What I don't understand is how so many conservative white people don't see the disrespect our President is enduring and not connect his race for one of the reasons why things are so contentious on capitol hill, and why politically, our country is at a boiling point.

And, hopefully, they don't want or expect anything for free, especially from their new-found momma's, aunties, or grannies...aka the Federal Government. So, it's okay for some to be the pot calling the kettle black, but when others do, it's racist. What a small mind some people have...
This thread reeks of "I'm a victim," "my family are decendents of slaves and I deserve everything free, and the Government is the answer to all of what I'm a victim of" but the author of it isn't directly stating that. Do I have friends of other nationalities? You better believe I do, but they've certainly learned not to speak of such non-sense contained in this thread. They actually take responsibility for themselves and don't blame other people for what they themselves cannot control. Do we ever once hear the Native American Indians complaining about being a victim? No. Think about what all they had to endure. They live peacefully on their reservations (or elsewhere) without plastering their faces all over the news media crying about how others have done them wrong.
Now, since you, JD, seem to side with a President (and his party) who speaks underlying one-sided nonsense that caters mostly (not completely) to the self-destructive, what else do you feel we as America owes you and those of your mindset?
