Gingis is obviously not a female, and clearly not black either.

I'm a 57 year old white guy of German/French/Candian/Irish decent. I'm a software engineer, with advanced electronics capabilities. I've been all but discarded in my prime by "globalization". Sinkspur wails about the hard-working men and women in the 50s and 60s, but cheers the process that puts guys like me out of work. So much for balance.

I don't believe that someone should be black or female or even brown to get ahead. It should always be based on merit. The field should be level. It should be an American playing field. Let the rest of the world build their own industry and technology. We are giving away our birthright. We are giving away what our people have paid for with blood.

So, if you feel like you've been 'discarded' why don't you pull yourself up by your bootstraps and do something else with your life?

I'm the same age as you are, and I don't happen to believe that a person as young as you are should be giving up and blaming the President for his own problems.

Take responsibility for yourself, and quit playing the victim role like a liberal.

Sorry if that sounds rough, but I don't believe conservatives should sit around and feel sorry for themselves when there's a world of opportunity out there for every American...........even middle aged white guys like you.
