What does that word even mean anymore? I don't really care either way. I'm black. I've been called a nigger once in my life. It was in the fifth grade by a really fat white kid I had kicked in the twins for throwing a rock at my little sister. I didn't really care, as he was the one doubled over in pain.

Have you ever heard of Carlos Slim? Have you ever heard of his companies, Carso Global Telecom or America Movil Cell Phone Co? I hadn't. Well, this year he overtook Warren Buffet as the world's second richest man at $53.1 Billion.

I wonder which our country is ready for...a black president or a female president. It's a very hard question to answer. I would hope we are ready to accept a black man for president, but sadly, I don't believe it's true. You need only look at the comments spewed by Don Imus to realize that.

In my opinion, Imus should be held personally resposible for what he said. I firmly believe that it was WRONG. MSNBC was right to take his show off the air. It's just too bad that it will still be on the radio. It was severely disrespectful to women, particularly black women. It was such a hurtful thing for someone in his position to say.
