... Obama said on Friday that America's history of racial discrimination had contributed to a persistent economic gap between blacks and whites in the 50 years since Martin Luther King's landmark "I have a dream" speech.

Where’s your wallet ?
But...did you know that the text of the speech, on the paper that King held in his hand as he delivered that speech, did not contain the words, "I have a dream."?
He ad-libbed all of that.
I’m so proud that our President is a race baiter. /sarc
Collapse the system. Destroy the republican party which has held us in slavery. Let us leave their plantation. Then we can truly rebuild a free nation(s).
I bet MLK didn’t need a teleprompter either. And though there is evidence MLK plagiarized, I presume he wrote most of his speeches.
Also, what will go unmentioned this weekend is that MLK was a REPUBLICAN.
I'll bet that this story will make Bill Ayers laugh so hard he'll wet his pants.
Thomas Sowell, I believe, has pointed out that the black family was INTACT before the proliferation of the welfare state.
The argument can be made that wealth transfer CREATED the terrible statistics you cite.
The greatest nation in the world is now led by a wimpering, racist, homosexual, dope smoking, Nancy Boy who can't even get his own pet dog to recognize him as the leader.
How far we have fallen in such a short time.
Finally, a leader in the White House - its name is “Bo”!
Bozo must believe that for entertainment whites must beat the sh&t out of blacks to force them to drop out of school and to seek self employment as thugs.
Sadly, the same resume—which is what they are trying to test in those ‘call back’ studies—tends to mean significantly more for a white person than a black person, who has likely benefitted in a massive way from affirmative-action in school acceptance and degree completion, as well, often, as in hiring and job retention.
There’s only one alpha dog in that photo.
So much for the content of character and not color of skin idea. It’s been quite the opposite for Obama’s entire life and career.
I wonder where Reuters got that stat about an 85% black high school graduation rate:

you are getting boring
250-300 YEARS of black-on-white crime has fueled any discrimination that exists.
Whitey just don’ wanta be robbed and Try-vonned no more, bro.
Give me a frickin' break.
Nationwide, only 69 percent of students earn their high school diplomas. Among minority students, only 56 percent of Hispanic, 54 percent of African American, and 51 percent of American Indian and Alaska Native students in the U.S. graduate with a regular diploma, compared to 77 percent of white students and 81 percent of Asian Americans.
There are tens of thousands of Black Americans who put a lie to his speech.
The problem is discriminating against lazy, shiftless if you will, druggies that made a decision not to be educated and become a contributing member of society.
The first layer of discrimination, of the profile, is listening to the speech. Eubonics means probably unfit as a reliable competent employee
