Where the security of the VP is concerned, a physical description of the 
reporter is a valid question and that includes his/her race. It is NOT 
racist or sexist to require such information.

This forum is NOT the place for political discussions. I'm with Brian on 
this one: if you have a political agenda, PLEASE take it elsewhere. I 
want to read about Leicas and photography here. If I want rough & tumble 
political discussion I'll go to the "The Town Square" on the ACC boards.
