It shows a real lack of understanding the American concept to key in on that and play victim.
Yet these same socialists don’t hesitate to put forward Jefferson’s “separation of church and state” quote despite the fact Jefferson had nothing to do with drafting or debating the bill of rights.
She probably thinks the American Colonies of 1776 were comprised of nothing but slaves and wealthy white men.
Obama is worth $17 million more than Paul Ryan.
Don’t you work with a lot of wealthy white men at MSNBC, honey?
Miss Harris-Perry lives in a country where a number of Black Americans (Oprah Winfrey, Tiger Woods) have managed to accumulate a billion dollars. Hundreds more Black Americans have become superrich with fortunes over 100 million. They would not have done this in a third-world country or any other country in the world.
Also, is Melissa saying/implying she doesn't believe that our rights come from God? Does she believe they only come from government? Don't Marxists and Communists think that way?
Another example of the pervasive influence of the thinking of Derrick Bell racism on the psyche of much of the black intelligentsia of this country. Mostly it is stupidity, but it is dangerous because the communists have used it so well....

Does she think it’s ugly for a poor Black man to believe he has God-given rights?
I guess her head would explode if she were to learn that initially the inalienable right to "pursuit of happiness" was to be specified as "property".

If he quoted Booker T. Washington they’d accuse him of acting patronizing.
Born with Big Gub'mint's teat clamped firmly in her mouth.
Still sucking.
Libtards think it is permissible to violate the right to the pursuit of happiness of the rich in order to promote the pursuit of happiness of ordinary people and the poor.
Racist whore.
Another mixed-race leftist trying to be “authentic”.(She wears corn rows) She spouts hatred for Whitey all the time. It may be a personal thing with her, maybe her white Daddy split.
At any rate, hatred for the founding fathers and America in general is SOP at MSNBC.
If Jefferson was so awful, why do Democrats have am annual Jefferson Day dinner event?
Another pseudo-intellectual, cornrowed, hyphenated (OH, double hyphenated! Name and ethnicity! Bonus points) VICTIM.
If she was smart, instead of yet another hyphenated-American “victim”, she would have known that in the vernacular of the day, “pursuit” referred to a vocation, a job in other words.
Most people misuse the phrase these days and don’t seem to remember that the reason for the emphasis on ‘pursuit of happiness’ was because until that time, if you were born to a blacksmith, you were going to become a blacksmith, and if you were born a land-owners son, you would someday be a Baron, while a blacksmith’s son would never have that chance.
Upward mobility, the opportunity to improve your position ... that was the ‘pursuit of happiness’ ... an opportunity she clearly has and takes for granted, and yet despises because at the core she is a racist bitch incapable of thinking outside her victim programming.
