It should be no surprise that Detroit's Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick would eventually step down because of the ongoing scandal. When does the African-American community get tired of these politicians letting them down...it is rhetorical. It seems that sex and money are the two items that bring down administrations. Unfortunately, many African-Amercian politicians cannot rebound
as well as their counterparts. Well, that is just too bad. Are African-Amercian politicans held to a higher standard...yes. However, they know that going in. If they could not control the power that was given to them by their constituents then they should not have sought office. In addition, given the circumstances surrounding the allegations against him, was she really worth it? As for Mayor Kilpatrick, I guess the luck of the Irish does not apply.
