I nominate Shan Wang at the racist Boston Globe as the most vile, racist scribbler in the racist Northeast and the whole state of racist Massachusetts, including the stinky racist burg of Boston and the entire racist county where that smelly racist town stands, bar none.

Zero is the most racist. He and Holder have tried to replace constitutional government and deliberative lawmaking with a single-party, racist unconstitutional shariah regime, and create conditions to lead to civil war, anarchy, and the destruction of all white people — something he no doubt picked up from the Nation of Islam, via Jeremiah Wright.

Carter (who was at least natural-born American, but therefore a traitor) made his infamous “ethnic purity” remark, which should have been tagged on every urban wall, but of course it wasn’t, and it’s never brought up by the Partisan Media Shills, like the one who wrote this hit piece.

I’d be very surprised if every President (including the current faux-POTUS/fauxTUS) hadn’t dropped the N-bomb at some time in their lives. I mean, seriously, Truman, who despite his poisonously partisan rants and raves, remains popular with most people — but who can feign surprise learning that he’d used the term along with all his other rusticisms.

What you say is probably true.

Now, does the United States come into being and defeat the British if Slavery is pushed hard at the inception of our nation? No.

Was it best to connect, then address the issue later? I believe so.

Was it good to put language in the Constitution so that men could read it and come to terms with that concept? Yes.

In roughly 70 years the issue would be confronted. The language that confronted it from day one in our nation’s existence was Jefferson’s.

The Founding Fathers agreed to that language. They went on record endorsing that viewpoint concerning all men.

In a real sense, these were men caught with their hand in the cookie jar, but willing to put forth the idea they were wrong to have it in there. At some point they thought slavery should be confronted.

Jefferson’s language did not confront the issue of chattel slaver. If one looks at his words, is easy to see that the reference to all being created equal was in reference to white men being created equal. The fact that the Constitution is relatively silent on the issue of slavery is because no compromise could be reached between those colonies were slaver was legal and those colonies were it was outlawed. The decision, in itself sort of a compromise, was to punt the issue, not address it. 70 years later, the blood of over 600 thousand men would spill over the American landscape to settle the issue. I somehow do not see that as a “best to connect, than address the issue later” as a noble act on the part of the Founders of our Republic.

Okay, then you’d rather we be under British rule then.

If we didn’t unify, we would have had a very hard time defeating the British. We barely achieved that as it was.

I’m not knowledgeable enough to comment on your assertion chattel or no.

Completely different error back then so today’s standards don’t apply. Times change.. What about white slavery? We white slave owners of white slaves racist?

The Irish slave trade began when James II sold 30,000 Irish prisoners as slaves to the New World. His Proclamation of 1625 required Irish political prisoners be sent overseas and sold to English settlers in the West Indies. By the mid 1600s, the Irish were the main slaves sold to Antigua and Montserrat. At that time, 70% of the total population of Montserrat were Irish slaves.

Ireland quickly became the biggest source of human livestock for English merchants. The majority of the early slaves to the New World were actually white.

From 1641 to 1652, over 500,000 Irish were killed by the English and another 300,000 were sold as slaves. Ireland’s population fell from about 1,500,000 to 600,000 in one single decade. Families were ripped apart as the British did not allow Irish dads to take their wives and children with them across the Atlantic. This led to a helpless population of homeless women and children. Britain’s solution was to auction them off as well.

6 ... And MLK was right behind him when he said it.

Please disclose your source regarding MLKJr.

The first known record of LBJ's quote is from Ronald Kessler's book, Inside the White House: The Hidden Lives of the Modern Presidents and the Secrets of the World’s Most Powerful Institution, written in 1996, 30 years after LBJ allegedly said those words.

From what I read about Kessler's book, LBJ was onboard a jetliner with 2 Democrat politicians, I think state governors, when he supposedly made the statement. The anecdote, while sounding very earthy like LBJ, was, at best, a 2nd hand account.

You missed the point... people owned slaves all over the world. African merchants sold Africans in the slave trade and continue to do so today. On the good side, using your post, word origin and history for racist is linked back originally in the context of Nazi theories.

Slaves were thought of as property and until that thought process changed from property to the “all men are created equal” phase of our history slavery and racism didn’t coexist.

And lets not forget white slavery which I posted to another FR..

It is not possible for someone born into a Designated Victim group to be “races” because only someone born into a Designated Oppressor group is eligible for the Scarlet Letter of Racism. And once accused, one is presumed guilty and can never be proven innocent.

That Obama is one of the most racially divisive Presidents in history is more than arguable. Several times he and his administration has insinuated itself into situations in which he has no jurisdiction, taking sides on racial lines and fanned the flames of racial tensions while investigations were in progress.

When Trayvon Martin was shot by George Zimmerman, it pleased the President to offer that if he had a son, he would look like Trayvon — before Zimmerman was even indicted [which should never have happened in the first place]. Both parties looked like somebody’s son, but only the one the same color as the President was embraced as one of his own. He made it clear to the public that innocence or guilt should be determined by race, rather than evidence. The result was innocent people being targeted for racially motivated attacks.

When Michael Brown was shot by Officer Darren Wilson, Obama’s appointed AG Eric Holder demanded a federal investigation, while the local one was in its early stages, even embracing notorious racial hoax perpetrator Al Sharpton before a crowd in Ferguson. This certainly did nothing to quell the rioting, looting and racially motivated attacks upon innocents.

And then we have that same AG who refused to investigate New Black Panther Party members in faux combat gear and sporting clubs who had staked out polling places in Philadelphia, with videos showing them shouting racial epithets at anyone of the wrong demographic would would dare to exercise their voting franchise in their presence.

Wilson was elected from NJ, but was a VIRGINIA DEMOCRAT. HATED Blacks like most Southern libtards.

Exactly where did I state the notion that I support remaining under British rule. Though if we had remained under British rule, slavery in the colonies would have ended in 1833 instead of 1865 and avoided killing 600,000 men in the process. The idea that we were “united” to fight the British rule in the Colonies is a misunderstanding of our history. About one third of the population in the Colonies actively support revolution against British rule. About one third population actively supported continuing British rule. The remaining third tried avoiding choosing sides. After the Revolution was won, thousands of people left the Colonies for Canada or the British West Indies to avoid reprisal for actively supporting the Crown.

Nixon was an anti-Communist and probably had issues with Marxist Jews but not with anti-Communist ones.
