Walter Williams looks at how most white politicians talk down to black audiences.

Have you watched some white politicians talking to black audiences? It's bad enough to watch the Revs. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson do an imitation of Flip Wilson's Rev. Leroy. But to watch Al Gore and Bill Clinton do it is insulting at the least. They don't talk to white audiences that way. As a matter of fact, Sharpton and Jackson don't talk to white audiences that way, either -- talking about going from the outhouse to the White House and from disgrace to amazing grace and other such nonsense. By the way, after addressing the NAACP's 95th annual convention in Philadelphia, Kerry gave the audience the black power clenched-fist salute. I wonder whether his white audiences get the black power salute as well.
