Such a shame. It was a nice place to live. I agree with what others say about the city, the response to Katrina absolutely ruined the character of the city, and it didn't help with Mayor Nagin calling New Orleans a "chocolate city", showing exactly what his priorities were.

Looking at the previous mayors of New Orleans, I was surprised to learn that some of them were consider black because of the "one drop" rule. They certainly believed that to be the case.

Maurice Landrieu was the last White mayor until his Mitch became mayor more than 35 years later. Both Morials and Barthelemy were light skinned blacks. I think Mitch Landrieu was elected due to Nagin's botched response to the hurricane, and even the niggers living there knew they needed a White man to fix the damage Nagin caused.
