After seeing commercials about Prop 68 and Prop 70, I decided to see what those propositions would really do to California. What I immediately noticed is that the propositions were opposed by the League of Women Voters. I'm happy that there are groups out there trying to persuade more women to vote, but to speak for them, it's as though they're implying that women lack the ability to speak for themselves individually. Same with the NAACP acting as the representatives of all black people. What I see is, "Women/Blacks can all be stereotyped as being against/for [insert issue here]." Sure, there's groups out there that try to speak for white males such as the Ku Klux Klan, but does anybody except the fringe actually take them seriously? Hell no!

Maybe the NAACP and League of Women Voters should stop trying to tell women and blacks how to think unless they're trying to tell the nation that women and blacks are too stupid to make up their own minds. Like white men, minorities and women all have different political beliefs, and to insist that they should think as a collective and not as individuals only perpetuates stereotypes that they're all the same and that they're all too stupid to make up their own minds.
