I agree whole heartedly with both dbrowers and hadassah. You seem more informed than everyone else

First of all this country was founded by rapists, murderers, and theives. Something you will not learn in history class. This whole sick system called the United States Of America was built by sick criminal minds that take advantage of the weak and innocent. Think about the criminal justice system. It is justice for the criminal. If you can throw out evidence that prooves someone guilt or innocence, who is really benefiting? This world is currently upside-down the people who belong on the buttom or currently on top. And one last message to the white people: You have been lied to your whole lives, you are not or ever will be superior to anyone. *EDITED*

As regard to Geraldine Ferraro's cry for another study on Race in America, ain't nothing changed since the Kerner Commission reported that there were two America's "One Black and One White", but another division of labor. There are, in fact, "Three America's", now including "One Brown" represented by a greater number of people from Latin, Asian and Middle Eastern countries. Nowadays, there are less blacks in America due to abortion genocide and fratricide while brown people are under attack by the same tactical forces that have ruined Black American progress. And because of immigration labor and low wage increases, that do not keep up with inflation, for many, life in American cities is worsening with an increase in unemployment, homelessness and crime. Morality is at an all-time low due to white feminism and homosexual promiscuity and a "anything goes mentality".
Our latchkey children are raising themselves due to a seventy percent divorce rate since the 1960's, as female head of households struggle with work and school to survive, while many fathers are fantasizing in a sex culture that rivals Sodom and Gomorrah. High numbers of men have shirked their responsibility of raising their children for one reason or another, mainly because of the lingering effects of institutionalized racism and cowardice. White men in police uniforms think that every time they see men of color they can abuse their authority by using profiling and intimidation while provoking indignant anger that gives way to retaliation by nazi-police brutality as they frame, scapegoat and blame someone for the ills of the larger culture, while locking men of color up at an alarming rate, when in actuality the evils that America is experiencing has always been perpetrated and allowed to fester by evil white think-tank organizations who quietly plot to control the masses.
Many deserve their punishment for participating in the drug culture and crime but an unethical and unjust court system wrecks havoc and creates further divisions when cover-up and blatant disregard for equal rights and access to justice is denied over and over again as the majority of crime is committed by whites and then the media portrays the news in a distorted fashion with black face disguise. A slave labor pool has been created for Corporate America with the increase of the private prison complex. Unfortunately, some black and brown children have given up on education and a lack of parental guidance is dumbing down all races and many more will somehow find their way into this traphole. People do not read anymore and are educated by gadgets and electronic media that has produced mindless robots, puppets, bitches and ho's while the established order fails to provide adequate funding and educational materials and buildings for inner city school systems.
The entertainment and party culture has replaced the truest art forms that once created genuises and now reward a hip-hop and thug mentality for corrupting society. Furthermore, America has become a Nazi-like government with a Big-brother mentality that encourages suspicion, fear and hatred among the minority groups of people while trying to maintain the status quo and racial superiority concepts of the white-ruling class. Corporate greed and fraudulent schemes by the Wall Street banking industry and other sectors of the economy is causing greater poverty. Dishonest business practices are the norm for many who try to employ, provide insurance, pay taxes and earn profits while dealing with downturns, outsourcing and fallen dollar values. As generational wealth is handed down to those in their gated communities and private educational institutions the darker Two America's war for turf and crumbs left behind by selfish vultures. Democracy has been replaced by government corporate lobbying and its military weapons complex of ex-generals and politicians, with its armies and contract mercenaries that bully, slaughter and rape as they try to convert other nations of people by force to a westernized cultutre with false prophets and missionaries who mislead the masses with a watered down version of Christianity. The fleecing of America continues in Congress, the State Houses and at the local city and town levels with selfish beauracrats rewarding friends and family and keeping Jim Crow alive with corrupt political gamesmanship.
The only way that things can change, is if, for one, White-America comes out of denial, the old foggies who still think and do evil die off and their offspring realize that they must repent and turn from their wicked ways; and black and brown people fall on their knees and do the same, or we all will see and feel the Wrath of God Almighty soon. There is hope, but it is not with another study or report Mrs. Ferraro, because those are smokescreens and mirrors that exhibit unrealistic findings that are used to determine how quotas should be established for the allocation of resources, when it is already known what we need to survive. Just ask the people! Grant free education, equal access to jobs and working capital and free healthcare. Stop with your own racism and warmongering. Then moblilize your people to deliver the services and the other Two America's will return to a semblance of civility and then more of us will be able to help those in need in our own families and others throughout the entire world. Sober up America! Come out of your alcoholic stupor, your tobacco and drug crazed minds and soften up your harded heart. If not, you will face a rude awakening by total self destruction before Armageddons appointed time.

I never knew Geraldine Farraro was so infantile. That little angry girl in her is out of control.
How would you like her to be President when the red phone rings at 3am?

Me too, Nez. I have visceral reaction to all this crap!

it turns my stomach.

Hey Chi Chi and Andre. Thanks for your thoughtful comments. What perplexes me is why Hillary supporters are not pressuring Clinton to run a cleaner campaign. I know a few Clinton supporters and they are good, ethical and racially conscious people. But on this stuff they just shrug, resigned to this kind of behavior from her surrogates. I really don't understand it.

Excellent points Chi Chi/Carmen.

One would be hard-pressed to argue that this campaign has been a real learning experience.

It's fascinating to watch the Clintons; whom many of us would've gladly supported before all this nonsense; get exposed for who they really are whenever they feel a bit of pressure. When the person applying the heat happnes to be black, we start seeing all the race-baiting, smearing, and -- most notably -- the strong sense of White Entitlement they have. With every attack that Hill personally orchestrates and every surrogate attack she casually dismisses, we get to see the Clintons' true colors (pun intended).

**On a side note, I'm curious to know what weapons the Clintons would've pulled out if John Edwards was the opponent. Would his status as a white southern come into play?**

Back to the point, despite all we've seen from Hill and her white surrogates up to this point, she's still been able to secure a comfortable amount of support from black politicians. I don't know HOW, but she's even mustered considerable support from the Congressional Black Caucus (or, as I like to see them: the Crab Barrel Caucus). In their own right -- even THEY have facilitated attacks on Obama. That's absolutely mind boggling to me. I've been done with them for a while now. But this is the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.

The Clinton campaign has surely surprised me as much as Obama's popularity with all voters, particularly white. I am saddened that the white politicians I once admired have shown what they really think of black people. Stay in your place, because I will remind you every step you take that you're black and inferior. Barack is eloquent, smart, attractive and inspirational. All the Clintons and their cohorts can see is black. They want to bring him down with their gutter antics and keep him on the defensive.

I want the changes that Obama talks about that we can make as a country. The color of his skin is so unimportant as to whether or not he can help us lift ourselves up. I've been seriously worried about the direction in which we are headed as a nation and glad I didn't have grandchildren to leave this mess to, but along comes Obama to inspire. I hope the Democratic party gets a hold of itself and helps the best person win, but not through dirty, undermining tactics. Were the Republications behind all the mess now facing Florida and Michigan? This fiasco throws water on the Democratic campaign, while McCain has all the time to plot and maneuver.

How can the country, with the Clintons back in the White House, get back on its feet with a couple who will stoop to the philosophy that the end justifies the means? How can I believe that these two people have the country's best interest at heart? And, you know, it's all about feelings and belief. We have not much to go on with any of them!
