Did you get >where you are because you are white? Why would you take offense to that, but >turn around an accuse a black man of attaining his success simply "because he >is black"? If Geraldine Ferraro had said McCain is a candidate only because he >is a "white man", wouldn't you take offense to that? > >What else can't you say, Platt? Seems to revolve a lot around "blacks", doesn't >it? What is it you want to be able to say, but can't? (By the way, you were not >prevented from saying what you said above, were you?) Steve: I don't think he means that he literally can't say it. He does seem to be correct that he can't say it without being written off as a racist.
