Obama, Holder, and most of the black and liberal white leaders seem to want a "national conversation on race". What is meant by a "national conversation on race"?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that nearly three-fourths of all black babies are born to unmarried black women?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that, much because of the above, an enormously disproportionate amount of welfare payments goes to blacks?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that blacks seriously and materially trail whites and other minorities in educational achievement and employable skills?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that a enormously disproportionate number of blacks commit crimes and populate our prisons?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that most black homes are without a male in the household?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that the unemployment rate among blacks, particularly young blacks, is grossly disproportionate from the rest of the population?

Would such a conversation honestly address the fact that most crimes committed against blacks, certainly including murder, are committed by other blacks?

Or, instead, would such a conversation merely be used to blame whites for all the problems of the blacks?

I think the answer is obvious. So why waste the effort?
