I have a friend who commented on one of my posts on Facebook a couple of weeks ago.  One of his friends also commented on my post. I don't know her but I really liked her comment a great deal, so I added her as a friend. I thought she was someone I could talk to and learn from. 
 Today, I wrote a post critical of Barack Obama. 
 This is what she wrote me, just before she befriended me on Facebook: 
 "Why did you ask to be my Facebook friend? so you could say you have a black friend in Texas?! 
 I think you are a Jackass - please go find someone else to bother!" 
 I can't respond to her message, because she befriended me so Facebook won't give me a chance to respond. 
 I am completely distraught as result. 
 We were told that Barack Obama was going to usher in a post-racial age of unity. 
 It didn't happen. 
 There is something very, very wrong in America. Very, very wrong.... 
 How do we fix it?
