What an eye opener! After listening to his spellbinding speech – and more important, hearing the content of his message – I suddenly loved America and its people. I loved the message of personal responsibility Reagan preached and realized how sadly lacking it was in the black community, where people of my pigmentary persuasion always felt that “the system” owed them something.

I walked away convinced that the system owed me nothing; to the contrary, I owed my country the best that I could give it.

I'm guessing that Bill Clinton never had this type affect on anybody.

God Bless President Reagan

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Terrific story!

That's one I haven't heard, I'll be stealing that one!

Democrats – the party that now has less pro-American sentiment than exists in the city of Baghdad!

Sad but true.

I walked away convinced that the system owed me nothing; to the contrary, I owed my country the best that I could give it.

Worth repeating. It warms my heart to know that every day more and more black Americans get it.

If black America honestly looks at what has happened to them from the time of LBJ onward, they can only conclude that they are getting the shaft. The problem is the 'rats convince them that one more entitlement program will enable them to "turn the corner" if they can just hang in there a little longer. Its really sad when you think about the turmoil the left creates just to ensure a voting block.

"On September 11, 2001, America played a home game and lost. Our current president placed his entire presidency on the line by deciding that if we were going to play this game, we would make it an "away game" and take it to the hometowns of the opposition. Because of this decision, we are winning. "

Bears repeating.
