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.
