“Yes, (Bush is a) racist. We all knew that but the world is only finding it out now. As Texas's governor, Bush led a penitentiary system that executed more people than all the other U.S. states together. And most of the people who died from (the) death penalty were Afro-Americans or Hispanics. (Bush) promoted a Conservative program, designed to eliminate everything Americans had accomplished so far in matters of race and equality.” PeopleWorldMatterStatesTogetherRaceFindingsProgramDiedConservativeAccomplishedRacistTexasGovernorsPenaltiesDeath PenaltyAfros Author:Danny Glover
“Races always are good to show where you are reaching in your training as well as to keep you sharpened.

“Without a deal [with Iran], the international sanctions regime will unravel with little ability to reimpose them. With this deal, we have the possibility of peacefully resolving a major threat to regional and international security. Without a deal, we risk even more war in the Middle East and other countries in the region would feel compelled to pursue their own nuclear programs, threatening a nuclear arms race in the most volatile region in the world.” WorldFeelsLittlesWarCountryAbilityDealsRaceRiskMiddleSecurityPossibilityArmsMajorsProgramThreatInternationalEastNuclearPursueRegionsIranRegimesMiddle EastOther CountriesNational SecurityThreateningCompelledSanctionsArms RaceNuclear ArmsNuclear Arms Race Author:Barack Obama

“Ideally I would start by racing my athletes once every two weeks. But, such a program has to be flexible because some runners improve better with weekly races or even bi-weekly races.

“We're looking at the dawn of a new arms race. For example, Germany technically opposes the US space militarization program, but is bound to get involved.

“This is where I think policies do need to be somewhat race-specific, is making sure that institutions are not discriminatory.

“I think, the argument sometimes that I've had with folks who are much more interested in sort of race-specific programs is less an argument about what is practically achievable and sometimes maybe more an argument of "We want society to see what's happened, and internalize it, and answer it in demonstrable ways." And those impulses I very much understand.” ThinkingWayWantSometimesAnswersRaceHappenedProgramArgumentFolksImpulse Author:Barack Obama
“If you teach the Negro that he has accomplished as much good as any other race he will aspire to equality and justice without regard to race. Such an effort would upset the program of the oppressor in Africa and America. Play up before the Negro, then, his crimes and shortcomings.
