You may be interested to know that, in fact, economists and sociologists have demonstrated the effects of racial discrimination throughout the twentieth century. They have quantified its effects on health outcomes, employability, criminal sentencing, and much more.

You might try such studies as _The Philadelphia Negro_ (surely, you could not call his intellectual pedigree into question) or the more recent _Whitewashing Race_, by Duster, et al and _When Affirmative Action Was White_. The conclusions these books reach may not be to your liking, but you would have to disagree with the interpretation of the evidence, not the fact of the existence of evidence.

When the governments of England, Europe and other nations sought to diminish God’s sovereign will in their lives and abuse his church by enacting laws that oppressed his children while seeking to squash the anointing in their lives and their triumphant perfection in Christ Jesus, God brought a seed to AMERICA. This seed was to establish a new beginning where there would be pure religion. Where Jesus could be world and without bonds and God’s Kingdom could advance in the hearts of men and in turn evangelize the world. God brought the Puritans over and other religious group who were not perfect but they all acknowledged that Jesus Christ was Lord. Lord means King, ruler. Paul reminds us in II Corinthians, “Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty”

Individuals have questioned who America was named after but AM ER I CA was named after it’s maker, “I AM THAT I AM.” Here is what we find when we look at “What’s in a name?!” I and AM refer to God even as Jesus, the Son, referred to himself numerous times as “I AM” i.e. I am bread, I am light, I am drink, I am life, I am truth. CA refers to the word came. ER means where from. ER is also the abbreviation for Europe.

There are many more names, terms and phrases that witness to fact that Jesus chose America for a special purpose. Space here prevents me from going into if further. Yet should you wish more information on this you may email me at (tmclendon@hot.rr.com) I have two books currently our entitled “Satan Loose in Public Schools and Loving It or Psychology of the Devil Course I II and II, and Satan Loose in Public Schools and Loving It Part II or Reverse Psychology of the Devil Backfired.” To look at the last book check out https://www.createspace.com/3444773. Jesus will bless you if you share this with other who may wish to share the truth.

I am a liberal and indoctrination has nothing to do with it. There is far more of that going on in the charter and religious schools that school choice folks would send their kids to. For the record, I am a pubic high school English teacher and I have to say, I get more trouble from conservative parents who want to impose their values about what should and should not be taught in the classroom than the other way around. My liberal parents by and large appreciate my attempts to produce thinkers and challenge students perceptions, while the highly conservative parents are far more likely to protest a book based on the idea that it violates some higher moral law.

With that said, I oppose schools of choice, vouchers in particular, because it does nothing to improve education in poor communities. Here is the deal. If a kid lives in St. Louis on the other side of the “tracks,” where there is only one school and that school is failing, how is a poor person going to get his or her kid to a better school that could be miles away. If I have no car, I’m stuck. Vouchers do not cover transportation cost most times. Also, vouchers do not always cover the full cost of tution to a new school. And there is the little issue of who wants to bring students into their schools that will lead them to not making AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress)? What keeps a school from picking and choosing.

Okay, some choice programs allow people to choose a public school of his or her choice. How about this one, what if a kid is in a failing system and the only choice he or she has is another failing school in the system. Humm? What happens when the best school in the system reaches capacity?

Schools of choice is one viable option so long as there are choices, and so long as we take into account that just giving the option to go to a better school does not mean that parents have the resources to send them. Free public education is a right and the system needs to be improved to give all kids a level playing field. You will get no arguements from me. Simply saying, “choose a better school” may not be vialble.

Sanders, your remarks are disrespectful and they are that way, maybe because you can see this design, but your vision may be a bit blurred due to refussing to release your Ideologies that everything is fair and everyone has to work hard to achieve it. Your ideas are based on popular belief, not factual basis.

I’m wide awake, but seems that your eyes are wide shut. Again not a color issue, but a design a design that has limits and once those limits begin to be crossed or overwhelmed–technicalities are absorbed to enforce these limits.

Okay. now ROBERT! Any self respecting black man would never call Obama a racist. What makes him/his wife a racist? Racist against who? And why are you calling yourself an Afro-American? Do you have an Afro? Seriously!! It’s African American. Don’t down play yourself as if you are based from a hair texture or stlye.

Think about this ROBERT! Could Jesse Jackson just be jealous? He did run for president years ago and it was a major upset. Jesse Jackson could not run this country, nor his congregation. Jesse Jackson, says he’s going to burry the “N” word then he get’s on live television, after they had a “Mock Funeral” to Murder the “N” word and he stupidly says, “Obama thinks he can tell “N’s” how to think”.

So please Jesse Jackson is no conversation piece. Obama is articulate and educated on this government structure far more than Jesse Jackson and he’s simply jealous. Or how do you say it, “He’s Hating” or “He’s a Player Hater”…lol.

Lastly, ANNIE! The democrats didn’t destroy Hillary, they Democratic party thought Obama is the best choice to get the White House for their party. They figured that Hillary didn’t have a good chance of winning against McCain. Hillary isn’t upset, I think she’s a great lady.

Now the Palin issue is a different story. It’s not sexist that she can’t speak very well and has now clue about foreign policy and energy crisis issues. I could discuss these issues and out debate her, not that she’s a dumb lady, I believe she’s very intelligent, but not ready for a position that has the balance of the American society at stake. She stumbled and fumble of simple topics that someone running for office should be able to discuss or atleast sound like she knows what’s going on. It’s nothing sexist about her inability to discuss the issues.

Last, Joe the Plumber. Who puts a plumber on a campaign trail and allows him to answer questions about Obams beliefs on foreign policy and Isreal.

Finally, no matter if Obama wins. It will still be a division and no unity among the races. Though his winning will give leverage to the phrase, I’m not racist; there’s a black president.

” I said the design makes it impossible for everyone to achieve high levels of income. This is not the basis of being lazy, it’s the basis of opportunity and who this opportunity is provided to.

Everyone wants to succeed. Though you need a opportunity to succeed to high levels. Certain groups or classes aren’t provided these opportunities. It’s not a belief, but a design.”

Your thesis is based in a lie. There are literally thousands of successful CEO’s who are non white. There are thousands of successful politicians who are non white. There are thousands of successful people of all classes and races that started from poverty some not even born and raised in this country in the USA. All you have to do to see them is take your head out of your ass.

There is nothing so sad as those with perfect eyes who refuse to see. Wake up Vasio.

Of course, there are ways of undermining initiative. Government can punish it by disincentivizing effort, but that is a gross method that has failed badly in the past and led to violence and class warfare. Better to feed the public estrogen or estrogen-mimicking chemicals. Then “redistribution of wealth” will not feel so bad.
