Allow me to be totally ignorant -- I don't understand the use of 'endemic' in this context. What do you understand it to mean? Because I have no idea, so I can't comment either way!
I thought that the unspoken rule was neither side would mention race? Has that been completely abandoned now?
Personally I've decided to stop caring about the Democrat side of the election, because it is too painful watching the party tear itself apart. It makes me feel even more powerless than usual. I think it's time I started looking for good aspects in the Republican chap because it looks as if that's who we're going to get saddled with.

Yup.
