I came across this very provocative article in the WSJ. Those of us who are familiar with the arch-conservative, Shelby Steele (an African American, I believe) will not be surprised to read his comparison of Pres. Obama to the mythical naked emperor. In any case, he reaches across the divide of political correctness to write a very interesting analysis, whether or not we agree with him.
