"You, and people like you, are the only ones who can speak out and alter the trajectory. Everyone else gets branded racist."

While I certainly am delighted to have such a clear thinking American as Mr. Windflier on our side, I have to respectfully disagree with this statement.

We can all help change the trajectory. In certain circles, Mr. Windflier will be more effective because of race considerations (not to mention he certainly "gets it"). However, as is clear from some of his posts, even he is branded a racist for speaking his mind. Sure, non-black conservatives will be more likely to get branded as racist (maybe), but so what?

Uncountably many Americans have literally given their lives to defend our freedom. Subjecting ourselves to a charge of "racist" is a small sacrifice in comparison. That said, I congratulate Mr. Windflier for clearly being willing to make it. Let's follow his example and accept that burden, too, and not let it keep us from speaking out in defense of our freedom - freedom for all Americans regardless of race from bloated overbearing government.

You made me get something in my eye with that. I hadn't even stopped to consider that my melanin deprived brethren would likely feel just as responsible for spreading the conservative word to the minority community as I do.

Thank you so much for your kind words and your courageous stand for our Founding Principles.
