Most Americans (of any color) can now see that Obama is a stumbling token; the teleprompter (especially the damage he did to his image when speaking without it) was a dead giveaway. His recent campaigning has erased any doubts.
When I order supplies at my job, I can’t believe the wholesalers identify which suppliers are minority/women owned businesses. Rather than buy from them (they often have similar or higher prices anyway, for the increased overhead of unqualified tokens), I simply buy from the larger operators where merit matters more than race/gender.
But if you work for the gov't you are under contract to order from such suppliers, yes?
