I know a trick question when I see one! I have no ambition to govern men; it is a painful and thankless office. #1. He'd not be running for election at all. #2 He's be slight agog & maybe a little happy that his country had grown enough that a black man could stand up in public & make these statements without being killed immediately. Like many progressive thinkers I think he might agree w/ the basic opinions of Wright, but think the style of presentation did more harm than good for their cause.

wow. just wow. this is a horrible comparison. I will be doing a similar comparison soon. the one where I compare barack obama to jeffery dahmer. that is the only fair comparison. you have got to be kidding me MG. you are way too smart for this crap. being the only historian of jefferson that I know of on this forum, I find this entertaining. I feel your pain...... I was getting used to all your Jefferson quotes......somehow they won't have the same ring.......more of a sting............ but I agree with you ............I can't see the comparison.........

I know that. I respect them all. I do not really respect wright. I respect his right to say what he wants, but I don't respect the man.

What would Jefferson think of this "consumer" nation opposed to his agrarian nation notion....
