Because, according to liberal thinking, all black people are capable of only thinking a certain way. Got it. That's racist.
You do know you're exhibiting the behavior Carson was talking about, right?
1. In her book, "Uncle Sam's Plantation," Star Parker recounts her journey from life as a hustler and welfare addict to freedom. The following gives one version of the path to success.
2. "My first post-welfare job was hardly a dream job. Assigned to a sterile basement room in a huge office building, I had to hand-write the orders called in by salesmen, and send it to the shipping department. Since, the more orders they called in, the more money they made, the salesman talked fast and were rushed. The shippers, union laborers, on the other hand, received the same wage no matter how much work they did, so they talked slowly and made no effort to be efficient.
a. I acted as if it was my own customer, and the order that I was receiving was worth a million dollars to my business. My view was that hard work would open up opportunities to leave welfare behind, and poverty forever.
3. The only other black in the department was a 32-year-old female who had been there 15 years. On my first day at work she was eager to give me the scoop, including how to get away with the least amount of work for the maximum financial benefit- by paying $260 to join the labor union. Every day she would say I was "uppity" because I worked fast and actually enjoyed it! The more I fulfilled my tasks with vigor, the more dislike I engendered from the union workers.
a. I didn't now about unions, but as an ex-street hustler and con artist, it sounded a lot like paying for protection. Actually, I had no plans to remain for long, and intended to start my own business as soon as I finished writhing a business plan.
4. One particularly busy day, calls were coming in furiously! But I responded by making each feel that they were the most important call I had received that day. My supervisor asked me "Have you ever considered sales and marketing?" He went on to tell me about a full-time position in the marketing department that paid much more than my current wage. And, provided benefits without having to join a union!
a. I declined, as I had my sights set on finishing college, and owning my own business. When the union went on strike, I saw it as the right time to try my hand as an entrepreneur.
5. I began publishing a monthly magazine with a calendar of events from churches around Los Angeles. I added editorials that addressed inner city needs. The spotlight was on wholesome entertainment for single Christians. What began as 16 black-and-white pages, eventually became 64 full color pages of professional layout and some 80 advertisements 8 years later. Exciting, yes, but it was hard work to sell enough ads to cover costs, my personal overhead, and the needs of my daughter.
a. A major pitfall occurred the first time I received the ubiquitous "congratulations, you have qualified" letter from a credit card company. Wow...a symbol of accomplishment and prestige! Before long I had 10 credit cards. Six years after starting my business, I went into bankruptcy. A year later, California went into severe recession. Two years later, the L.A. riots wiped out what was left, as many of my advertisers were burned to the ground. In the middle of all that...I was divorced.
6. But my determination never wavered. I refused to go back on welfare or listen to the leftist lies that sought to discourage me from even trying! I used my talkng/selling experience to cohosting a talk show on a small Christian radio station in Long Beach. It didn't quite pay minimum wage, and had no benefits....so I made money based on commissions from advertisers of the show. So, no guarantees.....but hard work and a positive attitude paid off: soon, I was offered the opportunity to host my own three-hour daily radio talk show with and ABC affiliate in San Francisco. Not only a good salary, but they put a studio in my home!
Nothing new here.....the same works and worked for everyone.
The book is worth reading, and may well bring a tear to the eyes of any not an indoctrinated Liberal.
Better see if ya can get it on Oprah's book club listings. Let all the black folks know you're there for them.
Just thought I'd give you another chance to show some guts.....
In post #3 I caught you in this lie:
"We all know the history of how the Dixiecrats hopped over to the republican party as a result of – in opposition to - desegregation."
The Dixiecrats weren't Dixiecans....they were Democrats and continued to be Democrats.
I've provided an undeniable question....one that you have been fearful of answering, as it proves your babble to be a slanderous lie.
This question:
.....what the chances are that, after a lifetime of believing as he does, arguing DNC talking points, reading the NYTimes, and watching MSNBC, being indoctrinated...er, 'taught' in government schools, and watching Comedy Central for his news.....
.....what he thinks the chances would be that he woke up tomorrow praising George Bush's election and presidency, and voting Republican.
As the chances are zero......conclude that the same are the chances that anti-slavery party became racist.
What a team!!! You lie, and I expose the lie.
The real story.
See the South was solid Democrat, racist, segregationist. Then when the Northern coalition of Democrats and Republican forced the Civil right bill down their throats, the Republican saw the opportunity to strategically turn the typically Democratic southern states into Republican ones by appealing to the racist voters and their prodigy who felt betrayed by the democrats. It didn't happen overnight but now we see the Republican have the racist vote in the south solid.
The Dixiecrats weren't Dixiecans....they were Democrats and continued to be Democrats.

How about this: can you deny that the most popular Democrat/Liberal, Bill 'the rapist' Clinton, has been a racist his entire (Democrat) political life?
How about it?
Pease keep reaching out to black voters like this.
