I picture Hillary practicing a little humility herself. An orange jail jumpsuit and shackles come to mind.
Orange is too loud.
I was going to say no more here, until I glanced out of my window. Here at the Ontario/Michigan border after six weeks of nice weather, just got nailed. Brutal -lots of snow and high winds.
One can notch up the thermostat, brew up a hot coffee. Thanks to Thomas Edison and others. Electricity on tap and I am sure here it is most whiteys that operated the system.
Excuse my rant.
“White Americans need to do a better job of listening when African Americans talk about the seen and unseen barriers that you face every day,” Clinton said. “We need to recognize our privilege and practice humility, rather than assume that our experiences are everyone’s experiences.”
Hmm, No. I am sick to death of AAs whining about imaginary barriers when the only barrier is their own dysfunctional culture and family structure. Nor do I need to be humble about having a loving and supporting family and working my rear off to be successful in my career. If anyone should show humility its the democRATS who thought they knew best how to help blacks but ended up screwing up countless black lives, and not just the millions that they aborted.
To nitpick, it was actually Nikola Tesla who invented alternating current that the world operates. Edison was pushing direct current (think car battery) that needed amplification every few blocks. Tesla's AC system could span long distances, although the high voltage made it dangerous. Don't remember how or why Edison got credit for Tesla's invention when Edison switched to AC.
Side fact: Tesla worked for Edison until he got frustrated with Edison's direct current obsession, not to mention Edison's tyrannical control of his subordinates.
In general, anything Hillary! wants, the US should do the exact opposite.
So, I guess, whites need to kick ass and show no mercy.
Your post #65.
Your information well taken here. I just somehow read old textbooks and Thomas Edison seemed to be revered. Even has a museum out of his laboratory. Yes, alternating current has it in spades.
I learned most of the above on a History Channel show, but don't remember why Edison reversed electrical course, so to speak. Tesla is one of the most unsung inventors of all time. Think he was Austrian or Serbian.
I do not have the actual information regarding Edison’s change of mind It could be that the problems with stationary batteries and their deterioration became obvious.
Obviously of very high intelligence, as you point out, he was probably very dogmatic. Just stubbornly clung to his initial idea. This until he used his commonsense.
Just an amazing invention. Faraday gets recognition, as you will know by the measure Farads.
I want her hung, electric chaired, and then put in front of a firing squad. Then I want her to rot in prison for 500 years. If after that she can prove to be a reformed human, set her free.
Hilterly is not a very humble whitey.
Without the black underclass liberal elites couldn’t be elected to a city dog catcher position... They damn well better bow down before BLM...
