1. It's obvious, isn't it?

Clearly, Cornel West is a racist.

Unless ofcourse he happens to be cheering for the team, then he's a-okay!

3. Answer to what? Your picture of West in front of corporate banners?

What is the answer you are looking for exactly? I would think that instead of being worried about West (who is for the most part totally irrelevent today) appearing in front of corporate banners you would be more concerned about the fact that Obama will likely have the first ever billion dollar campaign. Many of the contributions for that billion dollars will of course come from corporate donors.

But no, you're not worried about that are you? You're more worried about what some guy said about Obama. A guy who most americans aren't even aware of.

People like you, and this bullshit outrage any time someone says something about democrats thats hits a bit too close to home, is what's wrong with this country. The problem with this country and where it's heading is certainly not the fault of West.
