I do not understand how diversity and affirmative action etc. could be so offensive however kidnaping people and enslaving them for over 400 years is ok?

Not to mentioned the genocide of the natives who originally inhabited this land.

I am sure that you are experts at discrimination and bigotry since you are responsible for popularizing it and profiting from it.

As far as Obama providing a grant, that would be a small presidential incentive in comparison to the opportunities created for you by “Your founding fathers”.

There is only one thing to say, 400 plus years of free labor from minorities, I would call that a head start!

Hi Debbie!

You should look at NHRA (National Hot Rod Association). One of their best drivers is Ashley Force Hood. She has won two races so far this year and is number two so far going into the championship this year.

what about the NHL? lets get some brothers on the ice.

so, they think by putting inexperienced drivers to the head of the class because of race and sex is going to suddenly make all women and minorities want to watch NASCAR?

what are they stupid?

If they are not already going to the races or watching adding the token driver is not going to help.

There are a lot of women who already watch NASCAR and guess what? their favorite driver is not the woman. So adding a bunch of affirmative action drivers to cover all the bases is not going to help. It may push some really good drivers out of the sport.

But what the hell, we have lowered the standards for everything else in this country from President to Fireman and it hasn’t caused any problems….. right?

Jesse Jackson should volunteer as a crash test dummy. Also, I wonder how much Jesse was able to extort under the table, or through consultant fees for his services. Mr. Jackson does not normally do anything unless it benefits him personally.

NASCAR needs to send Jackson down the road again. He has no leverage in the sport unless Teleprompter Jesus steps in. The NASCAR fan base is largely white since it seems there’s some sort of genetic imperative that drives those of a Scots Irish persuasion to enjoy stock cars. Having said that, there is always a small contingent of blacks and hispanics at the races who are invariably treated as well as any other fan [Bristol, Charlotte, Las Vegas, Talladega, Daytona so far]. As for racism, if one is referring to the Confederate battle flag flying in limited numbers in the parking or RV lots, it’s less about the blacks and more about the South. As for the Colombian, Scots Irish are traditionalists. That’s the tradition. As for the Colombian, once he can place high without the wild swerving, he’ll get his just due. Look how the fans treat Shrub. And, you don’t get much whiter than he.

And, Vato, I’m not sure politically correct behavior telegraphs societal evolution. It just reflects ongoing erosion of the First Amendment by the left.

Santa…imagine today. You simply couldn’t call an African American “Willie T. Ribs” that is insulting by today’s standards. Remember the TV show M*A*S*H (first season) had a character named “Spear-Chucker?”. Societally, we have come quite a ways…..
