WTF?

Did Barack Obama just say (well, strongly imply) that white racism (which I'm parsing as "racism by whites") wasn't endemic?

I mean, really?

Yup.

As I said earlier today, I am not impressed. If he's really as wide-eyed as he sounds, I'm going to have to reconsider voting for him.

However, as others in the linked thread point out, the speech does push the bounds of mainstream racial discourse. Which I guess is good?
