    Of course I realize the topic was a joke, so I just want to say, us Jews got off easy on the stereotyping. Vote Democrat? List all our merits while you're at it.

    It could be worse. We could be known for having big noses and hoarding pennies.

    I agree but it's probably worth the effort. The unconscious brain doesn't get everything right. You might not be getting these ideas from experience but from ancient myths and prejudices.

    Every Black person knows someone who's either played in the NBA/NFL or was in jail.

    Big noses: I was once told that is because air is free! Sorry, no offence meant!
