(1,048 posts)Few people in your acknowledge their privilege and I absolutely adore people who can. I am a lighter skinned man of color and even I acknowledge the privilege I have in being treated better and not having the negative issues that most darker people of color have. I just love it when people acknowledge their privilege. Thank you.

If, heaven forbid, Trump is elected, many will look back and see that.

and how do those sentiments not make a mockery of The Administrator's admonition here:
Regardless of whether you supported a winning candidate or a losing candidate, do not prolong the agony of the last Democratic presidential primary by continuing to pick fights, place blame, tear down former primary candidates, bait former supporters, or do anything else to pour salt on old wounds.

Thank you in advance.

(25,816 posts)Don't worry, I'll vote for our nominee.
That vote is my support. You're welcome. The OP was a hypothetical question
about the future. That in no way has anything to do with now, or Skinners
statement.

As a result of our history we can see the Trump threat more clearly than most.
