Much Clearer Now

[DianeK]

* If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're

'exotic, different.'



* Grow up in Alaska eating moose burgers, a quintessential American

story.



* If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.



* Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.



* Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.



* Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well

grounded.



* If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become

the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter

registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend 12

years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State

Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become

chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee,

spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a

state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving

on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's

Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.



* If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city

council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000

people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000

people, then you're qualified to become the country's second

highest ranking executive.



* If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while

raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches,

you're not a real Christian.



* If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left

your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're

a Christian.



* If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education,

including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the

fiber of society.



* If , while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with

no other option in sex education in your state's school system

while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant , you're very

responsible.



* If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position

in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner

city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your family's

values don't represent America's.



* If you're husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one

DWI conviction and no college education, who didn't register to

vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated

the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely

admirable.



OK, much clearer now.

1. I think this came from the thread expaining what white privilege

is. It's very well done.
