I've never understood why do people get really upset when they get stereotyped. For sure, It's really hateful to see a Muslim getting beaten hardly just for being a Muslim, but why would he get annoyed if someone jokes with him saying that he’s a terrorist!!

I strongly believe that stereotypes is an expression of cultures, when I say black that is not an insult for his skin color, it might actually refer to a reflection of his culture and struggle! Why wouldn’t a white man get upset as much as the black guy someone mentions his color! So, nothing is wrong with his skin color?

The same thing goes with Arab. For example, when you have a lot of Iraqi friends you notice that they don’t mind interrupting you even if they are intellectuals because they can’t stand hearing something wrong (as they think)! Thus, you find that Iraqis are missing one of the main basics for communication, then why would they get upset when people tell them that you all miss this communication base!

In another place, you have the Egyptians and Lebanese for example being very deceiving because they both work on marketing their ideas (THE TRUTH) and because they are never civilized when it comes to their states, it forces the rule of ‘the survival of the fittest’!

We’ve got to understand the concept of stereotypes in a better and clearer way, away from generalization!

:/

Whatever man!

Hello again,
me & my friends talked about you. Selfishly, they do not want you in charge because you contradict yourself! They say that you voted for the war on Iraq before and now you come & say something else.
I do not know for sure if you did or not, I've also heard that you voted against gays marriage although you are described 'too liberal' as Mr. Ghost says.
They also say that you are unexperienced and that you act like celebrities not like a politician!

Well, I really do not know what to say, but once again, having someone unknown is better than having another Bush who just said 'my VP will send her kid to Iraq & will not go easy with Iran' as if he's trying to assure that there is no problem in choosing a beautiful chick as a VP!
see, I really hate Oprah, but when she talks about you, she is fun, she clearly knows how to play with words ..

I'll be here watching you with a loud voice :)
