Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards said if he wasnt elected president, the population of African-American males is likely to either wind up in prison or dead.
At an MTV/MySpace.com forum Thursday, Edwards responded to a question about inner-city kids partaking in violence by saying there was no silver bullet to fight the problem.
We start with the president of the United States saying to America, we cannot build enough prisons to solve this problem. And the idea that we can keep incarcerating and keep incarcerating pretty soon were not going to have a young African-American male population in America. Theyre all going to be in prison or dead. One of the two.

Last nights thread about this is still active.
Yeah, well, I f I don’t get elected President the oceans will dry up and the mountains will fall. The only chance humanity has is if I’m in the White House. Get used to it.
The working, family raising American will have afford to pay as much to Paul as Paul votes for.
When we are done that then there is foreign aid to pay.
After all, trash like us owes it to the entire world.
I seem to recall that Edwards made millions as a lawyer ruining baby doctors with junk science, not defending poor young black males in court. So WTF is this shyster talkin’ about now?
I strongly suggest purchasing stock in those companies that produce crappy subs for cars. From my observations, the illegals have over taken the young blacks in their use.
I just got back from a week in the liberal hell hole known as Chapel Hill. I got tire of seeing Edwars stickers. Now this.
There is a reason Sen. Helms said we should put a fence around Chapel Hill and call it the North Carolina Zoo.
Don’t all democrats look the same? :)
The MSM is waiting to take their cue from Hillary. If she pounces on this then so will they.
From personal experience, I don’t think all black males will be in prison or end up dead.
Most will.
An important part of this story is showing those kids clap and cheer like good little sheep to anything they hear. People in that age group who see that clip/soundbyte over and over may actually realize they are being used and be more aware of it in the future.
Personally I hope this story doesn’t knock Edwards out of the running. I’d rather have him as the Dem nominee than Hillary. I think he’d be easier to beat. And, of course, this clip could be run endlessly in GOP commercials before the general election!
I searched for some of the backlash that happened when Bill Bennett made that comment about abortion reducing the crime rate. (It’s on the other thread.)
He was misunderstood, deliberately I suspect, by numerous inflamed libs. Congressman John Conyers said he gratuitously injected racial stereotyping.
Exactly what Edwards did, so he should...resign! Oh wait. He’s just running for president. In that case he should drop out, and leave all his supporters to Obama! :D
Sauce for the goose = sauce for the gander.
The black communitys biggest problem is not having a family unit to raise their babies with.
Lwss then half of blacks with children have a mother and a father.
Democraps ARE the reason that the blacks are in prison or dead. Yet like the moron voting block they are, they keep voting for them over and over again!
