If you're a black actress in Hollywood, are you allowed to endorse the white guy running for president?
Oh hell no.
That, at least, is according to the massive Twitter backlash against Stacey Dash of Clueless fame, who today backed Mitt Romney for prez:
Vote for Romney. The only choice for your future. @mittromney @teamromney #mittromney #VOTE #voteromney twitter.com/REALStaceyDash…

Fair enough except, for some, endorsing a Republican while African American is a crime punishable by suicide, especially when your sitting POTUS is black like you.

Because you should be informed about more than your candidate's skin color.#ISupportStaceyDash
