She can't have a beer with the dudes because this whole incident was totally blown out of proportion by the dudes and then by the mainstream press in a cascade like fashion. The press often acts like a pack of jackals transforming one occurrence into a totally different one. This is what happened here and I applaud you for reminding us that perhaps there's a bigger teachable moment here. Racial profiling is a big deal here.

Funny, isn't it? When politicians are presented, there is no qualification of gender until they are noted as a woman. you are not ranting, you are telling it like it us, sorry that so many would see that as ranting. We have such a long way to go, why is it I feel that our ancestors, many centuries removed, maybe had it right and we screwed it up thereafter? I hear people on the news speaking about going back to the Constitution? Well, ok, I applaud the gentlemen that worked and tried to set forth rights during that vacuum in time, but hey, many ethnicities and women, regardless of ethnicity, were not seen to have equal rights. Wow, think of it, a woman was discriminated upon without regard to ethnicity and only due to gender! God forbid there was an ethnic, cultural or religious strike against her also! Polar,

As the only person of the bunch who did not commit any act of stupidity, she caught the brunt of some mean media and public remarks. From my perspective, she didn’t let it phase her. As she knew she did the sensible thing and she knows her heart. As for drinking beer with the boys, I doubt that she feels compelled about doing that either. I applaud her integrity and lack of stupidity in this whole matter! Thanks for the article, SE. If I had a hero of the month, it would be her. Might just start one up! She’d be a super first feature! As for the commenter who feels race relations are not important enough for such attention, I must disagree. I think we need to stop putting our heads in the sand regarding a lot of problems in America, including race relations. Peace, Light and Love...C.

There are lots of other things that he should be taking care of. Yes, race relations are important but come on we are in a mess here in this country with our economy, our schools and our infrastructure. I am happy he enjoyed his beer with the boys but look at what happened to Ms Whalen because of this. She was just being a good neighbor nothing else and she was crucified because of it. It is just not right. Love and Blessings, AngelBaby It is amazing to me that the president of this country got involved in this, why? There are lots of other things that he should be taking care of.

One day in particular stands out...one of CNN's talking heads shouted "...and it's clear the woman never mention the men were black and she [meaning the caller] isn't even white, she is Portuguese!" I should tell my father that CNN does not consider him or his children white (we are Portuguese). Racial profiling is pervasive in society.

Remember the Main Stream Media portrayed Geraldine Ferraro, Hillary Clinton, & Sarah Palin NOT as politicians with ideas (like their male counterparts) but as women with an axe to grind. You could say Quayle, Gore, & Dukakis to people and all they would do is chortle. Yet speak any of the ladies names above and Tar will be boiled & Feathers gathered. Hence they never had a chance. Lets face it. This country would rather have a string of loser male Presidents than just One competent woman President. 1).-The Media will burn down ANY woman that tries to leave the kitchen. 2).-Americans believe everything they see on T.V.

For mostly reasons stated here in. I never understand things, never see them the way they are "suppose " to be seen, or the way society see's them. It's the same at school, you know, kids are taught that the person that tells on the person doing something wrong is that "bad" one. sigh I suppose I should pay more attention to the news, but I don’t and I wont.
