Jackson’s father was born in Carrickfergus, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Where do you get the black father idea?
What really galls me is that I have four daughters who have Mexican-American blood. Two look Hispanic and the other two look white.
Not once in all my years of raising them have I EVER stated that they should emulate or praise or follow someone because of the way they look! I couldn’t ever even imagining a phrase like that escaping my lips!
And yet, I am called a racist because I think Obama’s policies are ideologically flawed and have world history to prove my point?
That is why when someone says that I am racist, I simply say, “So? Now, lets have a conversation about the topic. NOT about whether or not I am a racist!” It really pisses people off! LOL!
Excellent piece!
His dad died before Andrew was born.
“A rumor of Jackson having “colored blood”, meaning having “Negro” ancestry,[8] was unproven. He referred to a charge that his “Mother ... [was] held to public scorn as a prostitute who intermarried with a Negro, and [that his] ... eldest brother [was] sold as a slave in Carolina.”[9][10]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Jackson#Early_life_and_education
Larry Elder, one of the best men in America (notice that I didn't say "best black men", or "a credit to his race"!), here shows by quotation how exalted, how exempt from criticism for his simon-pure, public racism, is one of the most celebrated and heavily-sanctioned black liberals in the country.
Black liberals can do no wrong; conservative whites and blacks, no right.
