Okay let me explain to you what I see on a day to day basis:
I hear young black men complaining about racism. I hear them complain about how terrible their life is and why the white man is holding them down. At the same time I see most of them driving around in BMW’s or Lincoln. I also hear them complain about not having any money, but they wont “lower themselves” to work at a McDonalds, but would rather collect welfare. I hear them say things like, “I deserve to go on unemployment because I spent 4 years in the military.”? That is amazing to me. I always thought you worked hard for what you want.
Because young white men are lining up for jobs at Mc Donald’s? There is so much wrong with what you just wrote that I just don’t have time.

Actually quite a few young white males work at McDonald as well as many young Hispanics and other races. You’ve posted over 20,000+ times, but you don’t have the time. My guess is you just don’t have anything constructive to say this time.
You still haven’t answered the affirmative action question by the way.
You missed the entire point of the post. I was showing that other races have suffered MORE then black. [/quote]
Oh, no, we got that. The fact that they are nearly extinct is something we should aspire towards? They make up less than 2% of this country now, I believe.

Yes, white young men by the thousands are just eating up those manual labor jobs, huh? Gardening, mowing lawns…the black man is missing out, huh?
It’s not that the point wasn’t there, it was that you continue to miss it. The “research” you provided should show you something…think about it a bit. [/quote]

Blacks have been in the House of Hepresentatives since the 1800’s…yet 20 year olds still complain about their opportunities to succeed. What do I need to think about?

If the country has “fundamentally changed” does that mean we stop affirmative action now?
With the level of pure hate and exaggeration coming from the other side of the fence? You have people on this board calling him a communist and a “hidden muslim” as if we just elected Bin Ladin. Clearly, you aren’t seeing love and unity, are you?
I didn’t hear an answer. I think the minority of people are against Obama because of race or religious affiliation. I am not talking about Obama I mean regular citizens. A black man has become president and every other high office has been held by a black man. So do we still offer the black community a hand out when it is clearly not needed? The country has fundamentally changed remember?[/quote]
There you go with that damnned logic again! Don’t you know that being logical makes you a white racist, according to how words are being redefined here?

Nope and I don’t care one ounce about Ayers either.
Just so we’re clear you don’t marxism being in the highest office of this land? You have said you love this country. What does that mean? I’m not in any way being sarcastic. I’m asking honestly.
I’m sorry, but who is labeling him a Marxist?
The level of disrespect in your question of love for my country just made me lose all respect for you personally. I would hope anyone who even fixes their mouth to take that stance has also served in the military for this country at some point. I took an oath. Have you?[/quote]
I did not question your love for this country. I asked you what that meant to you.
Obama has met a criteria for seeing the world through a marxist lens that far exceeds what you would demand to demonstrate racism from somebody else.
What if he gave a news conference this afternoon announcing in plain language that he is a marxist and intends to move the country in that direction for our own good? What if if he did that? Would he be an enemy then? Is it that you don’t believe that he actually subscribes to that world view or that even if he does you don’t care?
I’m asking honest questions in a calm tone and you use that as means to dump ALL respect for me personally? Whatever it exactly means on an internet forum, we’ve been friends here. What if Obama were white and that was the only difference? Another honest question. Would you still feel my criticisms of him, which have been exactly the same for many white politicians BTW, warranted your loss of respect.
I base what I think on what I see based on history, no more, no less. I’m sorry you feel this way.

Around 50% of black people never graduate from high school. 80% of black kids are born out of wedlock. Yet unemployment and poverty are endemic in the black community.
And the white man is responsible for this?
Sorry, black folks, but the fact that your ancestors were slaves doesn’t get you a million dollars and a new Caddy. You have to get an education, you have to dress nicely, you have to speak modern American English (not ghetto dialects) or YOU WILL BE POOR! Or a crack dealer.
I guess demanding that someone makes something of themselves makes me a racist. Yeah…

This is a great point. In the context of 1985 this thesis is very reasonable. And her fears of being held back because of skin color were very real at that time. However, in light of where she is today, if she wrote a thesis now it would be much different as many of her issues have improved significantly.
So what does this say about her? That she was aware of what was going on at that time and spoke up about it.
So the reality is that it is because of her and others like her that a black person could and did become president.

I think I would credit Barrack Obama with working hard to become the president before his wife and what exactly has she done for the country and did anyone besides her professors read her thesis before the election?
I agree a college thesis is not exactly rocket science.

I did a lot of extremely hard manual labor growing up. It made sure I got through college.
Slavery allowed the blacks of today to enjoy a relatively high standard of living,affirmative action,white leftist self-guilt,welfare etc.
Back when slavery was for real,life was hard for everyone regardless.
Look at Africa today; how many blacks in white majority countries want to get back there? It is a continent of misery,and was during the time of slavery. Back when South Africa was ruled by the hated apartheid,it was the best country to live in Africa.
After white rule,it degenerated. The discrimination that blacks faced during the time of segregation was not just,but I’m not sure if it was worse than living in the ancestral black dominated region(s).
There,I think I just destroyed american liberal thought in a few sentences that are obvious but rarely uttered out of fear. If anybody can pin the above problems on whites somehow,I’m impressed.

Another point is that her paper implies that educated blacks were not going back and supporting the black community like they should be. Well, now she is probably in the 2nd (or first, depending on how you look at it) most powerful position in the world. So we will see just how much she goes back and supports the black community.

For the people who continue to insist that raising the capital gains tax 5% is Marxist (which is double-hilarious, since it implies that you can differentiate between the two and have some idea of what you’re talking about) please read a book. It’s very obvious you have no idea what you’re saying.
