what some white folks say...."they all look the same...." (grins)

ive reformatted the text to more clearly indicate it's a quote from rangel describing his experience while attending the republican national convention in nyc a few weeks ago.

although rangel is very likely not as well known as jackson, sharpton or don king, to my eye theres no similarity between him and the others. to confuse them, id conclude one would have to be mighty white.

Wow. I'm embarassed for the both of them. I can't believe anybody would actually think he was any of them. They must've been high.
