“I understand the pride of black folks who have seen elected as President one of their own. That is not something to be taken lightly, no matter how misguided their Champion may be, as I believe he is.”
Oh I know you are so very right. This would be yanking a dream right out from under them and they would NEVER say it was anything other than racism. They would never say anything different.
Sadly though, I don’t see him being President mending any fences in that regard either. I see it emboldening racist thugs, particularly out of Chicago and Wright types of folks.
I find it sad that they were sold an illegal bill of goods. They got ripped off once again.
For that we can thank Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the rest of the race hustlers.
In a sane world, we would have elected Dr. Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell: brilliant and proud black men who really would have brought racial harmony to all those except for whom skin color remains a source of power and not a meaningless accident of birth.
The biggest hurt must be “he’s one of them”. BO used the African American who in reality have little in common with him....Alan Keyes, and Clarence Thomas have similar heritage, but alas they’re led by folks like Ayers and Axelrod......Con men.
OTOH Jesse J tried to tell them, but his son and other more progressive members of their party shut him up. Hope JJ is on every news program saying: “I tried to tell you! You wouldn’t listen!”
