So Obama didn't carry West Virginia, (or did he, I can't remember, but my gut says nooooooo). Neither did the Confederacy;-). You just can't pin down the Western Region of Virginia, first colony of this great Nation, Mother or Presidents, motto Sic Semper Tyrannus.
Fuck you, Jenk. I think it's fairly obvious you haven't actually spent any significant time in the State, but it's alright, you know everything you need to know about West Virginian voters based on a few selected (admittedly hilarious) clips of old bigots being polled early in an election cycle. Nah, it's cool, I forgive you for being patronizing and condescending. As someone who did some growing up in West Virginia, I appreciate the now President's assessment of the local character.
For one thing you have two idiots here talking to each other Matthews a white hater and then Mitchell shes married to Alan (federal reserve) greenspan wtf? All of these major NBC,CBS,ABC etc... they are all just robots that will not say anything to rock the boat because they are just little globalist sheep.
obama is antichrist the pope foretold we must not follow his orders or it i come to the destuction of the human race obama must not make us go to another war with russia or north korea or we will all DIE obama said thank you satan aka yes we can and evryone chered thanks satan lets blow up earth i say nuke our foes so we can live stupid ass obama suck a big dick you bastard USA super military Domination USA USA USA USA mother fuckers
If you really think that your vote counts, then the best thing you can do is write in "none of the above". Everyone i've heard of who votes all say the same thing, 'the lesser of the evils'. I say evil is still evil, It reminds me of The Matrix, too many sleeping humans protecting the thing that enslaves them.
Some conservatives wear ignorance like a badge of honor, I suspect because they can't defend their positions. Hell, half the time they can't even tell you their positions. I am so sick of the pandering to these stupid people, that's done not only by politicians but by the media. This has been going on since Ronald Reagan.
Haha! "I hope i can kick his ass at pool, he should be BUSY!" Too right, Cenk. Very similar to David Mitchell talking about British MP Jogn Prescott on, I think, Mock The Week. Check it out on YouTube too, it's a quality rant !
Don't bother, its just the usual propaganda-ist crap about 'death panels' etc. Your video has no quotes just random assertions that conservative media have made which are entirely fictitious.
Remember people, on the coming months of September to December, there were 2 volcanoes that would erupt in the US, the name of these volcanoes have something to do with faith. This eruption is a trumpet blast from God. Repent now people! Avoid pornography, smoking, cursing, fornication, adultery, immorality, occultism etc. Be holy; do not turn to church for salvation, turn to Christ

uneducated people of all races, locations, religions, etc. should be BANNED from voting period. goddamn it, that's the one fundamental flaw with democracy, it's that too many fucking idiots elect leaders based on the dumbest things (like who to have a beer with) when there is so much SHIT ON THE LINE!!!
plato and aristotle were probably rolling in their graves when these morons elected Bush, not once BUT TWICE FOR FUCK'S SAKE!
At least they present logical arguments, with premise following premise, leading to conclusions. The fact that you can do nothing better than meaningless insults reveal your abysmal IQ.
He's telling the truth. The Republicans figured out a long time ago that the working class is mostly... well, stupid. And I know what I'm talking about, because I'm from a blue collar family, and grew up on a Mill Hill. All you have to do is say you love Baby Jeebus, and hate faggots, baby killers, and niggers, and you've got the blue collar vote. And it's absolutely disgusting, because what these people don't realize is that the people they're voting for think they're the scum of the earth.
Working class is stupid? Lol, I've met tons of stupid people all over America. Age, race, class, and gender is not restricted. Stupid is everywhere, stupid votes, they are the biggest block of voters, and the candidates cater to them. Stupid is the biggest group of people in this country, and in the rest of the fucking world too. If you think that's restricted to Christianity, you're ten times as stupid as you really are. Study social psychology and you'll understand.
@burnzorz Best point ever ....this comment would fit as a reply on most of vids online and tv ....someone calls someone stupid or whatever ....this is the proper reply 100% accurate available for all social classes ,religions,races, color etc
and fuck yeah i'm including myself too....i mean WE ALL(human beings) HAVE OUR MOMENTS
@burnzorz He didn't say Christianity is what's responsible for their stupidity. I think he meant that if you just say you love Jesus they'll think you're great and vote for you. That being said though, i think a belief in Christianity is harmful to intelligence because it requires a belief in things contradictory to facts and highly supported and probable theories.
@Zubirrex That's why Technocracy is better then Democracy. Technocracy is a form of government where the ruling power is the skilled or smart. In a technocracy, you'd pretty much need a bachelor's degree to vote, rather then needing to be 18. Of course, the solution to the obvious problem (money) is to make undergraduate education free. I'm not saying certain people shouldn't be allowed to vote, I'm just saying they should get an education first, so that they aren't idiots.
@BrandonSchleifer I like educating all but not paying teacher, who are the most important people in this world when they are actually good at there job. What I think people need is not overall greater education but more political education rather than social studies. You will learn where every country that is important, all the economic issues in the world and whats just happening around us with a simple class about current political issues, social studies should be an honors elective
TYT are possibly the most offensive and anti-American foreign slack-jaws in the public eye. The Founding Fathers would've had idiots like this tarred and feathered before putting them on a fast boat back to Turkey or whatever other hell-hole they came from.
You founding fathers said that anyone in America should have liberties, regardless of race, religion or sex. Also, the constitution states that anyone is free to practice their religion.
The truth is when you say the truth you becomes the ENEMY. Talking about human right, FREEDOM, Justice, animal rite but sorry to say... there are people in America who are still racist and bias. This is the reality. I hope Obama can change America most hated persona.
talking about putting someone up on a pedestal. why not put barack obama up on one right before you kick it out from under him. he nothing but a racist nigger and why not do his racist full blooded monkey wife too. they both benifit from the taxes and they both got what the rest of the lazy non working niggers got free college grants . a free place to live. and what ever else that they could get for free . no wonder they are proud to be blackniggers
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
WOW, I love these fucking jackasses.
Okay. with all the "Hillbillys" in West Virginia
Uneducated more like
Hard workers. unlike the mother fuckers that sit on their lazy asses talking shit on WVa.
yeah there is some uneducated people in West Virginia. but there is uneducated people everywhere you go.
okay so be real fucking proud that your fucking smart. but if it was you and a West Virginian in the middle of nowhere no help within hundred of miles around. whose ass would you kiss to save you?
Either you're a clever Republican or misinformed. The reason he's laughing in this video is becaues he, just like many other Americans don't understand why it's taking so long for people in rural America to catch on to the idea that they are the working class that is supported by the Democrats and continually used by Republicans because they throw catch phrases at them to get their votes and then the actual people who need tax breaks (West Virginians) don't get them, they get McCain/Bush taxes.
OK--so you have a problem with some people in West Virginia having stereotypes about black people. But then you promote another stereotype yourself (that all people in WV are uneducated and stupid) in this video. Don't you see the irony here?
And how is this asshole young turk any different, his views are his, I strongly disagree with 99 percent of what he says, and think he is an uninformed prick, with un moral liberal views, but I respect his right to be who he is.
I'm from West Virginia and graduated from WVU. Guess what moron...you don't "know dick" about West Virginia. We didn't vote for Al Gore in 2000 and we didn't vote for John Kerry in 2004. ...so quit acting like everyone in WV will vote Democrat, but not for a black guy. God willing, WV will go for McCain this time.
Yeah, you just have it so hard in america. Obama is reaching out to idiots like you. Where else can you go to get free money for sitting on you butt all day, free healthcare as an illegal, get to keep your house if you can't pay the mortgage, and vent all your frustrations against individuals who bust there butts to get ahead and you believe they should hand it over to you. ONLY IN AMERICA!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
so everytime a black votes for obama it's because he's black they have no clue what he's about he could be promoting gang raping sheep and blacks would flock to the voting booths in droves just because he is black.
what do you mean by even uneduacated black people? White people haven't been oppressed at all in this fucking country! And they're still stupid in WV. Even a uneducated white person knows that.
This kind of thinking is why whites in the south will always be poor, dumb and uneducated . . . Please wake up and see the real game thats being played on you . . . Vote your wallet not your feeling . . . If you are poor don't vote Republican even uneducated blacks know not to do that . . . Good luck America
Ahem...Agree on the poor whites, but NO ONE would vote Republican of ANY color.. not just "even" (I'm guessing meaning the the dumbest of them all") black people.
This kind of thinking is why whites in the south will always be poor and uneducated . . . Please wake up and see the real game thats being played on you . . . Vote your wallet not your feeling . . . If you are poor don't vote Republican even uneducated niggers know not to do that . . .
Black voters are excited about Obama because he has lived and been active in in a typical black neighborhood, is married to an African-American, was a member of an historically black congregation, and understands what it means to live as a black man in America. Black Americans are used to not being able to relate to their leaders, and now someone like them has a chance. If we'd had 230 years of black presidents, you'd be just as excited at the prospect of a white one.
I totally agree 100%! When people complain about black people supporting Obama because he is black, think about white people voting against Obama for McCain because he is white! Well said!
I never thought I'd ever be grateful for "NOT" failing as a human being,until I started watching this "DEATH MARCH TO THE WHITE HOUSE" as Jon Stewart would say. The evil, with help from the media, newspaper, is truly making me make peace with my higher being. HOW THE HELL DID THIS GET PAST US? I'll tell you, when conpiracy theories were written off as paranoid. THERE'S FACTS NOW PEOPLE. educate yourself. sidenote: If there are "facts" its probably true. If its opnion, then thats what it is!!!
PLEASE DONT READ THIS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE.

I am from WV. Rather I was born there. And I have always said the greatest thing my mother ever did was get us the hell out of there. I grew up in NY and now I live in Southeastern VA. When I go back to WV I always feel glad not to live there. The vast majority of people there are poor and ignorant as hell and the prejudice is proud and in your face. That they would vote for the loser is no surprise. It is totally about dumbass redneck racism, Obama was right to not waste his time there.
You don't know me so your assessment of 'trash' is at best a generalization of me for where I was born. Your comment is really an indication of your childish loser's mentality using some made up coloquialism and failing to make any point other than trying to call me a name. But to put this in terms you can better understand, FUCK YOU STUPID ASSHOLE!!
Wow I figured you could only understand that part...
easy? yeah, it was a piece of cake. All you have to do is say something factual or intelligent and idiot trash like you get offended and start calling people names because otherwise you have no purpose in life. But you should try to get a life; I know its hard for you but maybe you can grow up if you really try...
America has become on line slogans of emotional apeal. Try looking at America with an open mind, good, bad anything's possible, and you might start seeing things a bit different. Don't cheer for your school just because you go to it. Seek for the truth and it will show you a whole new world. A lot of what we were taught was for a reason, America didn't spontanisly have this happen, it's been a slow progression. Our schools produce exactly what our gov. wants, if it didn't they'd change it.
I've always looked at America from an objective point of view. As an African-American I know the evils American is capable of. However, I've been overseas and I can honestly say that the American system is among the best in the world. I often hear liberals bash America, while embracing Chinese communism, Castro, and Chavez's socialist governemnt. In all of those places, those same liberals don't have the right to speak openly against those governments. The irony is very obvious.
Liberals are sociolist, and republicans are fascist. WE live in a duel monarchy. The rich give us two choice, more government or more government. And they convices all of us that we are free. Your right about that. Liberals are not against war, just war with Iraq.
If you have something intelligent to offer other than name calling and personal attacks I'd be glad to state my case, but if not please don't waste mine or anyone's time with these kind of comments. It's not productive, and it doesn't accomplish anything other than make yourself look bad. I probably thought just like you about this topic until I investigated it. The greatest enemy of knowledge isn't ignorance, it's the illusion of knowledge. Don't just think you know the truth, seek it.
I believe I have 1st amendment rights that you are trying to trample over. You are ignorant since you have no idea the context of this discussion that also had nothing to do with you. You also have nothing to contribute to but to further attack and inflame. You obviously a hypocrite and ignorant yourself. You should look at your numerous flaws before pointing at others and add something intelligent if you are going to diss others.
and millions of people today are slaves, what do you think china is to us? they work for pennies so we can have cheap products. We're slaves to the system because we do what we're told not what we want. This is your life, your here one time, why does somebody else have the right to tell you how to live your life if your not hurting anybody else. But we live in fear, give our rights away so others will take care of us, but that trust is awfully big, and takes a lot of faith in the system.
Stop thinking the south was wrong because of slavery, that's not the point I'm making. It's the federal government does not have power over freedom... If we are a land of the free that is. If we are a land of a preserved nation at all costs, then yeah lincoln was great.
Slaves needs to go at all levels, don't just think of slavery as whips and chains, it's control without objection. The south was not innocent by any means but neither was the north. And again you will not read this in text books, the north wrote the text books, do you think they are going to say, we enslaved the south to end slavery? They don't want you to realize your a slave. We have the 5th ammend. right? Try not take the 5th and not file taxes sometime, see how that works out? tyranny
always remember the winners write the history, What was it in 1984 "He who controls the present controls the past, and he who controls the past controls the future"
I do not understand your point. What the south did in trying to secede was a crime. In a democracy, the majority should rule in such matters as slavery and taxes. The southern elite knew that their economic system depended on slavery, and they did not like yankees dictating their state rights. Lincoln is considered one of the greatest presidents not because he was an abolitionist (which he wasn't), but because he managed to preserve the union despite overwheliming odds.
The nation back then wasn't free for millions of slaves, and women. And your point?
And if you have to ask why preserving the nation is such a huge deal, you are delusional.
So you believe that the confederacy was legit? By the laws of our forefathers, Lincoln was justified in preventing the South from seceding from union by the constitution written by our forefathers.
Are you from the south, because you sound the legions of Lincoln haters who live down there
And it's hard to understand. We've been on the winners side, but that's not always the right side, and politicians can spin anything. Preserving the nation was a justification to use force. So was WMD's, does that make it right? When you realize lincoln made you less free because he took away your right to decent, you'll see the tryanny. Freedom is more important to me than country. Your freedom is more important to me than country. If I protect your freedom I protect the country.
I don't understand when you say that Lincoln took away right to decent.
You do not understand that sedition is illegal. No matter how you look at it. You are going off about freedom, yet you seem to support the side that exploited the freedom of slaves to get rich off of cotton trade.
Of course preservation of union was justification to use force. Where did you go to schooll? I presume that it is somewhere in the South?
How am I attacking you personally? I haven't insulted you in any way or form. I was just wondering where did you receive your education to the casa belli of the Civil War. I am a history major in college, and is well aware of the anti-lincoln sentiments in the south.
Try and not look at it as a "south" issue. What if something you love became illegal would that make it ok if they said it was for the preservation of the union? Or taxed you to poverty for the good of the country? Fight for others freedom and you'll have yours. And the south was far from innocent in this case, by tyranny to stop tyranny is not as nobel as we were taught.
It's funny that you say that tyranny to stop tyranny isn't noble, but how else could you stop it.
The principles of the declaration of revolution and later the constitution was not being upheld, and Lincoln made it so that the Revolution finally was complete. I'm not following you. So you'd rather LIncoln sit back while half of the union seceded illegaly?
If lincoln would have gone after slavery, had diplomacy with the south's grievances, and helped the south modernize so the use of slaves was not needed, then yes I'd say he was one of the best, but arresting people without a trial, burning down cities full of innocent people, and controlling others thru unfair taxation with no regard to their rights as a human is not noble.
That is exactly what Lincoln tried to do. But the South chose war (fort sumter).
The US had to forcefully liberate Europe from the Nazis, by your standards they weren't noble because they had to fight to free the people from Nazis tyranny.
I respect your opinion, but the only way to fight tyranny is by force. You see what happened when Prime Minister Chamberlain tried to appease Nazis. They laughed in his face and then proceeded to conquer every country in sight.
Your right about the Nazi's, it was a tyranny, but the germans were conviced it was for the good of the "father land" There's a lot more to the story that what meets the eye too, again, winner's tell the history. I'm in no way defending Hitler, but you repress people enough like the versie (sp) treaty did, and somebody's going to fight back, that's human nature. America financed hitler too, research prescott bush, gw grandpa, he gave a huge loan. Standard oil, rockerfeller gave them oil.
The Nazis campaign had nothing to do with Versailles treaty. Hitler used that as an excuse to gain power and blame all the ills of his country on the jews.
It's true that the winners tell history,but that is no way anyone can spin what the Nazis stood for.The Nazis in no way represented the German people,these criminals seized power unlawfully and used their power to pursue a racist,totalitarian agenda. If they really were for German people, they wouldn't have jailed many of their own citizens.
research it a bit, prescott bush, the federal reserve, standard oil, league of nations. There is a lot more to every story. Hitler was horrible, I'm never going to defend it, but he got millions of people to fight for him, and die for him, so people had a hatred or a belief of something that wasn't true. And I never blame the people, only leadership. It's not the germans fault, they were brainwashed into believeing it. People are sheep, and we keep each other in line thru fear.
And your right tyranny by force, but we didn't invade the south for slavery, I would be with you if that were the case. We went so the north could continue taxing the south.
The federal government has the right to tax all of it's territory, and while that might not be as noble as fighting for slavery, it was perfectly legal.I disagree that slavery wasn't an issue for Northern invasion.First off the south iniated the war by attacking fort sumter,and secondly,since the declaratin of independence,the north and south has compromised on divisive issue of slavery.See the Missouri compromise.The issue of states rights had to do with the states rights to choose slavery.
I'd agree that America is the best system, but that's like voiting for pesident, we vote for the lesser of the two evil, but we're still voting for evil. Rascism is used to divide all of us. As long as we are fighting amongst ourselves we don't see who's really holding us down. The drug wars have done more harm to African American's than any good Lincoln every did. 14% of drug users are black but 65% of drug convictions are black, that's fucked up.
good point. I look at how many years and how many lives were shed for America to get to where it is at now. Take Iraq for instance, bush expected to implement an American style democracy in the middle east, and to have it flourishing within months. It took a revolution, a civil war, women rights, civil rights, world wars, and a depression for the US to "get it right".
And this country is still fucked up to a certain degree. Minorities and women are still oppressed to a certain degree.
We had the revolutionary war because we didn't want England controlling and taxing us, they could have said it was slavery since the north had slaves at the time, or to keep the empire togather, and what side would be on then?
and I thought exactly like you 6 months ago, so I understand your points, but get out of "for the sake of the union" if the union stops standing for what it was created, is that a union you want to belong to? I disagree with the south and their slavery, and if slavery was the true reason I'd be on your side, but it was taxes and control of the south. Think of slavery as WMD's it was the public feel good reason to have war, but not the real reason.
Well Educated views know more than you. Lincoln was a horrible president, he was a tyrant and a terrorist. His reason to invade the south was about as much about slavery as our invasion of Iraq was about WMD's. He wasn't going to lose power to tax south that's why he fought it and anyone who spoke out against it he arrested. Don't read the text books from school, those we're written by the winners, and are full of lies. They don't want you to know the real reason but a feel good reason.
Really? Lincoln was a terrorist? Give me a break. No the Civil war was not originally about slavery. It was about preserving the Union. Do you not feel that was a worthy cause? You realize the US would have most likely broken up into four or five different nations right? Also, whether or not abolishing slavery was originally one of Lincoln's goals with the war is something that is still very much debated. If it was he couldn't say so in the beginning because he would have lost the border states.
So what if they succeed? Don't they have the right to succeed if the north eilites are enslaving all of the south with high taxes? Now I'm not for succession nor am I from the south but people have a right to stand up to tyranny. If Bush took all your states freedoms away wouldn't you want to succeed? What's popular isn't always right and whats right isn't always popular. Every other country stopped slavery by buying them, but that's noble and expensive.
Ask yourself why were they trying to leave? It's not about slavery because that came after they wanted to leave, so find out that reason and you'll find the truth. I'm still investigating and I do agree, it's a debate and it depends on who you listen to, kinda hard to find an eye witness ;) Shit I'll admit I could be wrong, but I've learned that leaders become leaders for power and money, and Lincoln took a lot of both. He suspended Habeas Corpus and threw dissenters into jail for sure too.
Also they just released personal writings of Lincolns from some collage, can't remember who, that Lincoln stated that if abolishing slavery helped to justify war with the south he was fine with that. Doesn't sound to high on his list. He also burned down several cities in the south to the ground. I call that terrorism but thats today's standard and now days telling the truth is the new terrorism if hr1955 gets thru. Truth has become treason in our nation of lies.
LOL at Lincoln being a horrible president. Who do you think are great presidents? Lincoln did what he had to do to preserve the union, and whether you agree or disagree with his methods or motivations, you cannot deny that he saved the United States. Rednecks in the South hate Lincoln only because he broke the back of slavery and modernized the South. this just shows that one man's hero is another's war criminal.
Of course anyone who supported the South was areested, Sedition is illegal.
First I'm far from the south, but I don't see where keeping the union togather when people want to leave is freedom, that's tyranny in my book. I'm not saying ending slavery was a nobel effort, but they could have been bought without the killing of innocent people. And who cares if the south isn't modernized, that's there choice isn't it? Your not San Franciscoized, or redneckized. How would you feel if they had power to forced you to be, is that freedom?
do you have an argument, or just a series of stereotypes? You're just a leftist version of a neo-con bitching about "Boston Liberals"...not everybody who disagrees with you is in the klan, or beats their wives; your partyline is as tired as the right-wing idiots who think if you're against the war, you must be "for the terrorists".
A college education meant something years ago, but these days, it's basically 4 years of extended adolesence with your parents paying the bill. It seems like you only regard somebosy as 'uneducated' when they don't vote your way. If white high-school dropouts suddenly started voting for leftists, you'd be heaping praise on them.
TV rules are more strict than radio rules. Cenk won't be able to do alot of the fun stuff on TV, and his manner of talking is really a venting of left sentiments.
His show style would turn off swing voters because he doesn't bother being tactful or trying to draw skeptical listeners in. If your views were already agreeing with his, you'll feel great. Otherwise, he has a hard time.
That's exactly how I feel about it. I mean they told the one woman that he wasn't a Muslim and she said she didn't believe it. I mean WTF..sometimes you can't get through to some people.
Sorry, those WV racists don't have a "PhD" in life. They flunked the high school of life. Matthews also tried to make playing pool an elitist activity because the pool tables are expensive! LOL! Like a bowling alley isn't expensive. Matthews is a propaganda machine.
Why do Smart Wealthy African Americans have to "dumb down" to West Virginia? There are some really smart people there in WV. Why not host a rally with the smart ones. Not the dumb ones.
People don't ask Obama to "dumb down" to dumb-ass inner city folks?
the solution to the inherent need in a elected Representative Democracy to pander to the backwards-thinking voting block is to eliminate ignorance through education, which Obama is dedicated to doing. Of course, in order to get into office to do that, he has to at least make some overtures in that direction. But stupidity dies hard.
WHats the deal with "hard working people" ?? What the fuck do they do, toil like oxes??
Ok so I have a white collared desk job, so I am not hard working ? I hate it when politicians spew this bullshit and the media buys into it. As if the blue collared people are volunteering to work more for less money. WHo doesn't want to be the CEO of a fortune 500 company. But everyone ends up being what they deserve. So stop fucking appeasing the blue collered to get theor votes and then forget them.
Thank you Cenk. I am so tired of this "real American" crap that the pundits are pushing. The WV's are as ignorant as they come. 6 out of 1 are on WELFARE and still have the mentality of the 50s. Their poor and stupid. Not REAL AMERICANS
And what does that say about you? No wonder the anagram to your screename is "To The Moron"
According to the number of thumbs up my comment has gotten I'd think a lot of other people are sick of the totally pointless *first* comments.
Plus, idiots who comment "first" should freakin expect someone to make fun of them. For some of them it's probably their entire MO for doing it in the first place.
Plus, I've seen the TYT crew do it themselves. You gonna go after Cenk and the TYT crew?

Some conservatives wear ignorance like a badge of honor, I suspect because they can't defend their positions. Hell, half the time they can't even tell you their positions. I am so sick of the pandering to these stupid people, that's done not only by politicians but by the media. This has been going on since Ronald Reagan.

He's telling the truth. The Republicans figured out a long time ago that the working class is mostly... well, stupid. And I know what I'm talking about, because I'm from a blue collar family, and grew up on a Mill Hill. All you have to do is say you love Baby Jeebus, and hate faggots, baby killers, and niggers, and you've got the blue collar vote. And it's absolutely disgusting, because what these people don't realize is that the people they're voting for think they're the scum of the earth.

@Zubirrex That's why Technocracy is better then Democracy. Technocracy is a form of government where the ruling power is the skilled or smart. In a technocracy, you'd pretty much need a bachelor's degree to vote, rather then needing to be 18. Of course, the solution to the obvious problem (money) is to make undergraduate education free. I'm not saying certain people shouldn't be allowed to vote, I'm just saying they should get an education first, so that they aren't idiots.

I do not understand your point. What the south did in trying to secede was a crime. In a democracy, the majority should rule in such matters as slavery and taxes. The southern elite knew that their economic system depended on slavery, and they did not like yankees dictating their state rights. Lincoln is considered one of the greatest presidents not because he was an abolitionist (which he wasn't), but because he managed to preserve the union despite overwheliming odds.

Are you from the south, because you sound the legions of Lincoln haters who live down there
mrbronze013 3 years ago
And it's hard to understand. We've been on the winners side, but that's not always the right side, and politicians can spin anything. Preserving the nation was a justification to use force. So was WMD's, does that make it right? When you realize lincoln made you less free because he took away your right to decent, you'll see the tryanny. Freedom is more important to me than country. Your freedom is more important to me than country. If I protect your freedom I protect the country.

Try and not look at it as a "south" issue. What if something you love became illegal would that make it ok if they said it was for the preservation of the union? Or taxed you to poverty for the good of the country? Fight for others freedom and you'll have yours. And the south was far from innocent in this case, by tyranny to stop tyranny is not as nobel as we were taught.
yostevoak1 3 years ago
Sedition has always been illegal.
It's funny that you say that tyranny to stop tyranny isn't noble, but how else could you stop it.
The principles of the declaration of revolution and later the constitution was not being upheld, and Lincoln made it so that the Revolution finally was complete. I'm not following you. So you'd rather LIncoln sit back while half of the union seceded illegaly?
Please answer this for me.
mrbronze013 3 years ago
If lincoln would have gone after slavery, had diplomacy with the south's grievances, and helped the south modernize so the use of slaves was not needed, then yes I'd say he was one of the best, but arresting people without a trial, burning down cities full of innocent people, and controlling others thru unfair taxation with no regard to their rights as a human is not noble.
yostevoak1 3 years ago
That is exactly what Lincoln tried to do. But the South chose war (fort sumter).
The US had to forcefully liberate Europe from the Nazis, by your standards they weren't noble because they had to fight to free the people from Nazis tyranny.
I respect your opinion, but the only way to fight tyranny is by force. You see what happened when Prime Minister Chamberlain tried to appease Nazis. They laughed in his face and then proceeded to conquer every country in sight.
mrbronze013 3 years ago
Your right about the Nazi's, it was a tyranny, but the germans were conviced it was for the good of the "father land" There's a lot more to the story that what meets the eye too, again, winner's tell the history. I'm in no way defending Hitler, but you repress people enough like the versie (sp) treaty did, and somebody's going to fight back, that's human nature. America financed hitler too, research prescott bush, gw grandpa, he gave a huge loan. Standard oil, rockerfeller gave them oil.
yostevoak1 3 years ago
The Nazis campaign had nothing to do with Versailles treaty. Hitler used that as an excuse to gain power and blame all the ills of his country on the jews.
It's true that the winners tell history,but that is no way anyone can spin what the Nazis stood for.The Nazis in no way represented the German people,these criminals seized power unlawfully and used their power to pursue a racist,totalitarian agenda. If they really were for German people, they wouldn't have jailed many of their own citizens.
mrbronze013 3 years ago
research it a bit, prescott bush, the federal reserve, standard oil, league of nations. There is a lot more to every story. Hitler was horrible, I'm never going to defend it, but he got millions of people to fight for him, and die for him, so people had a hatred or a belief of something that wasn't true. And I never blame the people, only leadership. It's not the germans fault, they were brainwashed into believeing it. People are sheep, and we keep each other in line thru fear.

And your right tyranny by force, but we didn't invade the south for slavery, I would be with you if that were the case. We went so the north could continue taxing the south.

The federal government has the right to tax all of it's territory, and while that might not be as noble as fighting for slavery, it was perfectly legal.I disagree that slavery wasn't an issue for Northern invasion.First off the south iniated the war by attacking fort sumter,and secondly,since the declaratin of independence,the north and south has compromised on divisive issue of slavery.See the Missouri compromise.The issue of states rights had to do with the states rights to choose slavery.
mrbronze013 3 years ago
I'd agree that America is the best system, but that's like voiting for pesident, we vote for the lesser of the two evil, but we're still voting for evil. Rascism is used to divide all of us.

good point. I look at how many years and how many lives were shed for America to get to where it is at now. Take Iraq for instance, bush expected to implement an American style democracy in the middle east, and to have it flourishing within months. It took a revolution, a civil war, women rights, civil rights, world wars, and a depression for the US to "get it right".
And this country is still fucked up to a certain degree. Minorities and women are still oppressed to a certain degree.

Think of slavery as WMD's it was the public feel good reason to have war, but not the real reason.

Well Educated views know more than you. Lincoln was a horrible president, he was a tyrant and a terrorist. His reason to invade the south was about as much about slavery as our invasion of Iraq was about WMD's. He wasn't going to lose power to tax south that's why he fought it and anyone who spoke out against it he arrested. Don't read the text books from school, those we're written by the winners, and are full of lies. They don't want you to know the real reason but a feel good reason.

Really? Lincoln was a terrorist? Give me a break. No the Civil war was not originally about slavery. It was about preserving the Union. Do you not feel that was a worthy cause? You realize the US would have most likely broken up into four or five different nations right? Also, whether or not abolishing slavery was originally one of Lincoln's goals with the war is something that is still very much debated. If it was he couldn't say so in the beginning because he would have lost the border states.

Ask yourself why were they trying to leave? It's not about slavery because that came after they wanted to leave, so find out that reason and you'll find the truth. I'm still investigating and I do agree, it's a debate and it depends on who you listen to, kinda hard to find an eye witness ;) Shit I'll admit I could be wrong, but I've learned that leaders become leaders for power and money, and Lincoln took a lot of both. He suspended Habeas Corpus and threw dissenters into jail for sure too.

Also they just released personal writings of Lincolns from some collage, can't remember who, that Lincoln stated that if abolishing slavery helped to justify war with the south he was fine with that. Doesn't sound to high on his list. He also burned down several cities in the south to the ground. I call that terrorism but thats today's standard and now days telling the truth is the new terrorism if hr1955 gets thru. Truth has become treason in our nation of lies.

LOL at Lincoln being a horrible president. Who do you think are great presidents? Lincoln did what he had to do to preserve the union, and whether you agree or disagree with his methods or motivations, you cannot deny that he saved the United States. Rednecks in the South hate Lincoln only because he broke the back of slavery and modernized the South. this just shows that one man's hero is another's war criminal.
Of course anyone who supported the South was areested, Sedition is illegal.

First I'm far from the south, but I don't see where keeping the union togather when people want to leave is freedom, that's tyranny in my book. I'm not saying ending slavery was a nobel effort, but they could have been bought without the killing of innocent people. And who cares if the south isn't modernized, that's there choice isn't it? Your not San Franciscoized, or redneckized. How would you feel if they had power to forced you to be, is that freedom?

yikes on saying Abraham Lincoln was a great president (please research)
but bs like bowling and downing beers is not what ppl should vote on
the media is continues masking reality w/ another stereotype that every1 in west virginia is an uneducated hick
I've seen the videos of a few ppl in west virginia completely talkin out of their asses about obama being black (I don't but it)
can we just unite as Americans and vote on the real issues (health care, the war, the economy, crime, etc)?

do you have an argument, or just a series of stereotypes? You're just a leftist version of a neo-con bitching about "Boston Liberals"...not everybody who disagrees with you is in the klan, or beats their wives; your partyline is as tired as the right-wing idiots who think if you're against the war, you must be "for the terrorists".

A college education meant something years ago, but these days, it's basically 4 years of extended adolesence with your parents paying the bill. It seems like you only regard somebosy as 'uneducated' when they don't vote your way. If white high-school dropouts suddenly started voting for leftists, you'd be heaping praise on them.

TV rules are more strict than radio rules. Cenk won't be able to do alot of the fun stuff on TV, and his manner of talking is really a venting of left sentiments.
His show style would turn off swing voters because he doesn't bother being tactful or trying to draw skeptical listeners in. If your views were already agreeing with his, you'll feel great. Otherwise, he has a hard time.

Sorry, those WV racists don't have a "PhD" in life. They flunked the high school of life. Matthews also tried to make playing pool an elitist activity because the pool tables are expensive! LOL! Like a bowling alley isn't expensive. Matthews is a propaganda machine.

Why do Smart Wealthy African Americans have to "dumb down" to West Virginia? There are some really smart people there in WV. Why not host a rally with the smart ones. Not the dumb ones.
People don't ask Obama to "dumb down" to dumb-ass inner city folks?

the solution to the inherent need in a elected Representative Democracy to pander to the backwards-thinking voting block is to eliminate ignorance through education, which Obama is dedicated to doing. Of course, in order to get into office to do that, he has to at least make some overtures in that direction. But stupidity dies hard.
Peace.

WHats the deal with "hard working people" ?? What the fuck do they do, toil like oxes??
Ok so I have a white collared desk job, so I am not hard working ? I hate it when politicians spew this bullshit and the media buys into it. As if the blue collared people are volunteering to work more for less money. WHo doesn't want to be the CEO of a fortune 500 company. But everyone ends up being what they deserve. So stop fucking appeasing the blue collered to get theor votes and then forget them.

Thank you Cenk. I am so tired of this "real American" crap that the pundits are pushing. The WV's are as ignorant as they come. 6 out of 1 are on WELFARE and still have the mentality of the 50s. Their poor and stupid. Not REAL AMERICANS

I think you mean: "1 out of 6 are on WELFARE ... They're poor and stupid."
It's best to phrase and spell your insults of the intelligence of others correctly.
Also, of course they're real Americans, as are you and I.

Wow, did you get some TYT money or something for being first? Were they holding some kind of lottery for the 1st one to comment?
Ohhhh, I get it...you're one of those dumbasses from West Virginia that Cenk was talkin bout.

And what does that say about you? No wonder the anagram to your screename is "To The Moron"
According to the number of thumbs up my comment has gotten I'd think a lot of other people are sick of the totally pointless *first* comments.
Plus, idiots who comment "first" should freakin expect someone to make fun of them. For some of them it's probably their entire MO for doing it in the first place.
Plus, I've seen the TYT crew do it themselves. You gonna go after Cenk and the TYT crew?
