This reporter puts the entire Birther movement in the context of America's racist past where a black man could either show his papers, or be represented by a white man, or he had no rights.
The question about "show me your papers" ties right back to those times, and the older people supporting the birther movement definitely have a very clear recollection of that era, and would themselves know what it means. The request by Trump to have the President of the United States show his University papers implies that he was the beneficiary of Affirmative Action- that is he took the place of a White student. This in spite of the fact that the President of the United States graduated magna cum laude, and that he was named the Editor of the Harvard Review, the highest honor that institution can grant a student. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/42791793#42791793 And while the immediate reaction to any display of racism in the US, is that it is blown out of proportion and is not an issue, you really should watch the video before hardening a position. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:337016 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
