Stereotypes and the Democratic Primaries...

Wonkette weighs in today with a stunning piece on Hillary Clinton's gamma manipulation of video in her anti-Barry Obama ads! Apparently, Obama gets a generous "tan" to render his Clinton-lensed swarthyness even an gnarlier/nastier shade of black! All this of course as an election-season as a follow-up to an earlier post on Mexican-colored band-aids. Lesson learned? Never underestimate the complexity of race and ethnicity in the backstory and future tales of our Americas.
