this discussion reminds me of one of the most important classes I ever had in college; it was called The Rhetoric of the Woman's Movement...but, it covered many topics of perceptions...

the most important idea I explored was called the state of "non-consciousness"...explaining very thoroughly how so many of us hold perceptions that we are totally "unconcious" about, and how they creep into our conversations and behaviors all the time, and we truly are not aware at a concious level that we are offending or being politically incorrect because of them.

The course changed my life. It helped me realize that some things from my upbringing might be affecting my present experience. Sadly, many people never become self-aware enough to explore whether or not they are really concious of their perceptions or behaviors. Over the years, I have appreciated that class and that professor more than any other class I had.

My friend, you hit the nail on the head.:clap: "Non-consciousness" is my new term.

The only thing I could find is that Obama can't remember what hospital he was born in.

If anyone knows, please respond.

How can a Harvard graduate not know where he was born? Is this true?

At least his birth was not attended by a witchdoctor like Palin's And how much do you think the GOP will get from the clothes used by Palin's family...I bet working on the oil rigs and moose hunting is hard on the wardrobe...

As I said.

I did not hear this man preaching hate and racism, and I did not see any birth there. Certainly no Reverand Wright. Reverand Wright is an America hater and racist no doubt, I did not see that in ths video.
