No, I think Markle is a quadroon, maybe a mullato at best. But not black.

She is, by her own admission, at least 75 percent white.

The monarchy is not supposed to be involved in politics. Not publicly anyway. I hope Charles can distance himself from politics as he is supposed to.

I actually got to shoot off Bastille Day fireworks in New Mexico one night, in the middle of nowhere, with a French model.

Those days are gone now. Now I’m happy.

Johann von Ewald the Hessian officer wrote in his Diary of the American War, that after the defeats at Trenton Princeton, he knew the war was lost. Prior to Trenton the British and Hessians held the American army in contempt and a few days later after the Battle of Princeton they continually feared and respected the Americans under Washington. December 25, 1776 to January 3, 1777 truly was ten days that changed the world forever.

These things aren't "day to day politics", they're the overall trajectory of a nation.

The Queen, she seems like she was a nice graceful gal, but in a time that required firm guidance and re-directing a nation towards a better place... she was merely a nice graceful gal.

Not a LaRouche fan here, but not a fan of your sightless royal boot-licking either.

Very sad news. Classy all the way and one cool lady. She took her duties seriously. She understood the role she was born into included embodying the ideal UK citizen and ideal Anglican, a very tall order, even impossible. She was not perfect, no one is. But she truly did her best.

Princess Elizabeth working as a mechanic during WWII:

Dammit, you stated perfectly what I wanted to say. But you said it without being offensive or way too wordy.

Nicely stated.

The policy now is to use the highest number from Scotland or England.

So if they had a new UK King called Kenneth, he would be Kenneth IV, a Malcolm would be Malcolm V.

LOL, I thought, “Damn that’s kinda cold...but oh well, the comment was nice so I’ll just take the new sobriquet gracefully”.

I think Markle should make a stronger anti-Trump statement and make sure she is never in the same country as him.

“What Is Camilla Parker Bowles’ Royal Title?”

“Consort”?

Queen Elizabeth did a distinguished job for the UK for 70 years. Will Biden go to her funeral? Or send Harris? Either alternative seems appalling.

The late Queen settled it earlier this year. Camilla is Queen Consort.

I can’t understand how the English or any people allow the grooming of young girls and the subsequent rapes by the Moslems. Or any others who do such things. Politicians and police that virtually look the other way, it’s sickening.
