@AesopsRetreat Check this out on youtube A.U feat Bill Maher

[AesopsRetreat]

Bill Maher would know this first hand since he denies he's racist all the time, yet he's on the Left and supports blacks being paid to stay in the ghetto's and out of the white mans world. Yeah, we know who the Racists are..

all those statistics just say things about blacks and how they treat themselves

@whyamimrpink78 - Obama much more likely got in because he previously attended Occidental and Columbia and worked for a big firm.

I'm of two minds on AA. On the one hand it is discriminatory on the basis of race and/or gender. On the other hand there is nothing else in place to enforce anti-discriminatory laws that are in place. Even so, the majority of AA hires are actually white women. Many of the AA hires who aren't white women are Hispanics. Blacks are less than 10% of the hires.

@whyamimrpink78 - "most people are politically connected"

Obama was not really connected when he was at Harvard, he was still largely a nobody at that point. Connections won't get you a GPA over 3.7. Bush had many more political connections in college than Obama yet he was still a C-average student.

"lack knowledge of the common man" Obama was a common man. He wasn't born with a silver spoon by a longshot. He was the son of a single mother right out of teenagehood.

@whyamimrpink78 - "and most democrats were against"

Most of the Democrats against were the Dixiecrats. In the next Congressional election the Northern Dems made the majority, which is a large reason why LBJ's Civil Rights Bill got passed. However, the Northern Dems has proposed other Civil Rights Bills before Eisenhower (all the way back to the FDR Administration). President Truman, another liberal Dem, was the President who de-segregated the military.

@whyamimrpink78 - Eventually the conservative wing of the Republican party allied with the conservative wing of the Democratic party to make the anti-Civil Rights/pro-Jim Crow "Conservative Coalition". The liberal wing of the Democratic party (personified by William Jennings Bryan in the late 1800s and early 1900s) eventually took over the Northern Democrats while the conservative wing took over the Southern Democrats ("Dixiecrats"). The liberal wing dominated the party after the election of FDR

@whyamimrpink78 - The Republicans, from the 1850s to the turn of the century, were the progressive party that supported federalism, social reform, trust-busting, social programs, industrialization and central banking. Abe Lincoln's "Reconstruction" was basically a 19th century version of the "New Deal". From the 1890s to the 1920s the Republicans slowly became the business party and eventually the conservative party by the 1930s and 40s as the conservative wing took over.

@whyamimrpink78 - I wouldn't say that. The majority of minorities (lol @ the language) of tend to vote Democrat in national elections. That doesn't mean all or most minorities are doctrinaire liberals or lefties but most tend to vote Democrat.

"dems. have always been more racist"

Democrat =/= Liberal

From their inception in the 1800s up until the 1930s the Democrats were the states' rights conservative party against federalism, social programs, business regulations and central banking.

@A86 I know AA are required to meet minimum qualifications, but it isn't fair when companies are force to consider condidates because of their race or sex. That creates problems. A company can hire all white people if they are the best candidates or all black people. We don't need AA laws. Most companies will hire the best candidates. No one should get special treatment because of their race or color.
