Jeff looked at Martin, "Martin, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be sleeping at Zack's house?"
"Jeff, just admit it, it's no big deal, everyone will understand you." Martin still had a sincere expression, standing on the car, speaking down persuasively to Jeff surrounded by parents.
"Jeff hired a nigger as his campaign manager?" a white parent asked skeptically. "Even if he ran for office, shouldn't it be those two fools, Zack and Allen, helping him?"
Other whites nodded in agreement, and a parent said, "My kid told me that a black man gave him this letter."
"You actually hired a black guy to help with your campaign?" The bearded parent looked at Jeff. "Are you insane? You're going to hurt Zack and Allen's feelings!"
"No, it was Martin who approached me, offering to help with my campaign. He said he could secure the black vote and such. I didn't know he would use this method. I swear to God, I really didn't know."
