But right now, I have someone just as unqualified who hates the country he is supposed to be leading. At least you could count on Palin to put the country's interests first.<br /><br />The ONLY reason a leftist lightweight with no documented past became president (even after the incompetence of Bush) is the fact that he was able to sell himself as "black" (which he is not). <br /><br />There is, and has been for at least 50 years, no such thing as "White privilege". The political advantage of being "Black" is obvious in the way the identity was assumed by the son of a white liberal when it was convenient.<br /><br />The reason Black America allies itself with socialist "progressives" whose main goal is the destruction of America as it is (aka "Change") is out of a need for revenge fueled by racial hatred. Your own words betray this. There is no rational reason to destroy your best chance for freedom and prosperity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-23273533763487121532010-05-12T14:02:22.920-04:002010-05-12T14:02:22.920-04:00rikyrah,
As I said, asking hypothetical questions...rikyrah,<br /><br />As I said, asking hypothetical questions is silly, especially when you ask the everyday standard question posed by blacks:<br /><br />What if __________ were black? Then...<br /><br />Inasmuch as the impossible is not about to happen, why ask?<br /><br />As I said, Sarah Palin is NOT heading for the Republican presidential nomination. She is having the time of her life leading the charge until the next election season gets rolling. She's suddenly making a lot of money, traveling all over and hitting heights few get to enjoy.<br /><br />But her future as a national figure running for high office is over. She's a cheerleader, not a candidate. Her job is to get under your skin, and from your comments, she has clearly succeeded.no_slappzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207475509053402475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-65502251731580332812010-05-12T13:48:07.892-04:002010-05-12T13:48:07.892-04:00Hello rikyrah,

But, that was then, and the past is past.<br /><br /><i>Why? Because he wasn't born in the early 1970's, he was born in 1922.</i><br /><br />In other words, you know the country has changed for the better.<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>Or my late mother, who graduated Phi Beta Kappa, along with 2 of her sisters, yet had two career options open to her: teacher or social worker. <br /><br />Why? Because my mother, the youngest of my grandmother's children, was born in 1930.</i><br /><br />Yes. Your mother was in the same boat as almost all women -- educated or not -- born before WWII. My mother was also a Phi Beta Kappa college graduate. She got an English degree from Northwestern. What doors does that degree open? The same teacher and social worker doors your mother faced. Different times. Different times.<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>Had nothing to do with how smart or capable she, my father and literally millions of other Black folks were:<br /><br />THEY WERE BLACK. <br /><br />and thus, they were NEVER going to be allowed opportunities. So, who got those opportunities?<br /><br />Mediocre White folk who never had to seriously compete for anything.</i><br /><br />Oh. With so much black talent around and available, why were there no black entrepreneurs gladly hiring these capable people?<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>Not when we have SARAH PALIN being paraded around as 'qualified' to be in line for the Presidency of the United States. </i><br /><br />Sarah Palin is NOT heading for the Republican presidential nomination. She is a "stalking horse". Her "campaigning" is no more serious than the presidential "campaigning" of Jesse Jackson and Pat Paulson.<br /><br />She represents the Republican party, but there is no plan for her to LEAD the Republican Party.<br /><br />You asked:<br /><br /><i>WHAT IF SARAH PALIN WERE BLACK?</i><br /><br />Hypothetical questions are always silly. Yours especially. However, during the later years of the Bush administration, it was suggested the Republicans should nominate Condolezza Rice to run in 2008.<br /><br />Thus, we already know a black female gets serious consideration from top Republican party members. <br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>the answer to that one is all you need to know about White Privilege in America.</i><br /><br />My representative in Congress is Yvette Clarke, a black woman who lied to voters, claiming she had graduated from college, when, in fact, she had dropped out. When confronted, she said she FORGOT that she never got her degree. <br /><br />Even though her lack of a degree would not have disqualified her in the eyes of black voters who form the large majority of voters in my district, she lied. Of course, the black voters elected her anyway, and she has continued her practice of lying to constituents. Her supporters love her lies.no_slappzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207475509053402475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-54594906586315213512010-05-11T08:47:23.190-04:002010-05-11T08:47:23.190-04:00"Anyway, in another post on this site YOU bla..."Anyway, in another post on this site YOU blabbed about how the crime rate in a black middle-class neighborhood in Queens was far higher than the crime rate in nearby less-affluent white territory."<br /><br />LIAR.uptownstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07164906982041409346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-18174161955394617312010-05-11T08:18:19.247-04:002010-05-11T08:18:19.247-04:00outta-town-steve:

But your stats are way out of date. For 2009, Russia reported 17,500 murders, close to the number of murders in the US. But Russia has half the population of the US. Therefore, the Russian murder rate, that is, the murder rate in All-White Russia, is TWICE the US rate.<br /><br />However, when looking at the US stats, if you separate murders by race, then you find the murder rate among blacks is 3.5 times the murder rate in Russia. <br /><br />Meanwhile, the murder rate in South Africa is nothing less than astounding. As high as the murder rate is among blacks in America, it is several times higher in South Africa.<br /><br />You wrote:<br /><br /><i>Do you believe that an educated middle class black man is anymore likely to be violent than his white or Asian counterpart?</i><br /><br />People who are members of the middle class by way of education and employment are far less likely than poor, uneducated people to commit criminal acts of violence.<br /><br />If more blacks obtained real educations -- the kind that elevate a person to the middle class -- then crime in black communities would likely drop.<br /><br />However, even though entry into the middle class predicts a life with little violence, a comparison of black, white and asian middle class citizens will yield the same old results. The violence that occurs will be distributed in the usual way, with blacks the most violent, whites next and asians the least violent.<br /><br />Here in Flatbush Brooklyn, my state senator is Kevin Parker, a hot-headed black representative who has physically attacked a few people, including a NY City Parking Agent and a photographer.no_slappzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207475509053402475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-63414482985706891882010-05-10T20:53:02.890-04:002010-05-10T20:53:02.890-04:00"And people like you wonder why blacks reject..."And people like you wonder why blacks reject the GOP."<br /><br />Because they hate "self-responsibility"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-23744374899424223392010-05-10T20:46:43.986-04:002010-05-10T20:46:43.986-04:00CF
