Why isn't Santa "Black!"

Dear friends:

What a silly question ....., and I keep hearing it from different sources.

Folks this is just another example of Political Correctness run amok, and I wish they would stop it!

We all know that people in northern climates gradually turn whiter and whiter as you go north, until they are actually red-haired and pale, while going south you see darker and darker skinned people.

Now think about where Santa is from?

That's right: THE NORTH POLE! (Ya can't get further north than that folks!)

The natural question should be: "WHY DOESN'T SANTA CLAUS HAVE RED HAIR AND FRECKLES?"
