quote:
ORIGINAL: Level
quote:
blamed America for starting the AIDS virus
Please read "Vaccine A" by Gary Matsumoto before you toss that one.
You're saying that book will prove that the United States created AIDS?
No...read the book and then we can discuss this question.
quote:
creating a racist society that would never elect a black candidate president.
That would appear to still hold true.
The fact that a black man is steamrolling towards the White House, and drawing huge, enthusiastic crowds, puts that claim to rest, for me.
When and if that happens...until then his claim still holds.
quote:
Racism is how this country was founded and how this country is still run.
Yup...still holds true.
This country was founded on a number of things, and of course, racism and slavery existed. But to put the founding, in its entirety, on racism? No.
To say that everything is still propelled by racism, today? No.
Perhaps not being black might "color" your judgment on this point.
quote:
No black man will ever be considered for president
This one will fall only if Obama gets the nomination. Even then I am sure you are quite aware that presidents are appointed in this country and not elected so I will still consider this one true until Obama finishes his first term...Don't forget how long the first catholic lasted.
He is already being "considered". He leads the Democratic party race.
If by "appointed" you mean some sort of Illuminati-ish behind the scenes machinations....... [8|]
Only if you feel the electoral college and the legislature that appoints them are the Illuminati.
quote:
No black woman can ever be considered for anything outside what she can give with her body
Care to hazard a guess how many posts have been on these boards about getting nake with "Condamnisia Rice"
I'd like to fuck her myself, but that doesn't impact on whether I think she's capable in other things. She's a talented and accomplished woman. Surely you don't base your entire world-view on what some posters here think?
I am sure you would agree that the people who post on here represent a cross sectional microcosm of our country.
quote:
We put [Nelson] Mandela in prison and supported apartheid the whole 27 years he was there.
True again. The U.S. even used its security council veto power to prevent an oil embargo on S.Africa and supplied S.Africa with the tools to subjugate its indigenous population.
Our government did not oppose apartheid the way we should have, I agree, but many individual citizens did, including white ones. However, I've yet to see evidence that any Americans flew to South Africa and threw Mr. Mandela into a jail cell.
As I am sure you are well aware the preacher man is referring to the U.S. government and the individuals who lobbied for this sort of proactive stance vis-a-vis South Africa and the system of apartheid.
quote:
We believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God."
Yup...pretty self evident
Some do...... but the numbers grow smaller, I believe. To smear the American nation in its entirety is weak, and wrong, on Rev Wright's part.
Do you think that will happen before our sun implodes? If people like the preacher man do not speak out how will it ever change? The blot of racism falls on all of us so it is our collective responsibility to erase it. Unless and until it is erased we share its collective blame.
quote:
Wright is quoted in the magazine offering praise of Farrakhan "as one of the 20th and 21st century giants of the African American religious experience" and also praised Farrakhan's "integrity and honesty."
What do you have to indicate that Farrakhan is not honest?
What do you have to indicate that Farrakhan is not a man of integrity?
You may be uncomfortable with what he says but sometimes the truth is "inconvenient"
quote:
Hitler was a very great man
O-kay, if you or Rev Wright want to hold Farrakhan up as a model of integrity.......
If you are going to quote Farrakhan don't you feel it would be fair to quote him in his entirety?
"So I said to the members of the press, 'Why won't you go and look into what we are saying about the threats on Reverend Jackson's life?' Here the Jews don't like Farrakhan and so they call me 'Hitler'. Well that's a good name. Hitler was a very great man. He wasn't great for me as a Black man but he was a great German and he rose Germany up from the ashes of her defeat by the united force of all of Europe and America after the First World War. Yet Hitler took Germany from the ashes and rose her up and made her the greatest fighting machine of the twentieth century, brothers and sisters, and even though Europe and America had deciphered the code that Hitler was using to speak to his chiefs of staff, they still had trouble defeating Hitler even after knowing his plans in advance. Now I'm not proud of Hitler's evil toward Jewish people, but that's a matter of record. He rose Germany up from nothing. Well, in a sense you could say there is a similarity in that we are rising our people up from nothing, but don't compare me with your wicked killers.
