I am an older white woman, a retired teacher.

279. I am not sure what is going on, but bravenak is one of my fave people here so, i will say this

98% of ALL problems in America, and maybe on the planet, are from Older white, right-wing protestant str8t males and some Women...in my opinion

Now I know I am older than bravenak, and while I am not on social security yet, I am close.

And I am white, and I am str8t and, well I am atheist so 3 out of 4 aint bad.

Are there TONS AND TONS of AWESOME older white people, yes, I think I am one of them

Sounds like the OP of this thread may also be, dont know, dont know her or him...

For instance, Black people are NOT backers of ALEC, Gay people are NOT contributors to the Heritage Foundation, on the whole anyway, the people who are in the teaparty and these other rightwing fascist organizations are almost EXCLUSIVELY white, and most are older and most are men, though many Women too.

I dont want to tear apart our party or group, but as a white, str8t male in America, I havent a clue, not one, about discrimination or prejudice or racism, I know others live it but I dont, so if someone from a group tells me an issue exists, I listen.
