If anybody can tell me that those listed above care about any other race beyond their own more than the masses "assume" about President Trump I demand facts.

That's why,once again,it's time for people to start doing things for themselves.
If the government does it,it's going to be fricked up.

Not sure about any hot takes,but I can tell you this: The best thing for race relations,is that citizens are employed together,of all races.Working together and building relationships based on real interaction,reliability,fair treatment,etc..It's been missing for a long time.

This is the benefit that goes beyond economics. White guys and black guys checking out each others cars and bikes in the parking lot,the conversations,start and get better,and more involved. You may think I'm a dreamer...

Yeah, because all the angry white people making cartoons of him as a monkey or hanging him in effigy or questioning his birthplace, religion, and citizenship - that was all because of his rhetoric, right? And the massive groundswell of black voters who came out to support him in 2008 - they ignored all that stuff but were inflamed by his rhetoric, right?

There is a racial divide that had been papered over for about 15 years before his election, but the bandaid was ripped clear and everyone was shocked there was still a wound and no one knew how to stop the bleeding (or profits off continuing racial division and chose to ignore the path of reconciliation).

AND HE STILL LOST THE POPULAR VOTE.

The main cause of the racial division in this country is that 13% of this country wants things to be 50/50 with the white majority when they are no longer even the largest minority group. They think that the white majority lives to oppress them. However, the white majority does not even really worry about them at all.

Years ago, I listened to the Jesse Jackson show on the radio, and the entire show was about black people bitching about American. The very next show was an Asian show, and they all praised America and the opportunities that it offered. One could not listen to both shows and not come to the conclusion that one community wants to live the American dream and the other wants to continue to be the American victim.

Obama lost the popular vote. So were you as adamant about bringing that up? Just timeline and consistency checking here...
