Yeah, that does happen and my opinion is that in Washington it happens a lot and I think it's not only done to blacks, but it happens to those that some feel hasn't served their time in Washington, it seems Bernie Sanders was done that way. When it comes to Ben Carson I don't say damn look what that black man has achieved, I see him as a respectful man that has achieved some amazing things and is a person I call a great role model for anyone. In 1973 I was in the 3rd grade in the public school system and my mid & year end achievement test scores dropped so bad my parents had me tested that summer before starting 4th, and I'm very fortunate to have the parents I do they put me in a private parochial school, damn what a change that was, and in that system grade school is 1-8th, then you go to the High School 9-12th and it was 75% white 25% black and in those 4 years I never saw a fight never heard one racial comment, it was more like an extended family and it still that way today, we have our own Facebook Group, we had our 30 year reunion a couple of years ago and the attendance is like 80%, six of them are doctors and Tracy who is black owns and built an OBGYN Clinic in Dallas that's amazing, but my point is we never viewed each other by race and another thing was that we all had in common was our parents raised us to be respectful and they cared about our education they were paying a lot of money for, plus the teachers knew that and hell we even won the Tennessee class A state football championship my junior year 13 - 0. I don't refer to my friends as my black friend Tony, he's my friend Tony, but back to Ben Carson and other successful blacks why do other blacks view them as uncle tom or a trader because they have different views/ opinions than the majority, and I've even seen/heard it in the private corporate world.

The Ben Carson's of the world makes me want to puke! There I said it! This guy with all of his brilliance represents the cynical dumbing down of blacks in general. You see to be a esteemed black in the GOP you must be a race traitor. I dare anyone on OPP to produce evidence that they are not. Ask Colin Powell.
