No Godfathers close to me. I don't have a choice. ;-)

He is a wonderful man!
He walks the way he talks, and God blesses him abundantly!
May he succeed with this ad campaign.

expect some namecalling by Dems. They hate Rich, Conservative Pro-Lifers. Add Black to that and it makes their heads explode.

We've all been morons at one time or another and I've had my full share - just ask my mother-in-law.

Let's crunch these numbers to get a ballpark figure.

Assumptions:
* population of 280,000,000 at time of study.
* Blacks comprise 12.5% of population.
* Whites comprise 75% of population.
* Women comprise half the population.

Given these assumptions, we have 347,179 white abortions for 34 states against a white population of 210,000,000, half of whom are women. We have 35,000,000 in black population, half women.

White abortion rate: approx. 3.31 per 1,000 women.

Black abortion rate: approx. 13.2 per 1,000 women.

That black abortion rate is 4.00 times that of the white rate, using those 1995 numbers and the designated assumptions.
