Saw this editorial mentioned on Fox News just minutes ago.

His heart and soul are, doesn;t that count?

According to Clinton, "Public housing is a privilege."

Gotta go with slick willy on this one, since I can't find a "right" for it in the Constitution.

...under Clinton, the U.S. prison population swelled to nearly 2 million - with blacks being the main victims.

I think the author is confused, "victims" are the ones the crimes are committed against. "Perpetrators" are the ones who commit the crimes and are generally the same ones who go to jail.

The 1994 crime bill contributed to the massive incarceration boom. According to the Department of Justice, under Clinton, the U.S. prison population swelled to nearly 2 million - with blacks being the main victims.

Evidently, the author has a problem with the definition of "victims."

Sounds like they’re ‘clearing the deck’ to get folks to vote for ‘the first Black president’.

[Mark]

Those people who publicly state that Bill Clinton was the first black president are saying that Bill Clinton has shared in the black experience.

Just a question. Is OJ black? Is Obama black?

[Alouette]

They are saying that members of Bill Clinton's family came over on slave ships with Kunta Kinte.

Well, considering that Kunta Kinte never existed...

You caught it before I did - good catch!

The phoniness of both Clintons will be ignored, covered up and lied about until Hillary! is elected. Then the issue will just go away. Never you mind you minorities. Hillary! knows best for you and all her other minions.

It was weird reading something that actually made me want to defend Bill Clinton. Oh....down the rabbit hole!

I get the impression that she wants black folk not to go to jail even if they commit crimes. Maybe she just thinks they don’t actually commit crimes, we just throw them in jail because they are black. I bet most of my black friends don’t believe that, but I’ll have to ask them.

I don't know about this article. It doesn't feel like a hit piece on Clinton. It feels more like a hit piece on the white man and why he is always putting down the minorities around the world.

Because I agree with Clinton (don't hold that against me) on kicking out the lowlifes out of public housing. And I'm not sure we are responsible for the Rwandan crisis. Where were the Europeans? What about the other African countries? What about the United Nations? Why exactly does the United States have to bail out other countries when it is apparent that most of these countries resent our help?

[diverteach]

Sure about that?

Louis Farrakhan was asked in an interview about this “first black president” label of Clinton. Farrakhan said Clinton had done less for blacks than most presidents but blacks sympathized with Clinton when he got into legal problems and faced impeachment.
