					<description><![CDATA[Yes....if you have too many of one type of people in a district that&#039;s wrong - they get their token representative.  Too few, that&#039;s wrong - they don&#039;t get meaningful input in selecting the representative.

But this test is only for certain people.

See, people aren&#039;t individuals, with unique hopes, dreams, skills, strengths, weaknesses.  None of that matters.  All that matters is how many boxes can be checked - what&#039;s their skin color, do they prefer to sleep with the &quot;right&quot; kine of people, do they pray the right way, etc.

The only people that focus so hard on race, religion, who is sleeping with who and the rest, those who think the worth of an individual is based on those features, are the KKK types and the hard left.  In that, the hard left and KKK types are indistinguishable to me.  The outcome of that kind of thinking (judging the value of people on skin color, etc instead of their individual behavior &#038; skills) is places like Manzanar and Auschwitz, differing only in magnitude of the brutality involved, but born of the same idea.]]></description>
