Amen brother!

[VIDEO AT SITE]

"These are my people. Americans."

What a shame Democrats continue to try and divide the country by race and class. This man understands what is truly important. We are one nation, UNDER GOD! Too bad the reporter, NBC's Kelly O'Donnell doesn't understand that.

It doesn’t compute in O’Donnell’s air-filled head that folks with darker skin can identify themselves with groups that aren’t centered around skin color identification.

That's the retort I've used for decades when I get the - you want us to act white - BS.
"No, I want you (and everyone) to act like an American."

Yes! It was such an insulting question to begin with - it implied that he was somehow so “different” by being black that there was no way he could be a normal American making an informed political statement. If it had been me, I would have felt like punching that condescending reporter in the chops, but he gave a great answer and rose way above the question.

Did you notice the smug chuckle from the air head after he gave his honest answer? Like she was saying ‘yeah right, no one believes you’.

Thanks for sharing that clip.

This guy has it right...the TEA Party is made up of America-loving Americans....not hyphenated Americans.

> “That dude gets it, and is a great American.” <

There is another black man, an American, who gets it: His name is Bill Randall.

For any NC Freepers living in the NC 13th Congressional District, PLEASE go to Congressional Candidate Bill Randall’s web site: randallforcongress.com. Bill is running to take back the people’s seat from Brad Miller. Please give Bill a good look.

Bill is a fine American: 27 year veteran of the US Navy attaining the grade and billet of “Command Master Chief.”

He has an MBA and has been a small businessman. He’s a convicted Christian, pro-life, member of the NRA, Anti-Brad Miller and Anti-Obama. Get it, got it, good!

Watch his video “Time Is Running Out” on his web site: POWERFUL!
