I didn't say I succeeded in a whites man world and thus want a pat on the back. You said that. I said I was blessed by the situation I was in and did what I was suppose to do. Do you comprehend that? I wrote it like 4 times. My father told me that no one in America has an excuse for not making it.

We are in the greatest country in the world and to say that someone didn't make it even if they where given all the necessary tools is ok, is not okay. Given the tools we all should succeed this isn't liberal, this is conservative to the bone.

If I came home from school with the argument you set forth that man o man I just didn't make it even though I was born and raised in a nice home in a good family and community I would be half killed by my father. You should expect excellence not just passing along. What you said is classic liberalism.

This world is dog eat dog. Deal with it.

LOL! I think my parents philosophy was that we didn't have to go to college, the other choice was death.
