24

By: AF Editors

Against my better judgment, I tuned into the new season of 24, airing now. After watching the first episode, I came to the conclusion that the producers of the show, apparently deciding that trying to persuade us of the folly of electing a black president was a dead letter, are now trying to convince us of the same regarding a female president (perhaps, like Hillary, with an eye to 2016).

(I realize the white male president on the show was guilty of a treasonous criminal conspiracy, but he still comes off better for some reason.)
