Writer's political discourse makes unintended impact
I assume Helio Salvador (letter, "Race makes a difference in presidential election," Feb. 25) meant to make a point to a particular audience in his ramblings.
Where did he obtain his data when he can say, "every one of them had a rotten excuse for not voting -- too hot, too cold, too windy ..."?
But thanks, Mr. Salvador, for solidifying my choice with your next assessment of the political arena: "This time, because blacks see there are chances for one of them to be nominated, they are voting with such an enthusiasm, risking to nominate a black person who, by virtue of his race, is not yet electable in this country ..."

Gail,
As you prove, there is a funny thing about racism--you can paint the outhouse, but the smell is still in there. Nice try at painting over your beliefs.
