Did Joe say anything about the unemployment among blacks being 13,8% under Obama - nearly double that of the rest of the country?

Did Jesse say anything about his convicted felon congressman son?

Did Al mention his tax cheating?

Fine group of fellows to hold up for role models.

Racism isn't restricted to the 9 mostly southern states affected by the Voting Rights Act. It also isn't restricted to the race in the majority. If the VRA is such a wonderful thing then why didn't Congress extend it to the entire country when they renewed it in 2006?

The only minority voters the new voter ID laws want to disenfranchise are those who are deceased and those fraudulently voting multiple times in each election.
