Your source doesn't appear to agree with you.
When combined with my replies about Norman Saxon it does, IMO. I should have combined them and didn't.

Is the "race" component supposed to be because Franklin used the term "swarthy" to describe the complexion of the non-English Europeans such as Russians and Swedes??
I don't know. The person you need to ask that question of has been banned. I don't speak for anybody but myself.

That's an interesting dodge. Didn't you just post some links to BP's Ben Franklin quotes?? What exactly was your point?? And I have no idea what you think the Norman Saxon thing is supposed to prove.
