    thats what struck me funny too. Sure, he might've been discriminated against, but it's like me being singled out for being white and then going to a Klan meeting because i feel safe.

    I really believe this whole situation has a conspiracy vibe, I'm not usually a believer of conspiracies but this one... Raises some red flags.

    Yes, sadly, the country is losing a smart inventive child and a tax paying productive family. They have had so many death threats and so much hate mail they felt the need to leave the country. God bless America.

    Such a liberal race baiting thing to say. I'm convinced liberals are the most racist hate filled party in the history of the United States. They promote oppressing inner cities so those being oppressed will vote democrat for their entire existence. They are and always have been slave traders.

    So you think the history of the democratic party is more racist than a party that actively supports white supremacy? Interesting....

    Let's just refer to the last 20 years and the Democrat party, since we all know Democratic President Johnson said this "I will have these n**gers voting democrat for the next 200 years".

    1.) On December 15, 1994, federal Judge David V. Kenyon issued a court order to the Clinton Administration in the Case of Fairchild v Robert Reich Secretary of Labor (#CV92-5765 Kn). The order demanded that Secretary Reich and the Clinton Administration force 100 west coast shipping to develop an Affirmative Action plan to stop discrimination against, African Americans, Hispanics, Female and Disabled Workers. Female employees were being sexually harassed, Hispanic were being denied promotions and training, Disable Workers were being laid off, and African Americans were being force to work in an environment where they had job classification called " Nigger Jobs."

    2.) During the 2003 Democratic Primary debates, the Rev. Al Sharpton, said the Democrat take the black vote for granted and treat African American like a mistress. They [Democrats} will take us to the dance, but they don't want to take us home to meet mama.

    3.) On December 3, 2002, President Clinton spoke to Democratic Leadership Council in New York regarding the future of the Democratic Party and how they could retake the White House. At no time did he address Civil Rights issues for blacks or doing things to improve the conditions of African Americans. His only reference to Civil Rights was Civil Rights for Gays. His only reference to improving communities was his recommendation to revisit the Marshall Plan to re-build communities in other countries.

    4.) After exclusively giving the Democrats their votes for the past 25 years, the average African American cannot point to one piece of civil rights legislation sponsored solely by the Democratic Party that was specifically designed to eradicate the unique problems that African Americans face today. Congressional records show that all previous legislation (since 1964) had strong bi-partisan support, even though some Democrats debated and voted against these laws.

    After reviewing all of the evidence, many believe America would have never experienced racism to the degree that it has, had not the Democrats promoted it through:

    Racist Legislation
    Terrorist Organizations
    Negative Media Communications
    Bias Education
    Relentless Intimidation
    And Flawed Adjudication.

    The racism established and promoted by members of the Democratic Party affected and infected the entire nation from 1856 with the Dred Scott decision, to the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education case. But they never offered or issued an apology.


    And this is why Malcom X said very clearly: "If you vote democrat, and you are a minority, you are a chump!"

    The American Freedom Party does, but you think the Democrats are more racist.

    But please, why don't you post a bunch more stuff that you copied off of the internet.

    1. More Republicans voted in favor of the Civil Rights Act than Democrats

    In the 1960s, Congress was divided on civil rights issues -- but not necessarily along party lines.

    [​IMG]
    20 photos: The civil rights movement in photos

    "Most people don't realize that today at all -- in proportional terms, a far higher percentage of Republicans voted for this bill than did Democrats, because of the way the Southerners were divided," said Purdum.

    The division was geographic. The Guardian's Harry J. Enten broke down the vote, showing that more than 80% of Republicans in both houses voted in favor of the bill, compared with more than 60% of Democrats. When you account for geography, according to Enten's article, 90% of lawmakers from states that were in the Union during the Civil War supported the bill compared with less than 10% of lawmakers from states that were in the Confederacy.

    Enten points out that Democrats still played a key role in getting the law passed.

    "It was also Democrats who helped usher the bill through the House, Senate, and ultimately a Democratic president who signed it into law," Enten writes.

    2. A fiscal conservative became an unsung hero in helping the Act pass

    Ohio's Republican Rep. William McCulloch had a conservative track record -- he opposed foreign and federal education aid and supported gun rights and school prayer. His district (the same one now represented by House Speaker John Boehner) had a small African-American population. So he had little to gain politically by supporting the Civil Rights Act.


    [​IMG]

    Yet he became a critical leader in getting the bill passed.

    His ancestors opposed slavery even before the Civil War, and he'd made a deal with Kennedy tosee thebill through to passage.

    "The Constitution doesn't say that whites alone shall have our most basic rights, but that we all shall have them," McCulloch would say to fellow legislators.

    Later, he would play a key role in the 1965 Voting Rights Act and the 1968 Fair Housing Act and become part of the Kerner Commission, appointed by the Johnson administration to investigate the 1967 race riots.

    Kennedy's widow, Jacqueline Kennedy, wrote him an "emotional" letter when he retired from Congress in 1972.

    "You made a personal commitment to President Kennedy in October 1963, against all interests of your district," she wrote. "There were so many opportunities to sabotage the bill, without appearing to do so, but you never took them. On the contrary, you brought everyone else along with you."

    5. A segregationist congressman's attempt to kill the bill backfired

    Virginia's Democratic Rep. Howard W. Smith was a staunch segregationist and strongly opposed the Civil Rights Act.

    Smith, who was chairman of the House Rules Committee, came up with many tactics to discourage the passage of the bill's Title VII, which would outlaw employment discrimination because of race, color, religion or national origin.

    When Smith added the word "sex," the House reportedly laughed out loud. The ploy was Smith's attempt to quash support among the chamber's male chauvinists on the grounds that the bill would protect women's rights in the workplace, according to Clay Risen in his book "The Bill of the Century."

    Despite resistance, and complex motives, the act eventually passed, laying the groundwork for legal battles to ensure equal employment opportunities for women.

    And whether he intended to or not, Smith ended up helping to set the stage for modern feminism.

    :D You mean the one that was voted and supported by more Republicans than Democrats? And the same legislation where a Democrat senator Howard Smith set a campaign to oppose the bill?
