well not so fast...Tavis Smiley, Al Sharpton and others say we still are.
Nevermind there truly IS no higher pinnacle to reach...Al Sharpton even said it’s insulting for us to be so naive to assume his work is finished!
surreal.
Wasn’t her outfit awful and running around during campaign trying to be Beaver Cleaver’s mother was a joke. Whoever did her makeover(didn’t they say she was having a makeover)is a joke.
Red with a yellow streak.
I’ve got news for Mister Sheridan. The America-bashers will only take a short respite before they find more reasons to hate America again. This is just a temporary set-back for them. Of course if Obama continues with his plan to turn the U.S. into a vassal state of socialist Europe and ban capitalism and disband the military, then they will truly love us.
Furthermore, I can’t wait to see the looks on the faces of foreigners when after congratulating me as an American for electing Obama, I tell them I didn’t vote for the commie b......
I have even heard some of those enslavers insinuate that, you know, Barack isn’t “black” enough . . .
However.
Of course Jesse and Al and Jeremiah will keep on trying to make a buck off of misery and preaching hate and telling folks they have no choice but to stay on their inner city (physical) and white-race-hating (virtual) plantations. But I still believe that at some point more and more of our fellow Americans are going to say “Do I believe Jesse or my lyin’ eyes?”
This will be especially true of the blacks who already do or are poised to take advantage of America’s constant socioeconomic mobility, but whom did not think of themselves as completely free to pursue the American Dream.
The ironic thing is that, as they *accept* the truth that they can succeed if they are willing and able, many will also come to realize that Barack Obama is part and parcel with the old racemonger-enslavers.
Yup, the reality is he has perhaps unwittingly crushed forever the argument about “the man”. He IS the man now.
And everytime Jacks-nnn, or Sharpton or anyone brings their race-baiting screed up, my hope is people will want to move forward, put an end to it once and for all and answer them:
Ummm, there IS nowhere higher, no way more further and nowhere else TO go!
I mean truly the only place left is reparations and such a thing is ridiculous and has no hope of success.
Oprah Winfrey, Tiger Woods...astronauts...and now the most powerful human being in the world, POTUS.
If anything, they need to sit down and be reminded there are other minorities and women! They had their turn, they won and no one will pay attention to them anymore.
But I think you’re right, even Harry Belafonte seemed to say it’s over. And I think it’s telling when a young football player from the broncos gets it and wanted to pull on a black and white glove proud that the collective country has finally moved as far forward as it possibly can!
