If every person in America who had ever used an racial slur no matter how long ago were to support her she would be more popular than chocolate. She grew up in the south in the 60s when the word was in common usage. It is nothing more than small minded bigotry that they want to judge her based on where she is from instead of who she is now. If she was a loud mouthed movie star throwing phones at people they would be more forgiving.
We can forgive celebrities for all sort of heinous behavior, VISA has spokesman who was recorded leaving his own daughter a hate filled and insulting message but they want to tar and feather her for admitting to something I would guess 98% of the country over the age 12 is guilty of. Feaking PC police.
