If you don’t understand what Reverand Wright is saying, or why he is saying it
If you don’t understand hate when you hear it you must be totally stupid. Anyone that preaches hatred of their country doesn’t deserve to live in it.

If you don’t understand what Reverand Wright is saying, or why he is saying it, then you must be white or uneducated or have a political agenda that really does not have compassion for anyone that is not white or wealthy.
“Truth” my ass! This is with a doubt one of the most ignorant statements posted here in months… if not years.
Compassion isn’t race-based… any more than respect, intelligence, talent, or any other human feeling or attribute.
On the contrary, it is mental and moral pygmies like you that perpetuate the racial animosities and bigotry that do remain in our society. Your smarmy insinuation and self-righteous blather are exactly what stands in the way of that so-called “conversation on race” that Barack Obama keeps yammering about. You and Jeremiah Wright.

the realistic dangers of the black experience
Yes indeed. I have quite a few middle class friends that do not fit this mold, but they account for about 10% of the negro population in the USA. Likewise, I avoid what one might call lower class people who tend to gravitate to the lowest common denominator. The times I have encountered these people, they gave some warnings far enough in advance that trouble was on the way and I left the scene.

America’s forefathers were hippocrites to say the least. On the one hand, they wrote some of the most beautiful words mankind has ever produced. Thomas Jefferson for one was a brilliant man who spoke of the power of humans, love, etc. WHILE OWNING SLAVES! America is founded on injustice and evil, despite the good that may lie in individual white hearts. “Give me liberty or give me death!” (Patrick Henry) - How beautiful and profound...if coming from a white man. When an African American who suffered great inhumanity at the hands of white America proclaims that same stance, we are seen as evil. Those forefathers were smart - smart enough to know that they must preserve that racist legacy they created by all means to ensure that such a legacy would last for centuries to come. To do this, they established institutions such as school to indoctrinate the minds of both white and blacks to beleive that all that is white is right - while instilling a great disdain for ANYTHING that is different. EXAMPLE: The hippocracy in the Catholic church with regard to widespread abuse and molestation of children is overlooked while an African American preacher who merely “calls it like it is” should be banned and scritinized forever. All of you are mis-educated. In fact, you all have been “schooled”, not educated. You have been taught to believe and think what your forefathers set forth in an effort to maintain your own racist, elitist position in the world (at least in your own eyes). US racists practices and policies have destroyed himanity both at home and abroad. Anyone white man reading this - I challenge you to read Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed or Carter G. Woodson’s Miseducation of the Negro. You all have been bamboozled! Unfortunately, your minds are incapable of conceiving the truth within these mentioned texts or the truth that is in front of you everyday. To believe otherwise would negate your perception of reality and the world. Again, the forefathers of this country were geniuses, evil geniuses. Look at the spell they still have on you today. I feel sorry for all of your ignorant, uninformed words that have been masked as actual thinking. I pray for you and this country.
