There's only five on a basketball team, eleven on a football team, one on a tennis court, and one for golf. All the other jobs require above shoulder input to society. Sorry its true tribe members of ACORN. ACORN members do not many choices to add to society or their family.

As a white male in my fifties I have seen blacks so patronized, so minimized into thinking their lives are in the hands of a bunch of white people or black racists in congress that it has driven me to a point of such desperation that I wanted to shake them by the shoulders. I can give you a perspective of a white male going to college in Massachusetts in the 70's and I have seen the true impact of affirmative action... it affirms that blacks are inferior and need help and if affirms the white bigot's feeling that blacks are inferior, know it, and are worse than white people because they are perfectly willing to discriminate if it benefits them... As a white student in the 70's I saw black students who didn't apply themselves because they knew they were untouchable and "special" while white students studied harder for lesser grades. I saw black students getting away with things that white students were suspended for or for which they were tossed out of school. I saw government turning promising students into wards of the state who would never reach their potential because of government intervention and the classification of them. I watched while the college closed the book store while black students went it, got free books, then opened the doors for the rest of the students who paid full price or by the time they went in all the books for class were gone. I saw black students get A's from black professors because they were black even though they didn't show up to a single class and spent their time in the pool hall on campus while white students got the mandatory C's, D's, and occasional F from the same professor even though they were there every day participating in class. I saw white students go into the recreation area and be told by the black student attendent who got the job that white students couldn't even apply for that all the tables were taken and they would have to wait and then seen black students walk in and go right to the tables without paying. I've never been a black man and will never pretend to understand a black person's experience but it sure felt like racial discrimination to me while I was living it... only I was white. It felt awful, degrading, and frustrating. I resented those responsible. I could go on and on. Perhaps in a perverted way it helped me understand a little better but the one thing it didn't do was break my spirit nor make me feel less than what I was. I just realized the situation and figured out a way to deal with it. That's not a "white" trait that's a human trait. But I also saw black students who didn't buy into that whatsoever, black professors that made you work for your grade and learn regardless of skin color. The aforementioned student body and alumni were brutal in their criticism of these students and professors and most of the students came to realize that there would be ignorant people that we must address, hateful people that will be in charge of some aspects of our lives, and good people that will come to the forefront no matter what. At the risk of sounding like the guy who might say "some of my best friends are black" I would unequivocably state that I had a professor, who was black, that was so influential in my life that I became a police officer and have done so for four decades, whose words I still remember, whose counsel I will never forget, and who I owe a great deal in my life... and he doesn't even know it. The things he taught me about racism and colonialization of people resonate even today and I can apply it when I make my observations of life, our current experience, our current President, and how people's life experiences will impact their outlook on society. Anybody that can't recognize that our President is an elitist, racist, and many of his associates and congressmen and women are the same just doesn't understand the concept. "The colonized take on the traits of the colonizer... twice-fold" was a quote from my professor. In other words they will be worse when given the opportunity because it means survival and elevation in status to them. Ethnocentrism, "thingification" and "dehumanization" of those colonized results in elitists treating them as such and will result in an effort to "correct" the situation by those colonizers that feel superior, but make attempts that in reality exacerbate their situation." Did we not see Barbara Boxer do exactly that to a successful entrepeneur military veteran just recently? He, however, called her out on it which, to me, was a sign that "things... they are a changin" when it comes to race relations. I've been a cop since 1976 and we've moved well beyond that balogna because we rely on each other to survive and would die for each other if the truth be known or admitted. Despite the politicians' attempts or the racial baiters' attempts to keep it going, it is going to disappear like it almost has in law enforcement. We're a lot further ahead than they will admit and I believe we'll be all right. It just might take a little more time.

The illegal aliens will continue to DEMAND entitlements just because they are hispanic ( I use them because they are the largest group) and we will continue to see signs and everything else in Spanish. McCain pandering to the hateful, racist La Raza doesn't help and Obummer appointing an idiot from that group to his cabinet of morons doesn't bode well for anyone. As an educator in the public school system the liberal crap is spread just like islam is a religion of peace. Blacks and hispanics scream the liberal mantra in angry tones and now the fugly Michelle O is their regning despot. I despair for our country. Seeing the Mexican crap flag flying in CA is absurd and wrong. Love your blog and the arms of MO is so funny! So nice an itelligent person is out there writing the truth and you don't like Obummer and see him as the dangerous idiot that he is.

Can`t wait to receive your book. I`ve been telling everyone I know, whether they want to listen or not, about the scumbag progressive whites exploiting the poorest of the poor in ACORN. Rep. Conyers will not allow an investigation of ACORN, the white progressives who run ACORN are suing the ACORN 8 and Anita Moncrief. Since none of this is on the state run media Afro-Americans are unaware of these facts. It`s a damn shame. Keep fighting the good fight. America needs you. Hey love your site.

My grandmother came here legally and it was difficult, believe me. My mother said she would rather commit suicide (and we're Catholic) then take welfare (my father decided he didn't have pay child support and his employer enabled him by lying about his salary) I have advanced degrees in history (no, I hate the revisionist type) and I only attended private schools. The wealthy Catholics with their donations allowed for grammar school to remain free for many years. I hate affirmative action and said so when I applied for college ( I had a grade for the SAT's in the top 3%) and applied for Regents scholarships when they offered them. I never whined nor made excuses. I am tired of paying for illegal aliens that invade and break the laws of my country!!! But Hispanics who also refuse to learn English believe they deserve any and all entitlements (WIC, Section 8, Welfare, food stamps anyone) I say learn English, stay in school, stop getting pregant and stop playing the victim. That's my rant!! Thanks... I will add that Hispanics need to wake up and smell the cafe. My grandmother came here legally and it was difficult, believe me.
