I like good people, I don't care what color they are.  Before downsizing got me, we had a black contractor just put in our warehouse. He had got cut from another Co. Under dubious circumstances.  Was Nam vet. Helped get him hired.  Helped him & his family until he did.  Good man!  We use to talk about race relations.  I told him we all need to forget race, and the Good people, white & black, need to be against the Bad people, white & black.   He agreed. 
That was about 26 years ago.  He called me about 4 months ago to meet him.  He gave me a $100 gift card for all I'd done for him so long ago.  This old man had tears in his eyes.  

Growing up in Vidor (don't think less of me Hoop) when I was young @ 1955, I ask my dad if he ever thought about joining the Klan. He told me, "Hell no!  If I want to whip somebodies a$$, white or black, I want them to know who's doing it, not hiding under a sheet".  Here ends the lesson.    
I guess the Klan is alive & well, as are the Black Panthers, & no telling how many other racial/religious groups that I'm not aware of.  Again, Cest La Vie (such is life - for those of you who flunked French like I did).  

​So you like four black people, do you like any blacks that are not republicans, most on this board liked colin powell untill..........

​without the strict gun laws there would be twice as many deaths

​How about a strong christian liberal, will that be ok

Nash, Its been a discussion for years.. I think we all can admit the "opportunity" to bring this issue back to the national forefront is now. Before we all get back comfortable again and be in denial about our race issues. 

I tell you what I do no about the flag. It was the flag of traitors to this nation. A group of men who choose to fight against this nation in order to keep there evil lifestyle. We should not be honoring such evil men. 

I don't watch Fox, Msnbc, Hannitty, Oreilly, Sharpton are none of these fools, it doen't have to be democrat or republican, fox or msnbc, obama or bush, its about being real and not blaming a party, a race or one man for everything that you don't like in this world

This is a really stupid comment. 

​Stop listeneing to the clowns at fox news!

​maybe you noticed the decline in 2008 cause someone got elected you didnt want. Easy to place blame while wearing eye-blinders. Thats fine, America2015. Wussification of America started way before 2008. 

Interracial marriage was illegal untill the 1967 supreme court decision........imagine that.......if it wasn't for the supreme court most nba and nfl players would be single

​But losing still means losing

​Do you care about all facts, or just the ones that fit your agenda?

​
But have you seen the amount of time and energy people are spending on bashing Obama? This thread is about something he wrote before he was in politics. 
And if your right that a Republican won"t get elected if he runs on the constitution, bashing Obama will not change that. It's always better to promote YOUR agenda versus condemning the other party. 
When I buy a car, I want to know why I should buy YOUR car....not why I shouldn't buy from your competition. 
I personally am researching our choices and figuring out who I think will be best for the country.  When it gets down to a few people from each party, then I will debate the negatives of the democratic party.....but for now, IMO it is a waste of time to bash Obama for something he did before politics.......
 

You guys do know that the free phone program started before Obama took office, don't you. Do facts even matter on this board?

who gives a crap what Ben Carson says, if ben Carson was a dem, the pubs on this board wouldn't listen to nothing he says

After both Obamaelection wins, if you look into the audience at the victory speechs, looks to me like mostly whites celebrating and they didnt look like people looking for free stuff 

I don't represent the left

Do you represent the KKK? Alright then.. Stop making baseless claims

Smitty has ANY republican politician ever done anything that you didn't agree with? Are do you (and Steve) have no problem with anything as long as its done by and R

Republicans will kill each other off and democrats win by default in 2016

I don't know about you guys, but I am excited at the thought of a TRUE CONSERVATIVE running for 2016. Those dang liberals in disguise (McCain, Romney, etc) hurt our party. Now that we have a STRONG INDEPENDANT WOMAN who don't need no welfare running well be able to get this country back on the right track.
