Hillary is racist. She hates whites
Edited on Sat Jan-12-08 09:08 PM by antiimperialist
While noting the importance of Lyndon B. Johnson had in the civil rights movement, Hillary Clinton appealed to racism when she criticized white president John F. Kennedy for not even trying to pass civil rights reform:

I would, and I would point to the fact that that Dr. King's dream began to be realized when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, when he was able to get through Congress something that President Kennedy was hopeful to do, the president before had not even tried, but it took a president to get it done. That dream became a reality. The power of that dream became real in people's lives because we had a president who said, "We are going to do it," and actually got it accomplished.


White leaders need to condemn this rhetoric.

The whole interview with Hillary gave that day to Fox News can be found here:

2. Why were people so upset at her statement? It was LBJ who got the legislation passed. It was
his efforts in congress that got a lot of racist congress people to vote for the Civil Rights Act. He was a strong president on Civil Rights. What Senator Clinton said is factual.
LBJ's efforts with the Civil Rights Act is separate from the Civil Rights movement itself that began in the 1950s. By 1964 it was clear we needed this legislation and there was tremendous resistance to it in congress. LBJ got it passed.

4. whenever I've attended smaller Hillary events in Reno ...attended
mostly by 60+ men and women who looked moneyed and educated. big diamond rings that match their styled silver and white hair. Yep, that's the crowd I want my president to hang out with. Rich old boomers. I always felt out of place.

11. Welcome to DU Ursi.
Be careful about insulting white haired Caucasians with money who wear diamonds though. You never know who you may be talking bad about. I think you may have insulted my Mother.
