...black, not white.

A funny thought occurred to me when vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin paraded her unmarried pregnant 17-year-old daughter at the Republican convention. I liked that. No reason to hide her away. Palin has every right to be proud of her daughter. And the untimely pregnancy isn't being held against anyone by the Republican faithful. But I have to ask myself, what if Barack Obama and his wife had an unmarried pregnant teen-age daughter? My guess is that the Republicans would have made a big issue of it. Because the Obamas are Democrats and, yes, they are black, not white. --Jim Broede
