the connection between my politics and Dr King are very clear. I am against judging anyone on their color of their skin. You are for this? You are afraid to state your position. You're like the kid in a race who says everything is equal once you give him a 100 foot lead. AA was about equalizing the disparity between races and men and women created over a hundred years. When all races have eco. parity, IMO there will no longer be the need for AA. And I will be glad to see it go! Everyone should be judged by their character and not by the color of their skin. Just what in the world do you call quotas based upon the color of your skin? Where were you hundred years ago? Minorities could have used you in their fight to prevent discrimination. And its not color but rather minority status and gender. If you are freaked out about AA, then you should blame your male ancestors.......assuming you are white and Christian. They did not believe in judging someone by their character but rather by their background.....religion, race and/or gender. We are paying for the past prejudices of our ancestors. Why do you never complain about them and their niggardly behavior? "Giving" money to anyone will never secure freedom and justice. No one is "giving" money away under AA. No one is asking for or getting a free ride. No one is suggesting Ask anyone in poor neighborhoods sitting on their front porch getting shot at. And ask Oprah about "giving" money away. I rarely watch Oprah but what's her Angels program all about? Its sounds like that's money that's given away. Are you suggesting we should end the lotteries in this country. They definitely are giveways! Why are you so against getting economic parity between the races in this country?
