Coach, it is interesting that Lincoln wanted to send them back and did send some to Liberia I believe plus he helped create a South American country to ship them too. Almost to a black slave they refused to go. No thank you!

Strom. Now there's an old school dem for you. LOL! I was in Charleston visiting my daughter and her husband this past week when the greatest democrat president of them all (had he been elected) Fritz Hollingsworth from there died. He was yellow dog democrat from hell dog cussing the Bushes, even Reagan some and decried Carter for being weak. But he would backslide on the Negro issue from time to time.
He had one issue he always was right about and cussed Obama about too. Pay your damn bills. He raised hell about borrowing money saying we spend billions upon billions on interest and get nothing. If you ain't got the money to pay for it you don't need it. Tall, erect military man who graduated from the Citadel, fought the Japs and Germans and traded wives half way through the game and married his secretary (USC ex-beauty queen) and picked up 20 some odd years. And kept her pregnant and at home too just like number one.
