Howard Student To Rand Paul: "I Want A Government That Is Going To Help Me"
RCP Video ^ | 4-10-2013

Posted on 04/11/2013 7:56:33 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

Howard University student to Sen. Rand Paul: ".... You say you want to provide a government that leaves us alone. Quite frankly, I don’t want that. I want a government that is going to help me. I want a government that is going to help me fund my college education. I want a government that won’t define me by my FAFSA or by my family’s income. I’m a dollar sign with a heartbeat in this nation. This society is a mirror image of Capitol Hill. Do you, Senator Rand Paul, have a solution to come up with new American values so that the citizens of this nation have a worth of more than dead presidents and Ben Franklin?"

LIBV = vote in exchange for a free cell phone and food stamps

HIBV = vote in exchange for free college and a government job when done, which includes loan forgiveness, free cell phones, and food stamps for friends and relatives.

It is chilling (to me) to see the matter-of-factly manner of the student stating to Sen Rand Paul his sentiment.

And not even an eyebrow raised by the rest of the audience.

Paul must be thinking like you and I thinking - the country is too far gone.

The rest of the parasites are over at the Washington Post attacking Mitch McConnell for bashing Ashley Judd. Never mind the Senate Minority Leader’s office was illegally bugged. Non story there. This country is lost...... And I am not exaggerating.

Godless, feckless, worthless generation.

I have yet to be impressed with them.

There are a few in there that are worth their salt, but they are the exception, not the rule.

She left off the part about "and I want someone else to pay for it all."

Grades? We don't care about no stinking grades!

Just your color...

If she's a black racist, that's inherent in the remarks. She thinks she's "owed," as in "Whitey owes me a living."

I did not live through segregation nor did I experience it first-hand.

Guess what?

None of the Howard University graduates to whom he was speaking ... NONE ... ZERO ... lived through segregation either, nor did any of them experience it first hand.

Rand Paul correctly sees it as a bad piece of history ... the racist idiots pretend it is still a reality.

Racist idiots are their own worst enemies.

Also can someone who speaks Ebonic translate this for me, please?

“...I’m a dollar sign with a heartbeat in this nation. This society is a mirror image of Capitol Hill. “

Introduce it in the context of Obama who has been largely silent on the issue of black unemployment, and has even proposed cutting Social Security—a key tool the kids probably believe for combating poverty. How can that be labeled racist ? Sitting down to talk about how to get our arms around our debt is a good first step, and then Paul, or any candidate, has to keep going and going and going...

Another pansified moocher.

Yes, indeed.

We're used to hearing the "gimme, gimme, gimme" speech from seniors, but it's very disappointing to hear this kind of talk from someone in college.

Exactly why I said that legalizing drugs won’t fix the problem.

And THAT marks Howard University as one that should be written off.

It’s obvious that the education there is almost as bad as that of Harvard.

Not quite - but almost.
