RQ goes where journalists and blogger boyz fear to tread

And actually talks to black people.

Tonight's conversation with my African American Neighbor:

Me: Hey Kare can I ask you something?

Karen: Sure Lizbeth

Me: What do you think about Hillary/Obama?

Karen: Well, we're split. I like them both. But my problem with Obama is that he ain't never lived in no ghetto. He don't get how hard it is for people like me.

Me: True enough. But hey Karen, I keep hearing from white guys that if we don't give Obama the nomination, black people are are gonna rise up and riot violently.

Karen: You know us. You live here. It ain't gonna happen.

Me; That's what I thought.
