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 whiteAmerica ? 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. This needs to be passed around because,
this is a message everyone needs to hear!!!

I think the government has kept all the minorities in a lower class by
giving them everything without earning it. The non-English speaking
are kept from bettering themselves by not having to learn English
because every where they go signs and all forms, etc. they have to
read are in Spanish. The Blacks are given extra points on job
application exam tests. Lots of prejudice present in the allowing
blacks an unfair advantage on college applications decisions. The govt
needs to do some revamping and dicontinue the revserse discrimination.
We need the brightest to go to the best colleges, not the onse whoare
most talented in catching a football.

Thsi nation did not become the greatest in the world by favoring those
with the lest to offer in the field of nation building.
