One rarely sees the words "Pat Buchanan" and "honest discussion about race" in close proximity, but Noel Sheppard does so in a June 3 NewsBusters post, declaring that Buchanan's assertion that, in Sheppard's words, "it's acceptable for blacks to vote for Barack Obama because he's black, but racist for whites to vote for Hillary Clinton because she's white" (which Sheppard insisted was "a consistent media theme") to be "likely a far more honest discussion about race and racism in this nation then what Obama offered to the American people on March 18 when he tried to explain his connection to Rev. Jeremiah Wright."
Does Sheppard also think Buchanan's recent claim that blacks aren't grateful enough to whites for hauling them out of Africa as slaves is an similarly "honest" assessment of "race and racism"?
