Full Disclosure: I'm voting for Edwards

Yesterday, I posted No, I'm Not Waiting For White Approval in which I expressed my dismay at how the media and others were attacking african american thought capital by insinuating that blacks were waiting to see what white voters were thinking before voting. I also made reference to Bill Clinton referring to Obama as kid, although I specifically said "boy" in my post.

More over the flip....

In this election, much has been analyzed, over-analyzed, and some has just been plain wrong, in the bubble analysis. But one thing I have seen that is, imo, dangerous is this notion that African Americans are waiting for Whites to approve of all things political before we may speak to it. It is a vestige of slavery, Jim Crow, and the like.

This has got to stop. We talking about possibly electing the first african american president. Yet we are still suggesting that some how black people are waiting for white approval.

No, I'm not waiting for white approval.....
