I have two disparate points to make.
First the Gore thing. I don't know what has gone on behind the scenes between Gore and Lieberman since the last election, so I am not going to try and guess the reason for the endorsment and how it was made.
Second, I heard a disheartening stat today. Of AAs in Minnesota who are of voting age, 20 percent are ineligible because of felony convictions. The percentage for non-AAs is only 1 percent.
Add that to the stat already stated that only 20 percent of the eligible AA voters vote, that is a huge issue.
