I know what Cecil Rhodes stood for and I don't think I'd be to proud of being associated with him. Most people who read his papers think of him as a racist..

"The idea gleaming and dancing before ones eyes like a will-of-the-wisp at last frames itself into a plan. Why should we not form a secret society with but one object, the furtherance of the British Empire and the bringing of the whole uncivilised world under British rule, for the recovery of the United States, for the making the Anglo-Saxon race one Empire. What a dream, but yet it is probable, it is possible." -- Cecil Rhodes, June 2, 1877

"The Society should inspire and even own portions of the press, for the press rules the mind of the people." -- Cecil Rhodes, 1877

"For fear that death might cut me off before the time for attempting its development, I leave all my worldly goods in trust ... to try to form such a Society with such an object." -- Cecil Rhodes, June 2, 1877


And to set the record straight: Clinton did not graduate from Oxford, hence he did not complete his Scholarship, hence he is not a Rhodes Scholar.. Any questions?

You do not know what RB is?????
