So you support segregation or slavery?

The idea of a all white, Protestant nation died even before the Republic was founded. Maryland began as a Catholic colony. Benjamin Bannacker, a black man, was the architect for Washington DC. The Confederacy included black and Catholic soldiers. Hell even the Confederate Attorney General was Jewish. America may have been predominately white and Protestant at the founding and there may have been racism to attempt to keep it this way, but even great men make mistakes. Most Americans of all races and religions began to see themselves truly as one people as we have matured as a nation. We have also elected a Catholic President(admired by many here on FR), appointed a black Secretary of State, a black National Security Advisor, among other minorites both conservative and liberal who have contributed much to the Republic.

The idea of an "All Black Nation" is constantly discussed in the "Ultra Racist" wing of the Democratic Party.That would be the "Commie Black Caucas". Why don't they resign? Why don't we start a "Conservative Firestorm" every time they open their racist mouths? Flood Rush, O Reilly and Hannity with the remarks of these racists and defeat them at their own game. ENOUGH!!!
