...statement that the President has a "deep-seated hatred of white people." That statement is part of a consistent pattern of race-baiting by Beck. This summer, ColorofChange.org began asking advertisers to stop supporting Beck's TV show because our members are concerned about the way he stokes racial paranoia and fear with inflammatory rhetoric that's not based in fact. Dozens of companies listened and pulled their ads. It's clear that much of corporate America already knows the answer to the question your article poses. Indeed, Glenn Beck is bad for America.

...avoid the threat of the racial Balkanization that you describe? We have a golden opportunity now. If I were an elected leader, I would say we have $800 billion in stimulus money that could rebuild America. We don't want to build communities in such a way that continues segregation. After World War II, President Eisenhower built highways and gave incentives to homeowners that gave white suburbanites an advantage. It left us with segregation for decades to come. Now we have an opportunity to get it right...
