the new and improved obama thread

i think i'm competent to say what i implied. it wasn't that he was racist, it's that he has terrible policy plans. and yet you say you've read books about black americans.read the book i linked you to, or even read the reviews of it. use your fucking google. i did loads of homework for you, now you do some. i think it is in fact that we have enacted the wrong policies or failed to enforce them. i think by "hollywood" you mean white people. what does that have to do with failing to fully fund black majority urban schools? you mean invent strawmen and argue with yourself. they're just lazy, culturally. i see. also, why don't you demonstrate your claim. actually, i'd wager it's the concentration on actual, factual subject matter instead of fantasies and selfesteem. so the only reason there are fewer black female executives than white female executives is because they're culturally incompetent and culturally predestined to be baby-squirting welfare queens? if you'd read that book i linked, you'd know that it contains actual demonstrable proof of industry standards to keep blacks out of white neighborhoods to reduce the perception of the decline of the neighborhoods regardless of the income of the black people in question.hell. just do a google search on 'real estate residential segregation'.Amazon.com
another book.

scholarly articleseriously. do some work. unbelievable. no wonder you have no idea. wow. you really do just make up your arguments. do you think maybe i'm really advocating what i fucking say i'm advocating? you really feel the need to make up an enemy to argue with? so now i'm a pinko commie bastard. hell. i thought i was joking. thank you so much for helping me find my place in the world.and i swear to god, if buz suspends me because i used the word "fucking", i'm throwing a piss fit. it's simple cursing, not "meanspirited" or insulting. i don't need to insult nem. he's already demonstrated a complete unwillingness to learn anything on his own or actually debate my arguments instead of his own.Edited by brennakimi, : No reason given.Edited by brennakimi, : No reason given.

it's not.i don't like affirmative action. any choice made by race is a bad choice. but. that's not how it works.under affirmative action, if you have two potential employees (or students) of comparable experience and qualifications, you choose the one who is a member of a minority.one of the biggest reasons i don't like it is that it seems to play favorites with minorities. take this. i think, i don't know, that people who practice this principle count multiple minorities, ie a black woman has 2 counts whereas a black man or a white woman only have 1 each. if we have 4 comparable candidates each of a differing ethnicity or gender, do we need to do a chart to figure out who is minority enough to qualify? and what if the white man who applied worked up from poverty but the black woman's father and grandfather and great grandfather were all doctors? it's a hard question, because you can't say just based on color what challenges a person faced, and racially based hiring practices are racist. but all the same, if you hire first on qualifications and second on personality or some other squishy topic, you might end up with an all-white office, and that's not good for anyone. but. there have been studies recently that demonstrate that companies with greater color and experience diversity are more profitable (as are those with women at the helm), so maybe in another generation, as all the old bastards die off, we won't be having this question anymore. of course, in europe, you're dealing with huge immigrant questions, so maybe those will be more interesting than ours in ten years.

thank you.

Election Center 2008: Primary Exit Polls - Elections & Politics news from CNN.comthere's some interesting stuff on here. you'll have to click it because i'm WAY too lazy to code in fucking tables.

he doesn't. but he doesn't address the issues that are relevant to them, so why should they vote for him. you're missing the point. it's not about having a "BLACK ISSUES" page, it's about addressing the issues. no, the next option is not special compensation. the next option is fixing the issues in, for example, the funding of our education system. try remembering what's posted from one day to the next.also, please use lowercase letters for my name. it's lowercase for a reason. you responded to someone else's post posted after mine about me a whole day before i prodded you to demand that you respond. yes, and if i actually lived in a country having a genocide, i'd see that the "victim" group deserved it. clearly, they're just asking to get killed. look. unlike you, i'm willing to accept that these are individuals. some don't have jobs because they can't get them. some don't have jobs because they don't trust employers. some don't have jobs because they'd rather sell drugs and "get rich fast". and some don't have jobs because they're lazy. but here's the thing. being "ghetto" doesn't preclude intellect or work ethic or competence or even having, keeping, and excelling at a job. i've hired and worked with "ghetto" people who couldn't keep their phones on and were late occasionally because they had to ride the bus and then walk 10 miles to get to work. i found them to be wonderful employees and phenomenal people and would hire any of them in an instant. why? because i didn't turn them down because of the clothes they wore or the slang they used. albeit, it wasn't an office job. but then if i ran an office, it would run more like that job. sources, please. i've demonstrated that they're not there by choice. so you demonstrate that they are. oh, right. your google doesn't work. please don't assume such things. i don't profile. i distrust everyone in person. they are. they have the same personality profiles as police officers. they as likely as not just had different environmental influences. tell me what part of demeanor you can spot at 50 miles per hour on a black man in an expensive car? i'd suspect they were waiting around for a scene change at a theatre. have you met any white supremacists? they tend to wear jeans and t-shirts. just like everyone else. no. i don't tend to look at people. i tutored people in a college lab for 2 years and sometimes had no idea who i'd worked with beyond voice. oh no! you know a cuban! omg my whole argument is shot!!!! sweetheart.i lived in south florida for six fucking years. i'm well aware of the cuban society there. and, yes. there were professionals who came here and were given assistance to restart their lives. why? cultural warfare against communism. you've already had a response to this saying the exact same thing. they took advantage of the aid and became successful. then their children had a head start and continued to be successful. since then, not only is there the government aid for new refugees, but the established cuban community to provide aid.if you think anyone helping you makes your accomplishments worthless, that's your own damn issue. considering that, i hope you taught yourself to read and do math and all that jazz since anyone helping you would undermine your accomplishments.i, personally, did teach myself to read. i feel extra special now. thanks!Edited by brennakimi, : No reason given.Edited by brennakimi, : No reason given.

a predominantly Muslim school =/= muslim school.if i go to a school in an inner city and it's predominantly black, was it built specifically for black students and does it teach special black knowledge and only serve special black food and require prayers to the black god? no, of course not. indonesia is a predominantly muslim country. any school that does not discriminate will be predominantly muslim. get used to it.

predominantly is a word used to describe demographics. he still hasn't proven that this "predominantly muslim school" was anything more than populated mostly by muslims.

inventing more arguments for yourself. making up more arguments. do share your imaginings. i actually addressed a lot of stuff that you asked. of course, you actually never read anything i said.

no, i believe they are arabic names. don't conflate the two, you'll just confuse people.

i figured. just making sure, though

oh, so just because you cited this, you're not responsible for this claim? how convenient. take responsibility for your innuendo.if your parents named you hassan, would you be happy "stuck" as a muslim? what if our parents named you something pagan? does that mean you can't believe what you want? is that like selling your firstborn to the devil?

you cited it. prove it, oh quoter of innuendo.
