Victor David Hanson makes the point that Wright assumes there are racial differences between whites and blacks. I seem to recall at the start of this campaign the issue was whether Obama was "too white." My how things have changed.
His convoluted explanation of African-American right-brain 'oral' culture as more creative, musical, and spontaneous versus European left-brain traditional analysis could never have been given by someone white to that audience without justifiably earning booing and catcalls.
I see that Michelle Malkin has weighed in. As one growing up through the racial desegregation era, I have been weaned on the idea that stressing differences leads us back to Jim Crow. But Jimmy Carter has no problem with Wright's statements.
