Have you read this--> All's Fair: Love, War and Running for President? I hope to read it this winter.

Nope, haven't read it.

I believe many family and G-rated shows on television have actors with minimal accents (not New Jersey Housewives and The Sopranos, of course).

Most TV shows, especially the news, use the neutral Midwestern dialect because it has no accent. The reason is because even someone with a thick Boston accent or Southern accent can understand it, but it's a lot harder vice versa. In short, it's universally understandable. People speak different dialects because that is what they grow up around. Watching TV isn't going to give them a neutral Midwestern accent when everyone around them is speaking in a dialect just like watching a Spanish TV show isn't going to make you speak Spanish.

Racist bigots must hate white people. Well according to Fov's logic. I mean they're passing around a video of an ignorant white person! That misrepresents all white people as being presumptuous and uneducated. THAT'S RACIST!

Now you're being ignorant. You can't even grasp the basic logic I've laid out in this thread, even when other people try and explain it to you, too. Explain to me how conservatives using a video portraying a black person wanting free stuff from a black President, including starting a thread with a title like this one, is the same as asking an idiot Republican to simply explain what a communist is? This video makes teabaggers look uneducated, not all white people.
