Enjoy your racism and paranoia and never mind the facts.

children.

I live in Flint, Michigan, somewhere in the top 10 nationwide for crime rate.
We're the only white family in this neighborhood, and have been for over 20
years. You're welcome to come here & go for a walk; you'll be safe.

When will people figure out that the only color that matters is green?

You cannot reason with a hater. They get some kind of perverse satisfaction
from believing that other people are inferior. But they also have to endure
lifelong sadness from knowing deep down that their children are ashamed of
them and decent people shun them.

Daugherty calls Lester's inability to find a high level of Nextel Cup
sponsorship "inexplicable."

"He's as qualified as a lot of guys sitting in some of those (Nextel)
Cup
rides," Daugherty says. "Age might be hurting Bill a little bit, (but) a
lot
of times owners are scared of taking a chance on sticking a kid, who may
wash out, in a Busch or (Nextel) Cup car. Corporate America just isn't
ready
to take a lot of chances with their dollars on a non-known entity."

Lester says he's frustrated at not having been able to land a major
sponsor
that might enable him to get superior equipment or a place on a Nextel
Cup
team.

"It's a little disappointing that companies, especially those that are
Afro-American-owned or -directed, are risk-adverse and don't see that
their
product could be served in this environment," he says. "Everybody kind
of
preaches diversity and talks diversity, but when it's time to put up or
shut
up, most people run with their tail between their legs."

Lester can't even cut it the Truck Series and he wants a full time ride
in
CUP. Brad Dougherty is a joke as well.

the drive for diversity what a promotional joke.

Posts like this are not helping the cause.

*shakes head*

Sometimes, I am ashamed to be a NASCAR fan.

Absolutely (see top post). As far as Lester is concerned there is no cause.

He proved himself to be totally mediocre in his truck rides. If there even
needs to be a "drive for diversity" it should at least bring up deserving
drivers through the ranks. At least show some promise in a regional
series...then CTS. Stuff has really changed as far as NBS is concerned over
the past couple of years. It's no longer the stepping stone to Cup that is
used to be with more than half the field in many cases consisting of Cup
regulars who refuse to leave the series.
