was Kanye West's comment that Bush didn't care about black people.

Not 9/11. Not invading Iraq. Not fighting for a presidency that the people clearly gave to
Gore. Not so many other stumbles, bungles, crony deals or war crimes. Just one person's claim that he was indifferent to black people.

Is there a reason for us to believe that then or now he DID/DOES care about black people, not to mention all of the not-black people who want our country to be fair and just to all Americans?
