speaking English, and wearing a suit. Maybe there's a lesson there, the same one Bill Cosby and Jason Whitlock have been teaching for years.
