Are we closer to The Dream, or further away?

Thought about this driving to work today. MLK was a great man, too bad he never was our president. He wanted equality for all. Not one group in favor of another, or tearing down one group in order to build up another.

I feel like today, as we stand, we are moving further away from that day.

We just spent 8 years with a leader that showed he was rather unqualified to be in office. Because a few people had stupid racial criticisms of him, all legitimate criticism (of which there was many) was rolled up and called racist. The idiot screamings of a few drowned out the legitimate screamings of many.

Now we get a guy that is an orange clown, who has many great ideas, but they are getting drowned out by the idiot few who think make america great again means an end to civil rights and a return to slavery.

This is not how it was supposed to be.

His dream will never be accomplished as long as people are getting wealthy from race baiting.

Further away

Too many professional race hustlers who need blacks to stay poor and downtrodden, and make sure things stay that way

These race hustlers work with politicians and pastors to make sure the programming is sent out to the masses

Anyone who challenges said race hustlers is considered a racist

After November's "white lash" i would say we have hit a set back but demographics changes will solve all... Particularly as the Jim Crow generation continues to be culled by father time...

Posts like this are why we are further away and may never get there.

Well we did see the Death of Robert Byrd and many other racist Jim Crow Dems the past 8 years before the so called "whitelash" you mentioned.

Ironically, the left celebrated their deaths. I wonder why?

Just go out and say you hate white people. Because this is what I convey from your post.

Also, you assume that anti-minority attitudes are simply a matter of age and an older generation. Wrong. New racists are born every day.

A white lash that included millions of Asians, Hispanics, and 15% of black men?

I realize that I too made a mistake feeding the troll.

Probably best to just ignore it. Let them put their hate in display, but back off and cheer it on. The country needs to continue to see the enemy lies within. People like that poster do not want unity. It would kill their party, and we know party comes before country with their ilk.

I dont hate white people at all. In fact i dont personally know any people as awful as most of you on this board... But the many white folks i am friends with completely agree with my stance on this question.

Anyone that actually uses the term "white lash" does not deserve a response. No one can take someone serious after that.

We know why. A certain group of people lost their minds watching Obama getting sworn in. Trump is their petty revenge for that emasculation.
Plus we ran an awful candidate ourselves.

You mean the same group who voted for Obama in 08 and 12?

Why did you list the demographics he lost by double digits and leave out the white vote %. Do white males while you are at it.

Trump won over hundreds of thousands of Obama voters in swing states. Nice try though

What cracks me up about idiots who tout that garbage is the majority of them, like Jones, do not live in truly diverse areas.

I'm a minority where I live now, and the majority of folks I know voted DJT, while I didn't. White, Black, Hispanic and....drum roll...Muslim. LOL

Yet this was a "whitelash".

But I get it. They need constant division to thrive.
