BUCHANAN  TO  OBAMA
     By  Patrick J.  Buchanan

Barack says we need to have a  conversation about race in America . Fair enough. But this time, it has  to be a two-way conversation. White America needs to be heard from,  not just lectured to... This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its  convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are  these:

First, America has  been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that  600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a  community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and  reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever  known. Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an  American.

Second, no  people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans.  Untold trillions have been spent since the ' 60s on welfare, food  stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans,  legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs  designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream.  Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination  against white folks -- with affirmative action, contract set-asides and  quotas -- to advance black applicants over white applicants. Churches,  foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have  donated their time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education,  day care, retirement and nursing homes for  blacks.

We hear the  grievances. Where is the gratitude???

Barack talks  about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let him go to Altoona ?   And Johnstown , and ask the white kids in Catholic schools how many  were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships  for 'deserving' white kids.? Is white America really responsible for the  fact that the crime and incarceration rates for African-Americans are  seven times those of white America ?  Is it really white America 's  fault that illegitimacy in the African-American community has hit 70  percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has  reached 50 percent?

Is that the  fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the black community itself?

As for racism,  its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially  interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals  choose white victims 45 percent of the time?

Is Barack aware  that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse,  that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first  three years of this decade as the reverse?

We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena . And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.

Sorry, Barack,  some of us have heard it all before, about 40 years and 40 trillion tax dollars ago.

We are a Christian Nation even if Mr. Obama says we are not.

Obama is a communist just like his mother, father, and mentor were.

THERE WILL NEVER BE A DISCUSSION ABOUT RACE IN THIS COUNTRY AS LONG AS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS AROUND.BECAUSE ANY "DISCUSSION" BEGINDS AND ENDS WITH BLACKS CALLING WHITES RACISTS.

That'll be the day. 

I think Billy hit the nail right on the head.

yea i know,  martin luther king would be ashamed of the majority of the black society today, mlk wanted equal treatment, not special treatment,

[HDPhysiques]

There are very very few things Buchanan is wrong about.  I disagree with some of his fiscal/tax policies & strategies, but with most everything else, the guy is spot on.

Answer: BOTH!!!

I've often said that anything bad for white America is TWICE as bad for black America. That is one of the reasons I'm a conservative. It's screwball liberal policies (political and social) that have helped cripple African-Americans, more than any other outside entity. Scripture says that he who would not work, neither should he eat. That's true, no matter what color you are.

The destruction of the family in white America has supremely manifested itself within black America. As last check, 40% of all white kids were born out-of-wedlock; that number is 70% among black kids.

The absentee father is a sickness within white America; it is near bubonic-plague levels in black America.

And, at the end of the day, the materialism that has hamstrung white America renders black America in a wheelchair.

Too many African-Americans are playing the "damsel-in-distress" role, waiting for some Democratic politician(s) to give entitlements, declare opportunities, multiply loaves and fishes, cleanse lepers, turn water into wine, etc.

Hence, it's part of the reason we have Obama as president.

The way I see, the white man may owe the black man. But, his payment plan SUCKS. So, I'd rather get the opportunity to obtain 100 acres and a Corvette, than wait for the government (especially one run by Democrats) to give me 40 acres and a mule.

This is the cause of so much.

^ agreed, children have a chance to learn so much more if both parents are around, not just learn book smart stuff, but about building function relationships weather it be a friendly relationship, or romantic, work or whatever, learn about loving and being loved and a part of something. I hear so many kids say they joined a gang cause it made them feel that they were a part of something, it really sucks that they dont have a mom and dad  together to get that feeling from.
