The Confused Mind
Confused and disillusioned people seaching for new certainties, and values, turn to political ideologies that openly reject reason, laud dissension, even war, and scorn the inviolability of what should be the makeup of the human persona--- Reason! Da Bad Guy!
Birthrite
In traditional society social order was derived from God, that is to say a person's place was determined by birth and custom. Society was divided into 2 strata, the Elite, and the masses. In essence it is said, and felt that human beings are unequal by nature, and material possessions (wealth), and they cannot be shared by all.
Machiavellian Tradition dictates that the ruling elite exploit the masses to their own advantage.
So, apparently we dwell in that same traditional society. Da Bad Guy!

Myths
Since the beginning of time, myths have played a powerful role in the formation of institutions and shaping the beliefs, customs and religious rites of humans. Most myths are of unknown origins but may be traced to some historic event from times long gone. Many believe that myths have the power to liberate the mind and guide the soul along a spiritual path of human potentiality. Without myths, life has little meaning but when fabricated for the benefit of a chosen few, myths become a detriment to humanity by impeding mental growth and understanding. Author: A.T.

Does it ever change?
Here in the year of our Lord 2013, the dialogue concerning Blacks in America is no different than in 1956 when Americans shouted long, and loud about the atrocity's the Soviets inflicted upon the Hungarians, yet no one was reviled as the Montgomery Bus Boycott raged. In fact coalitions were formed to keep these inferior Negro's in their place. One such organization, the FCG or the Federation for Constitutional Government whose aims partly were to nullify the Supreme Courts decision on desegregation (remember White America refuses to publicly acknowledge themselves as radical racist) are a blueprint for what white America, its Republican and Tea parties says its aims are today. The FCG's goals were to build an alliance of Conservatives in every part of the country to: Oppose the United Nations, Limit the power of the President to make treaties with Foreign Nations, oppose organized Labor, Social Medicine, High Taxes, Economic Aid Programs, and to reverse unpopular Supreme (Warren) Court Decisions. The executive head of the organization, Louisiana Businessman John U. Barr, emphatically stated that the Supreme Court decision outlawing segregation" is a usurpation of power by the Supreme Court and is essentially void because that power belongs to the Legislative branch of Government, not the Judicial Branch". The stated goal of the FCG is to maintain the purity of both the White and Negro races. "That is the entire motivation of our group" emphatically stated by John U. Barr.
As preposterous as this sounds, the Republican Party's goals that we know today are almost a carbon copy of John U. Barr's, and the FCG's platform that was rode to power by an obscure, has been Actor turned politician, that has been dubbed the Greatest President in the history of the U.S.....Ronald Wilson Reagan.
Just as dialogue in 2013 is no different than 1956, it is that mirror image of 1848's Emerson vs Carlyle, or when Lincoln fought with Douglas in the 1850's. You must understand Jim Crow never dies, he just changes his tone from premeditated, inflammatory invectives to a moderate, politically correct rhetoric which is more pleasing to the unsophisticated ear.
White America is sanctimoniously outraged when George W. Bush rails against Sadaam Hussien, the Taliban, and Osama Bin Laden and the terror they inflict upon humanity, but he and White America turn a deaf ear to the racial injustices, system of Jurisprudence run amok, and the poverty, sickness, and disease that is perpetuated by the institution of policies and procedures of his, or his predecessors Administrations, the Republican party, White Citizens Councils, Polices Chiefs, Governors, Bankers, University Presidents, and even the Ku Klux Klan doing whatever they can to preserve "White Purity" which is nothing but a catch phrase for Racial Superiority.
Of course publically they make the pretense of calling for equity, but label anyone calling for the end of segregation and separation as being an extremist. All the while they wage a subtle propaganda blitzkrieg on the American people calling for the preservation of the America they know and love. Separate, Unequal, and more importantly Unconcerned.
The legacy of the Bush Administration is the perpetuation of lies and the prostitution of the minds of the American people. As were the legacies of Lincoln, Truman, Eisenhower, Roosevelt, and every President up to and including the present one. (To his credit Truman campaigned and railed for equality in the most racist areas of Missouri, even against the KKK).
Blacks have been described as less mentally capable, therefore unable to grasp what it takes to become an integral part of mainstream American society, (therefore all the negatives, and misnomers hurled at Barack Obama and his intellect, or lack thereof) dehumanized is how America chooses to think of them. Blacks who can read and write, who have escaped the legacy of ignorance and institutionalization have always been the bane of whites existence, and the reason why until relatively recently Southern States outlawed or effectively discouraged the efforts to educate Blacks. With the advent of the New Generation, Whites efforts aren't even needed because Blacks choose not to educate themselves, opting instead for lives of fun, and frivolity, when school, education, and the future is unimportant, effectively removing themselves frrom mainstream American society without any assistance at all.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the only place to go from there is down. Down to the institutions of Addiction, Poverty, Sickness, Disease, Confinement and Death, where all the fires have been stoked for their entrance. Character Assassins that lurk behind every corner, seek to destroy, defame, and humiliate every person of color and lump them all together in the one group of non, under, and unwilling to acheive with bias, prejudgement, and the spread of negative and inflammatory propaganda. This widespread and destructive swath of anti-intellectualism and cowardice is pervasive throughout this year 2013 as it was 40. 50, and even 100 plus years ago.
Think about it, only a person of high principles will look out for the common man, its the little guy that needs someone up top (in a position of power) to watch his back.

Pay Attention my Friend
The actor Stacey Keach narrates a news magazine show on CNBC called American Greed. In it, people are profiled throughout the United States who take the life savings of unfortunate people who have not learned to follow their internal compass. I say this because without fail almost each, and every one of them allude to the fact that they knew that something wasn't quite right in the salesman's pitch , but they went ahead at the insistence of the pitchman (in most cases), and all but had a hand in taking themselves to financial ruin. Massive deception encapsulates America on a routine basis in every field of endeavor, but it is rarely heard of until its reaches the scale of the Bernie Madoff saga. While most Americans trudge along, going about their daily lives, a large percentage of them don't realize that they are a part of the American scam machine, so to speak. By assigning titles, giving companies catchy names, and dressing the CEO, CFO,COO, or any of the company heads in his best Ivy League attire and getting the lingo down pat, most peoples guards are relaxed and then its, let the games begin. Under the guise of assistance, homes and property have been devalued, while the mortgage companies play roulette, and gamble with the fortunes of their investors. To make matters worse they actually receive bailouts from the government to get out of the holes they dig for themselves. Even if you tried to pay attention you were diverted with stories about who was the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby, or Lindsey Lohans' state of inebriatedness, because the powers that be know that most of you are more interested in gossip than worrying about something solid, like your family's financial stability, or future, then throw in the fact that some computation, or math is involved, (far be it for you to strain your brain) because who has time for thinking that hard. These people routinely take all that you have, and then return to their massive estates on Cape Cod, with multiple private jets, helicopters, and any of the accoutrement's that the good life has to offer, and bask in the glow of success with their families while their monthly tally in the upkeep of their mistress is probably larger than what 65% of America lives off of for the year and you made it all possible because you were more interested in knowing how Kourtney and Kim took Miami. Now ain't that a Bitch! Now for the kicker though, the few and far who happen to get caught up are given a sabbatical at a country club that they call a Federal Holding Facility for a few months, whereupon afterwards they disappear with all the millions of dollars, never to be heard from again. The puzzling thing though is, if one of us gets caught up in some relatively minor breach of the law, we're locked up for inordinate amounts of time. Go figure! Its time to turn off the Jodie Arias trail, who cares who won an Oscar, time to pay attention to your affairs my friend. Take care of your business, or your business will take care of you!
Da Bad Guy!

Ooops, they' re at it again
In none of his addresses, speeches, or public pronouncements nowhere is there to be found any references to equality, emancipation, or freedom concerning blacks. Yet the perception amongst many Americans (including People of color) is that Lincoln is the great emancipator. Foreigners without fail always want to know where MLK gave his "I have a dream speech" and it is on the steps of the Lincoln memorial, but believe this...Lincoln was no emancipator or abolitionist. In fact he was far from that, but the perception that has been put forth by American Historians to preserve the prestige of his Administration is nothing more than diplomatic theater for obfuscation while America continues along its obdurately intransmutable path of business as usual.
