With a new OJ trial about to start, Stephen A. Crockett Jr, a writer for the Root (http://www.theroot.com/id/48061), an online magazine offering black perspectives on politics and culture, asked "can't we please just pawn O.J. off to some other race?" I'm not sure any other race would have him. I guess it depends on what we (if I can speak for the Caucasian race) could offer/unload in return. And what would be deemed equal value (or lack thereof). I mean, I'm perfectly willing to package Roger Clemens, Dick Cheney and a pedophile to be named later. Ok, oka€¦Cheney is asking a lot, unless you're bundling OJ with someone like Bonds or R. Kelly. But let's not get too complicated; let's take Cheney off the table and replace him with Phil Gramm or some white guy we can pin the current financial meltdown on. I'd take that deal in a heartbeat. Though I'm open to ideas. Got any?
