American Idol

Well here is one thing that has not changed since the end of racism. I finally found something on television that I could recognize from before. American Idol. It still has it’s little “piece of America” panel of judges (including an immigrant, even). It has contestants from all walks of life, black, white, Asian, Latino, short, tall, fat, ugly, beautiful, smart, dumb as bricks, talented and severely untalented. And people still rush to vote for the candidate they support the most. It's hard to believe that our vision for the country was right there in front of us all along.

Oh Idol. I can’t wait to see the audition shows for the new season.
