For the record, if nominated DonDiego will not run, if elected he will not serve.

Oh, . . . can hoops2 clarify, . . . exactly what is the most important position in the world? DonDiego is absolutely certain of which position in his two-person household is most important, . . . but beyond that he cannot say.

I'm thinking he means POTUS.
Let me explain the difference between prejudice and preference for you all so that you can understand that they are not one and the same .

Prejudice is rooted in hate, Misunderstanding and fear , and is most often directed At people and groups
Preference is more likely a matter of taste about something involving a choice .
When I walk up to a bar in Las Vegas , I prefer Bombay Gin, but will settle for Tanqueray . Just because I prefer Bombay , doesn't mean I hate Tanqueray . I just like one a bit more than the other .

So Forkguy , your comment " So is that what there calling it now " just reinforces what I already knew about your lack of comprehension and your rush to judge based on false assumptions . Have a nice day , and try more to not be like the "bad" people you rail about . Bob

When you prefer Bombay, you can give qualitative reasons. ie It tastes better to me. When you prefer one person's skin color to another's... What is the reason for that? He looks like me? He looks honest. People with other skin color...

Aw stop beating around the bush. Why do you prefer white people?
I would prefer a black Republican President over a Democrat President of any skin color.
For the record, there are accounting firms and law firms whereby partners are investors and not practicing attorneys or accountants. They are allowed to share in the profits but are not allowed to practice law or accounting. I don't know why this wouldn't apply to plumbers, construction companies, electricians, etc.
While I fully agree with BobOrme, Liberals don't believe that Conservative blacks are black.

For the record, no one on this board has asserted otherwise. The only assertion was that "Joe the Plumber" is a loser, a poser, and a charade who told a lie to get some attention. The counter assertion was that it wasn't necessarily a lie, i.e. there may have been some shred of truth in this tiny little man's story.
Jilly, you said that Joe couldn't buy a plumbing company without a license. When I pointed out otherwise, you or Forkie called me a liar, I believe.
