Not surprisingly, the Wall Street Journal periodically publishes some controversial stuff. By "controversial" I mean stuff that people not interested in the truth might find offensive.
Shelby Steele has a short essay in last Monday's op-ed pages. His last book opined that Senator Obama could not win the Presidency so his track record is a little sullied for some but in my view Steele's problem with predicting elections just makes him a little more credible. In other words politics for him is more than just winning elections.
I must read some other stuff he has written as he seemed to touch on matters in the essay that have been puzzling me for a long time, ever since I took a long sabbatical during the 60s to learn how to be a doctor.
