Mirror Images
Now that progressives have run out of excuses for Obama's betrayal of trust, we might be able to examine the phenomenon that produced both Barack Obama and Condoleeza Rice as political icons. It's really not that difficult when one is willing to look at their mirror images; riding the wave of affirmative action through elitist institutions of higher education, Barack and Condi sold their souls to corporate America, and were then fast-tracked to political stardom. When all is said and done, token Black icons are not a new phenomenon, phony Nobels notwithstanding.
