“black fathers who aren’t in the home are much more likely to sustain regular contact with their children than absentee white fathers, or for that matter, fathers of any other ethnic group”

Well, sure. You know why? Because only the worst, most worthless 10 or 20% of white dads are absentee dads. Where 60% of black fathers don’t live with their kids; that’s the norm. So within that norm are a lot of fairly decent guys who, with a little more pressure for responsibility, wouldn’t be absentee in the first place. They only skip out because the norms in the black community practically make it inevitable.

But go ahead and beat Obama back into line. It just makes President McCain more likely, to see him kowtowing to the liberal pressure groups time and time again.
