“This past Saturday evening, Angela and I had the pleasure of attending a traditional Jewish wedding for one of my close friends. It was a real fantastic evening, and the venue at the Ritz-Carlton in Dallas was exceptional. Heck, even a non-cultured fella like me from Georgia could appreciate the setting. Being a dad to two daughters myself, I know that my friend wanted to make this a memorable evening for his daughter, and it was.
We were having a great time. The meal was awesome – a tad too much pepper on the peppercorn steak, but that is why they make water. The dinner band was great, playing those old ’80s-style love songs and such. And then we got to the evening’s festivities and entertainment. All was going well, and then, well, it happened. There were only two black fellas at this soiree – of course, I was one of them. The other gentleman made his way over to me and engaged in a conversation, an interesting one at that. However, it is a conversation that occurs often, but a good topic to share with y’all. Yes, it immediately went to the political, since this fella knew who I was, and then it came. Yes, that question: why are you a conservative Republican?”
