Yesterday in Berlin, Barama started his speech in part by saying he "didn't look like the other Americans" who had come to that spot.
What did he mean?
Was he using a lame racial cliche and implying that all white people look the same?
Or was he reminding us that his platform and the main reason he feels he should be allowed to be president is because he is half-black? It seems when it is convenient, Barama has no problem playing the race card while we just sit back like a bunch of Yorkshire Terriers and bob our heads back and forth.
We are seriously lame and we should be embarassed not by our mono-linguistics but by the ease with which we slip into cults of personality.
