This is so sad!! I am truly embarrassed for the person who wrote this and any person who believes this. This "research" is similar to the dissertation produced almost a century ago claiming that African Americans were not biologically capable of leadership or intelligence. Evidence to support such an absurd conclusion included the shape of our skulls, bone density, etc. Such research was absolutely crippling to American social progress. However, as time passed, it was soon discovered that such research was a "hack" from the beginning laced with all sorts of biases and prejudices. I will not be surprised if Dr. Horton is an extreme conservative, who if he were alive 100 years ago, would would have also bought into the "research" back then. Just accept the fact that leadership and intelligence is not a exclusive "trait" for non-White Americans. As an African American woman, I actually gave McCain a fair shake. However, when McCain chose Palin as his VP (and as I learned more about her), I realized that McCain was NOT the best choice. In fact, I felt insulted and manipulated. It is very clear that McCain tried to employ a little "hypnotic" strategy himself when he chose Palin. She was clearly chosen for "manipulative" purposes (i.e. get the Clinton supporters and far-right conservatives). Whereas Obama chose a VP based on who would best serve the country in the event he cannot complete his term. Now that's a leader!! McCain chose Palin because he was behind in the polls. So, where is your analysis of the immorality of McCain? Such hypocrites!! Although I am an Independent, I have come to view Republicans as the party of miseducation and misinformation. Just down right ignorant! And it's sad because such was not always the case. But I am so happy that those who are enlightened are outnumbering those of you who choose to remain in the dark (for fear and prejudice is darkness). And guess what? You WILL be left behind!! Peace! God Bless America and my future President, Barack Obama!!
