Excerpt: "I date white women exclusively. Well, I should say "non-African American women" exclusively. So, I guess I'm what you call a sell out. Why?…"

Excerpt #2: "Are there any true black Republicans? And if the answer is yes then WHY?? I cannot and will not ever understand why any minority would vote for Bush. And why any minority would support him. It's also no different why Jesse Helms continues to win in the state of North Carolina. Will the real Uncle Tom please stand up?"

Excerpt #3: "Venus Williams' success on the tennis courts is no less impressive than some of our male athletes in different sports but we don't seem to give her the same esteem."
