tyra banks for president

the funny thing is this supermodel/tv host has more enlightened views on race relations than any of the dc'ers. yesterday's show was entitled 'trading races'. an african-american woman, who shared some of mainstream america's stereotypical views of muslims, was paired with a modern but conservative muslim woman to live a day in her shoes. the black woman spewed many of the same thoughts/ideas/rants westerners feel/think/image
* all muslims are terrorists
* her brothers are loaded with arms

at the end of the day after having to endure ridicule and taunts at the airport, while praying and simply trying to take pictures at tourist spots, she came around. she had a change of heart or a change of mind; whatever you want to call it. as is my customary custom (huh?) i'm reading some huffpost while enjoying a subpar cup of coffee and came across another little diddy on immigration. it baffles me that the general public cannot see past the brown skin of my fellow brothers and sisters and want to build a fence to keep illegal immigrants out. do serious minded individuals think this will work? it will only deter people from crossing at that point; immigrants desperate to leave their impoverished cities for any crack at a better life will find a way to emigrate; whether it be thru dangerous desert terrain or in the back of trucks and semis. explain to me the differing policies related to illegal immigration. why do cubans who make it to our soil after traversing the atlantic in rafts get instant asylum but the haitians who do the same thing are swiftly sent back?
