a little love, a little hate

i'm all for discussing racism and sexism publicly, and really tackling the issues. but, at the same time, these primaries have really exposed the type of tunnel vision that mainstream media portrays as debate.

there's no room for the intersection of race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, etc, etc. it's just "look at this white woman, and look at this black man, and they're fighting it out to be president! let's ask them every single question we can think of that doesn't have any nuance!"

argh. it's time for the dems to settle this. this race is only eating up time, money, and the general public's attention span.
