The black panthers weren't open minded, they were murderers 1) First of all not ALL of them were murderers, that is a blanket statement. I think you could also find Libertarian murders or Republican murderers or Democratic murders too. (Personally I think the racism of the Panthers and black power were the very worst thing to happen to the black community from that era.) In fact Lyndon Johnson made me the Libertarian I am today. I consider him a murderer on a vast scale. And Charlie Manson was not convicted of the direct murder of anyone. Merely ordering it. 2) Lincoln did not adore black people. What I admire about him is his intellectual flexibility. He CHANGED his mind regularly and listened to arguments from people like Grant and Sherman. 3) Eisenhower was a longtime military man who warned us about... the Military. I admire him a lot. You know they made him joint commander not Patton.
