"Race is everything in America today. As much as mismanaged war. As much as fiscal malfeasance. Race is everything. It is at the core of justice and poverty and opportunity and education. Race is everything." Imo that dude is full of shit. Race means very little in the U.S. today. He may think it is important, but reality disagrees.

Paying people to have kids? Don't we have enough? Or is it just simple buying votes? I want to be paid for not having kids.. Clinton proposes $5,000 "baby bonds" Fri Sep 28, 2007 2:29 PM ET WASHINGTON, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton proposed on Friday giving every baby born in the United States $5,000 to start an account to use for paying for college. Clinton made the comment at a forum sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus as she and Democratic rival Barack Obama competed for support from black voters a day after leading Republican presidential candidates skipped a debate on minority issues. "I like the idea of giving every baby born in America a $5,000 account that will grow over time, so when that young person turns 18, if they have finished high school, they will be able to access it to go to college," Clinton said. Clinton, a senator from New York, offered no details on how to pay for the program. The $5,000 "baby bonds" would accrue interest over time.
