Now to the caucus issue.
Caucus-a group of members in the House of Reps that share some commonality either personal(Hispanic caucus)district(Rural caucus) or substantial interest(congressional progressive caucus) Michelle Bachman just started the Tea Party caucus. There are over 100 different caucuses in the House. You may not like the idea of the caucus but to single out and question why the black reps need a caucus seems unfair and rather shortsighted on your part.

you surely are entitled to your opinion.
The black caucus was the subject because the subject of the thread was an article and comments on the black community and their feelings on the President and voting in 2012.
I am sorry for speaking to the thread...wont let it happen again.
