If Romney wins

    Revolution = De-evolution

    Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will have a march no doubt.

    Can you imagine those two racist idiots if Romney wins? Lol

    How is that odd? Have you been paying attention to the past 4 years?

    They won't make the same mistake twice.

    They= White people? (Your words not mine)

    I don't know what you're referring to, but I was simply taking numbers. I didn't make assertions what they meant, nor did I present those numbers that were favorable to only one party/person. I find it curious that Romney has such a margin with whites. I find it even more curious and damning for the future of the republican party, how poorly he's performing with minorities...

    He's obviously going to perform poorly with minorities when he is going against a minority candidate. That shouldn't be surprising at all.

    Remember, they know where we live.

    If you think there is a larger majority of racist white people than black people you're wrong. Not saying they don't have a valid reason to some degree but it's not even remotely close...

    Valid reason to some degree you can't be serious.

    Older generations have all the reason in the world... The younger generations who have been given every advantage possible can get bent. They don't have any excuses whatsoever.

    Correct

    Blacks are the most rassis, followed by the jews and then mexicans from spain

    I take it you've never been to an inner city school? Given every advantage is hardly a description for those schools, which are filled mostly with non-white kids. And trust me, the rampant racism from their parents' and grandparents' generation are a major part of the reason these places are highly populated with minorities.

  • There won't be any riots. A lot of folks that supported Obama last time don't care enough to go out and vote this time anyway, and don't really care if he wins or not.

    They aren't any worst off then some back-woods white trash Hickville, USA school.... Of course I haven't attended an inner city school but I know there are plenty of kids who choose to work hard enough to not end up as a statistic & instead do something productive with their life. These are a minority of the cases btw... What about everyone else?

    First off, you're disproving your own point. The kids in the back-woods white trash school also aren't given every possible advantage. Second, the percentage of minorities in these poor, inner-city schools in relation to the general minority population is significantly higher than the percentage of white people in Hickville, USA schools to the general white population. Especially if you only factor in the Black and Hispanic populations. And the kids in Hickville are probably more likely to grow up in an area that's not nearly as significantly impacted by drugs and violence. But I'd say neither of these groups have every opportunity or anything close to it. I'd urge you to visit an inner-city school that is known as a "bad school" and see how it impacts your perspective.

    As for everyone else, are you saying that minorities who grow up in more affluent areas are largely unsuccessful even when they are given good opportunities? That's pretty crazy as well and untrue.

    As someone who has taught in an inner-city school in St. Louis, there are places where these kids aren't even given a subsistence level of education and support, much less "every advantage."

    Some of what you are saying has merit... Some of it doesn't. My initial post was about young african americans having all the opportunities (maybe shouldn't have used the term advantages but in a lot of cases, it applies) in the world to be successful. You are basically saying they don't have as much of a chance as a wealthy white kid in private school. Not sure if anyone would argue that. You are dead wrong on the percentage of blacks in inner city schools being way higher than whites in lower income schools. Without looking it up, I'd guess the percentage is very close. There are more white families on welfare/food stamps then blacks & hispanics combined. Also not sure where you are coming from but Meth is just as prevelant around these parts in poor white communities as crack is in the ghetto. It sounds to me like you are an excuse maker (which is fine) but don't try to dress it up and act like there is no way out of these bad situations.. It might be a harder road but people (black and white) make something of themselves every day coming from bad backgrounds, poor educations, etc..

    "You are basically saying they don't have as much of a chance as a wealthy white kid in private school. Not sure if anyone would argue that."

    I'll absolutely argue that. The vast majority of inner-city school facilities and teachers aren't nearly up to the same level as private schools. The resources are lacking, and the students suffer as a result. Many inner-city schools don't have the resources to put together qualifying AP or IB programs. When college admissions committees sit down, they certainly don't look at whether or not your school offered these programs, they look at whether you completed them.

    Hell, even outside the educational issue, when was the last time you heard of a wealthy white kid from private school getting gunned down in a drive-by while on his way home?

    Calm down guy... I was agreeing with him. That's about as obvious of a point as there is.

    You get what you pay for.

    My bad, misread that part. I've got some objections to the rest of your post too, but I'll lay those out when I've got some time to do so.

  • If Mitt gets elected this is what you should expect:

    And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
    And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
