White Americans are both genetically weaker and less diverse than their black compatriots, a Cornell University-led study finds.
Researchers analyzed the genetic makeup of 20 Americans of European ancestry and 15 African-Americans.
The Europeans showed much less variation among 10,000 tested genes than did the Africans, which was expected, but also that Europeans had many more possibly harmful mutations than did African, which was not.

Original title — politically correct:
“White Genetically Weaker Than Blacks, Study Finds”
Yet if it had said:
“White Genetically stronger Than Blacks, Study Finds”
What would Obama and his pal Sharpton have said then?

The clue that this is not science is the word “weaker”. No scientist would attach a value like weak or strong to something as complex and imperfectly understood as a genome.

less diverse than their black compatriotsProbably true and that explains why Blacks kill a lot of other Blacks in Africa... So many different warring tribes pushed together in each country...

How conveinient, liberal media crap! just in time to convince us that we are all right to vote for a black man for president because he’s stronger of coarse. Idiotic journalism at it’s best!

Re:
White Genetically Weaker Than Blacks, Study Finds Now, you realize that someone will come along and ask, "If this is true, why is most of the world's wealth tied up in mostly White North America and Europe while Africa is still mostly run by regimes of savages?"
However... I am not that somebody!
We... are so confused!
Don't ask me... I'm half-White!

The reason this study was conducted was to get FReepers to say something which could later be used on O’Rielly as proof that this is a hate site.

Cornell says it all.
Race baiters, socialists, tyrants.
Does anything good ever come out of that place (except for Ann)?

so how come were always hearing about blacks being more susceptible to this or that condition or disease?" They're pharmaceutically superior?

"
Im half Hispanic and half Anglo Saxon. My mother always said this made us healthier." Similar here; half Italian, and half Anglo. I haven't had any significant illness since I was four years old (63 now). I can wallow around sick people and never get whatever the current plague is.
