And now certain political groups are told they can sit in the back of the bus by an important American leader who is on the campaign trail, trying to muster up the votes it will take to keep the House and Senate in the hands of the Democrats.

Did we ever suspect we would hear such comments used in a political campaign to demean opponents by somehow linking that party with an event that happened more than 50 years ago?

Recent comments during the campaign were made about Republicans having to sit at the back of the bus. It is comments of this nature that has robbed me, and many Americans, of the joy we once had in monitoring the finer points of politics, weighing the positives and negatives of the partisan system to give each candidate an honest chance for making their case.

It is comments of this nature that demean millions of Americans and conjure up the injustices of the Rosa Parks to be used against certain political groups by somehow linking in a racist overtone to further disrespect contemporary politics.
