I see Heisman was at the Donald Trump rally today. Great question!
The "at least he kept us safe" sound bite had better not be his catch-phraseWhen this is all said and done, Im predicitng Bush v. Biden, with the next POTUS being Bush III.
The "at least he kept us safe" is going to really play in his favor with all of the threats in the world today.
Im thinking by election time, national defense will be more important than immigration, debt or abortion.
Actually it kinda does, because of the fortune that has been acquired through old money has traces rooted all the way back to the country's founding which has been has 100% white. Oprah is the only US billionaire and there is only 7 in the world. I am trying to give an explanation as to why 150 years later won't be forgotten. Not until more blacks break into 1% and gain a footing. The current set-up won't allow for them to advance because we have a gov't that is pushing to keep them dependent on gov't.
The second part is true. Every race has an equal opportunity, but only one has a true chance to make to the upper 1%. That's stats prove that.

I think we're saying the same thing. African Americans are poorly represented in the billionaire class because, as a race, they havent been afforded the equal opportunity to earn money until fairly recently (in the context of history). So they havent been able to generation legacy wealth with a small, small exception.
Whereas wealthy anglos have been inheriting wealth, and building on that for generations.
Ding ding ding. Inheritance wealth and housing discrimination are the two biggest factors, IMO. From there you get the drastic differences in education, criminal justice, employment, and median wealth.
Many parts of Appalachia suffer from the same vicious socioeconomic circle as urban black communities, actually. Lack of opportunity -> lack of money -> bad schools -> bad job resumes -> lack of mobility. And the next generation picks up where the previous one left off. The difference is that when you're spread out over thousands of square miles of mountainous terrain, you don't have to deal with beat cops driving down your street looking for a reason to frisk you.
We've been waiting on Obama to amp up the fight against ISIS and lay out a strategy.....today he names a gay guy to lead the Army. That's a whole shitton of trolling.
Maybe they wouldn't be looking for a reason to frisk you if they statistically, didn't commit the most amount of crime per capita. I pointed out that 9 of the top 10 cities worst for crime are Democratic ran cities where the majority of the population is black.
I have the same advice for people in the ghettos and in Appalachia, if you do not like your situation...CHANGE IT! Don't fall into the same traps as the others around you. Work hard, study hard, do the opposite of those who could not succeed and better themselves. No one is going to hand you anything. If you want a better life, then go make it happen.
And nobody is arguing that such pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps stories are possible even in the worst situations.I left a small town in eastern Kentucky at age 18 in the 1960s. No jobs at all there (still aren't). I hitchhiked out of there to a city 400 miles away with probably $20 in my pocket. Found a decent job in less than a week and have been self-sufficient ever since. No help from parents (they couldn't help) or anyone else.
There was nothing special about me. I just recognized that no decent job was ever going to come to me. I was going to have to go to where that decent job was.
Just as those decent jobs are never coming to the hills, neither are they ever going to come in to the ghettos. Moan and grown all you wish at the situation. It's never going to change. We can only change ourselves.
*Oh yeah, even though the "getting away" story is true, I forgot to mention that I walked 5 miles barefoot to school, uphill both ways.

The issue is that WhitesRule's race-based stats don't reflect the relative difficulty different socioeconomic groups have in obtaining quality educations, jobs, housing, etc.

For the Liberals in here, is this kid a racist to?

so you found the Muslim Rush Limbaugh...want a cookie? I love how you and the guy who asked Trump that question use a few bad Muslims to judge the entire population. But carry on with your white jihad. I'm sure I'll read about you in the news one day.While everyone cries because of the "clock kid", this guy says Muslim Migrants Should Breed With Europeans to conquer their countries. Basically, rape, since that's what they usually do. Just ask Sweden.

I'm curious what many of you in the "oh, it's because they're poor and not provided the same opportunities" group think of Appalachia? That is one of the poorest areas in the country yet they rank below the national average in violent crime. Why is that?
What is more sad is how you tell him to read the Bible and the Koran (Quran), it is obvious you have not. There are a lot of differences, most glaringly, how in the Bible Jesus comes to Earth to correct mans mistakes in the old testament and teaches love and compassion where the Koran goes from a compassionate loving book to more aggressive and more hateful towards anyone who does not convert. Furthermore, Christians largely denounce anyone or organization (Church, Westmore Baptist) that teaches and practices hatred. Muslims not so much. A large portion of them can be seen dancing in the streets celebrating acts of terrorism towards us and other western cultures or not coming forward to denounce it at all. Their silence speaks volumes. Get out of the hazy bubble you live in and quit watching and listening to CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, ETC....your obvious lemming rhetoric shows you have no view at all of the real world. LEARN SOMETHING. Your welcome.The bible is very clear too. Go read the old testament. And I doubt you ever read the Quoran either. Vast majority are peaceful people. When you have billions of Muslims you're gonna have a lot of bad seeds in areas like the Middle East. Muhammad Ali is a Muslim and there are much more like him than like ISIS. Get out of your bubble and out from under the sheets. It's sad that all this talk about religious freedom only applies to one religion in your world.
Wow, how stupid is this post. You really are a clown and a homer. That attack happened 9 months into his presidency. It took over 2 years to plan and they were in the US planning it. That attack was much more Clintons fault than Bush. I know you are not really this stupid so, you are being disingenuous and misleading showing your obvious far left nut job agenda. Centrist my foot.Yea he kept us safe except for the worst attack on US soil since Pearl Harbor which he conveniently forgets.
When will Jeb! realize that every time he mentions his brother, his poll numbers go down another percent or two?
In terms of inheriting wealth, I'd say the offspring of black pro athletes, musicians and actors have been provided a huge step up over the majority in wealth.
And on a related note, on Forbes list of richest people, 10 of the top 50 are Jewish. That is remarkable for such a small group. But I don't believe many of them "inherited" wealth (that's an excuse for a lot of people). You have guys on that list who founded Google, Facebook, Dell computers, founder of Rockstar Energy drink, etc.
There's just a ton of excuses always when it comes to why certain groups fail more-so than others.
the national chairman for Teens for Ted (Cruz)?![]()
Hawaii. He's rich man.
At 17 he ran his dad's Beemer into a coconut tree.
100 years from now the story will be, his father asked him about it and BO said "I cannot tell a lie, yes, the car ran into the tree".

I like how the Army of God website celebrates Paul Jennings Hill as an American Hero.
Please enlighten us to your "unbias" sources. Imo you have to take a bit from each side and try formulate some truth.
A few posts back was trying to make a correlation between Muslims and Sweden rape statistics.
This article came from the Gatestone Institute http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/
a anti-muslim, pro-isreali think tank which is headed by Nina Rosenwald. She is also VP of the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs which has been pushing for US military action to degrade Iran's nuclear program.
Klara Selin, a sociologist at the National Council for Crime Prevention in Stockholm. She says you cannot compare countries' records, because police procedures and legal definitions of rape vary widely.
"In Sweden there has been this ambition explicitly to record every case of sexual violence separately, to make it visible in the statistics," she says.
"So, for instance, when a woman comes to the police and she says my husband or my fiance raped me almost every day during the last year, the police have to record each of these events, which might be more than 300 events. In many other countries it would just be one record - one victim, one type of crime, one record."
