The Pope laments blacks and indians
WASHINGTON - Pope Benedict XVI praised America as a land of opportunity and hope Thursday as he celebrated the first public Mass of his U.S. pilgrimage, but he lamented that the country's promise fell short for American Indians and blacks.

what is ironic about this is due to Indian gaming here in Ca most Indians live a LOT better than most Americans. They each get a house and like 100k to start out with. I know blacks that are living the American dream with much more than I might ever have, went to University like Columbia, own a home and are making 6 figure incomes....
