There is Nobody in America...I couldn't agree more. There is Nobody in America that was someone's slave and there is nobody in America that owned slaves. Primarily we are looked at in the world as potentially having the ability to obtain the same. That being said, Extremists such as organizations that only like whites and groups led by the REV. of course are simply keeping a rift and basically inciting hatred among ourselves! Why do we have a United Negro College Fund? Why isn't it a United States College Fund for anyone who qualifies? Why do we have a Miss. Black America? Where is the Miss. Native American if you want to talk about a group being "put down"? They are still struggling today on reservations!<BR/>We need to GET OVER IT!!! We are one nation under GOD - Not many nations under whomever you want to call on! If you don't like it, then go somewhere that agrees with your beliefs and value system and stop trying to pervert and change mine. I happen to think great men took great time and care to create our nation! I'm tired of people changing their meanings and intentions to suit their desires and ruining the country for those of us who are proud to be here whether white, black, red, yellow, etc... We are all Americans regardless of color start acting like one!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30941191.post-41221251476677787342008-09-14T12:15:00.000-05:002008-09-14T12:15:00.000-05:00Well, I kind of agree, but have to say that the Re...Well, I kind of agree, but have to say that the Rev. is very passionate about his ideas because he has seen some of the most wicked unjust things in his lifetime. The fact that "Blacks" have not had the same start, or head start, most poor neighborhoods have high black populations, lousy schools, these are all things that create a social class difference. I also think the same to be said for women, who are the most over worked, yet in debt people in society. The fact there wasn't a right to vote 80 years ago plays a major roll in this social class difference. There may not be a glass ceiling anymore, but there is a boys club, and very few women are allowed to penetrate it without major consequences. Furthermore, it is fact, not fiction that women make 60% of a man's income, in the same career. Men are looked upon higher in our society because they have had a 200 year head start to create business, and government that favors them. <BR/><BR/>Come live in a women shoes or a poor black persons shoes, and maybe you will understand.Parents for Reformhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892091914973157047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30941191.post-73342561006189083192008-08-29T12:56:00.000-05:002008-08-29T12:56:00.000-05:00I absolutely agree that Bill Cosby would make a gr...I absolutely agree that Bill Cosby would make a great president. He is educated, well spoken, not to mention a great sense of humor but also cares about the world and all its people not because of race, creed or color but because they are human!Jeannie50https://www.blogger.com/profile/16114903357225922290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30941191.post-37664226748833125972008-05-03T18:07:00.000-05:002008-05-03T18:07:00.000-05:00Ditto that last paragraph!Ditto that last paragraph!Lerrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654410271870820434noreply@blogger.com
