Politically, you're going to see many more black elected city officials. Baltimore could have a black mayor. So could Detroit, Newark, Los Angeles and Kansas City. We're coming into politics the same way the Irish did. The Irish used politics to lift themselves up as a group, controlling New York at one time, Boston at another.

I pulled my ass up from New Jersey. That's right. New Jersey. Not Newark either so don't get any smart ideas." Then follow jokes about Montclair, paranoia, penis-envy. On one hand, it must be cunning to hear rats talk this way in an over-sized nursery. On the other, the lines exploit the old convention of laughing at the words "elephant," "banana," "belly...
