No white presidential candidate had to live down the disgraced presidency of Carter.

I disagree, every candidate sense then has hoped they wouldn’t be the epic failure Carter was and distanced themselves from everything that idiot did.

When did black America, and America in general, start to celebrate the ghetto culture? Ghetto attitudes have penetrated middle class kids of all races and backgrounds nowadays.

Black America did not always celebrate ghetto and gang culture. There have always been gangs and criminal hustlers but such behavior was discouraged.

I would not have a problem voting for a conservative black candidate

WEW is a GREAT guest host for Rush - so my post flowed from that observation.

Early indications suggest that the Barack Obama presidency might turn out to be similar to the failed presidency of Jimmy Carter.

Most voters alive today did not live through Jimmy Carter's failure, which is the only reason the smiling socialist salesman Barack Obama won. Barack's unfolding failure is bad news for hard leftists, not black Americans, of which a half-white half-Kenyan is not. In a generation people will have forgotten about Obama and the hard left will get another chance to destroy America.

I usually agree with Williams, but this time I think he’s wrong.

I think Williams is right on the money. I've been thinking the same thing for quite a while. There won't be another black president for another fifty years. And when the next one is elected they will be a Republican that has a better agenda than just getting more handouts for his homies.

I agree.. The only intelligent fill ins are Mark Styen and Walter Williams..I can’t stand Davis or Belling for that matter.
How about Ol ElRushie finding a good female fill in and not Laura Ingraham..can’t stand her voice for more than a short time. How about Michelle Malkin?

I agree, but it still has nothing to do with the article

“One of the prettiest sounds on earth” is the Muslim call to prayer at sunset.
Barack Hussein Obama as quoted”

...”one of the prettiest sounds on earth” is a judge sentencing Obama to 20 years for a laundry list of crimes against America. albie as quoted.

I would love to see Rush have Ken Hamblin (The Black Avenger)fill in sometime.

Why bother? WEW is just another globalist/toady who could care less about anyone or anything - just to keep his soft gig.

“Black America” had better wake up and understand something: you NEED a prosperous white community.
That will sound insensitive to Lefties, but anyone with a basic understanding of economics will know it to be true...

Good idea re: a woman guest host. IIRC, Sean had “Rose” from his Pittsburgh affiliate fill him during the Christmas holidays last year and she did a great job!

Obama's electoral success was truly remarkable. It's a testament to the essential goodness of the American people.

Much as I admire Dr. Williams writing, I'd disagree here.

Baraq's election was more a testament to the MSM/SCM failing to report what he was really all about.

That’s why the first black president should have been a hardcore constitutional conservative.

Herman Cain is “prayerfully considering” running...

I have told hundreds of folks so far this, and the response so far has been overwhelmingly positive. And the few (around these parts) that haven’t heard of him, once they check him out, his beliefs, stance on issues, read his writings and hear his speeches, they are sold very quickly.

And this is true (in GA, in one of the most conservative counties in the country) People are smart enough to separate “black” from “liberal”.

Not only that, but there seems to be a growing population of black conservatives down here, I attribute a lot of that to folks like Herman Cain. He is as conservative and powerful a speaker as Rush, and he’s a man of faith and good character.

A solidly conservative candidate, with deep experience and intellect, gets my vote—no matter what they look like.
