[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I note with interest the division between Republicans and Democrats and blame Obama's "divide and conquer" strategy. That might be an effective strategy for a community organizer but woefully misplaced in the leader of the free world. Much of what has happened isn't his direct fault, but he has set a tone ("the fish rots from the head") and liberals have followed. Republicans, in turn,  have reacted. We see the results not only in the harsh discourse between Republicans and Democrats, but in actual events. The IRS is a good example. I doubt that Obama directed the commissioner to delay approval for conservative groups, and thereby suppress their voice, but he did set such a negative environment -  even referring to Republicans as "enemies" - that the IRS leaders felt comfortable doing what they did.

Beyond the animosity between Republicans and Democrats, we see it between rich and poor and black and white, too. Racial tensions have not been this bad since the 1960s. Class warfare is palatable. And unfortunately, I do not see that either Trump or Clinton will turn things around.

Racial tensions were bad in 1960s BECAUSE the whites cant digest the blacks will eat with them in restaurants, study with their kids in schools, and travel with them in buses,trains and flights. They just couldn't fathom that the previous slaves are now equals.

Racial tensions are bad since Obama took over as president, because the same whites who couldn't agree with civil rights couldn't digest a Black man(even though he was 50% white) and his black family gets to be in the "White" house. And some of the White senators and representatives worked so hard to ensure that the black man's legacy is tarnished by blocking everything against the interests of their own poor white voter. LBJ is so right about how to get to make the poor white guy to vote against his own interests.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - Lyndon Johnson.[/quote]

Oh, please.  It is precisely this type of thinking that has caused a deterioration of our society. 
I couldn’t care less WHAT color Obama is.  But, I do care about his policies and his promises. 
I didn’t like where he planned to take this country.  I didn’t like his concept of “fundamental transformation.”
I haven’t agreed with most of what he has done.  But, it isn’t because of his color.  It is all about his policies. 
Get off the “race horse.”  [/quote]

Agree. I would be all over having a black conservative President. Does the PP think only black votes got Ben Carson that far in the primary season? [/quote]

How far? He didn't win any state or was even second in any state. The racist voters wont even vote for hispanic guys cruz/rubio even though each one of them were functionally white. Guess what happened, no one could race bait the white voters like Drumpf. That is the voter base of the republican party. Nobody said(even though Drumpf never meant it) they would build a wall to keep out the brown people. Nobody but Drumpf said they will ban the entry of muslims or ban trade with china. So we know which party is the base for racists. [/quote]

While you're complaining about whites feeling do superior to blacks, you might consider not calling Trump by a name intended as a put-down. [/quote]

Drumpf is his family name, not Trump. Are you ashamed of his German ancestry, if he is called by his proper german last name?[/quote]
Proper? Who are you to determine another person's "proper" name? You may choose your "proper" name, but not anyone else's... except your children's... until their 18th birthday. Sorry.[/quote]

Please tell that to Drumpf's grandfather who escaped police from Germany for fraud and changed his name to trump so German police cant reach him in the USA. Defrauding people, apparently is the family business. [/quote]
I don't know his grandfather the way you do, but I certainly wouldn't be defending the German government of that era. Are you sure you want to?[/quote]

This was pre nazi era we are talking about. Go read something, google and read about Drumpf clan and how they made their money. NYT has done an extensive biography of the Drumpf family and business.[/quote]
