You can't go wrong with a column by Victor Davis Hanson....he sees the truth and explains it in a really nice way....
The Rules of Racialists Part Two Works and Days
5) Good and Bad Racists
When politics is thrown into the mix, race becomes even more absurd. Or rather when the matter hinges on full-fledged support for the lavish redistributive state, exemption is extended to racists. Clarence Thomas, a real product of the Jim Crow South and unmistakably black, is periodically slurred by elite blacks as a sellout for his skepticism of big-government redistribution. Authentically black would include Barry Dunham Obama and Eric Holder, whose ancestries are mixed and not of the Old South. Joe Biden can insult Punjabis. Both Harry Reid and Joe Biden can talk sloppily and in racist fashion of “clean” and “articulate” blacks and “Negro dialects.” But we know that in their liberal hearts such disturbing language can only be harmless. Had Mitt Romney mouthed such racialism, his candidacy would have ended then and there — as would that of any black conservative who said something as insensitive about whites.
