As for the bolded, these statements are inaccurate but I don't find them very offensive. These statements have been made about "successful Black people" for generations but mostly by white people. I enjoy Lloyd Marcus' right to express his opinion and, as always, opinions mean nothing to me in the longrun. I put Lloyd Marcus in the same category as the white people (across political leanings) who feel this way: Think what you want, say what you want in certain settings, but do not try to impact "my" life and career.

The hard road= whatever Herman Cain has done to differentiate himself from the liberal black pols.

I personally get annoyed at implications of AA...but then again, as a female who spent 12 years in the military and also works in the science/engineering field, I've had people imply or outright suggest that I am where I am because I'm a woman. That's obviously total BS, and it doesn't take away from my accomplishments, but it still bugs me.

(End of rant.)

I couldn't decide which Herman Cain thread to put this in. I think this thread is appropriate.

LOL. Shut THE hell up, Herman Cain:

Did he really misspell "descendant" in the mailer, or is that MSNBC's error?

LOL. The "scandals" are adding up and Cain may give up his run for the GOP nomination.

Has this HURT his chances? Blah, he already had ZERO chances.

But, if media outlets insist on pretending this scandal has hurt his chances: 0 chances - 100 hurt = -100 chances.
