ignorance is NOT a/the "race card"... if it were, then every ignorant person is 
racist... i don't think that's what you meant to say...

no... that's not the PC way to accomplish this... affirmative action is to help 
minorities...

 GD> There is no CEN Caucasian Entertainment Network.
 GD> but there is a BET Black Entertainment Network.

BET was created by PoC for anyone who cares to watch it... if you want a CEN or 
CET then go found one just like Robert Johnson and Shelia Johnson did in 
1979... you might also note that BET lost its "black-owned" status in 2001 when 
Viacom bought it for 3Million US dollars...

 GD> Advancement of Colored People.

so go create one...

wait... what? are you now putting words in someone's mouth that they didn't 
say? weren't you just getting on another posted about doing that? didn't you 
say that you prefer to see/hear them and make your decisions based on that 
instead of what you think they might say?

Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set 
them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
