Amazing! Whereas, *proportionately*, it's actually... who? The poor 
green Martians?

Look again. I don't know anything more about this guy than a few news 
snippets and what I just saw on that rather rousing video, but it's 
obvious that he's not what anyone with cone receptors would 
spontaneously call "black"--and his anger at the end is clearly 
directed at those bigots (his word) of his own community who 
presumably have said he's "not black enough" and, also presumably, 
that Obama is not black enough. Hillary, he points out, "has never 
had her own people say she's not white enough." (Of course, he's 
neglecting the many humans of all hues who tell her that she's "not 
male enough," but also "not youthful and pretty enough," and that 
she's "too male".) Take another look. Get it?
