Will the USA vote in a black president?

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Did I say ten years ?, it may even be thirty, I do wonder if there are any 'Black' members who can throw some light on the situation, any I know are quite proud of themslves (and rightly so) in my opinion, they possess a dignity which puts the 'White' man to shame (in many instances).

God Bless them all. :wink:


"""""are quite proud of themslves (and rightly so) """"
What garbage !! Mugabe I suppose is one of them !!! The other I think Idi Amin ??



regardless of the political aspirations Robert Mugabe has, or those of the late Idi Amin, I am sure those two persons are/were extremely proud of their backgrounds.

You see miltiades, you are apparently a person with severe mental disabilities in that you are unable to detach your opinions from basic facts.

I would suggest (and I base my views on what I have seen and experienced) that the African people are among the most proud and dignified human species on the face of the earth, I know you will find some disparaging remarks to counter what I have proposed, THAT, my friend, is YOUR problem, not mine. :roll:

No reason why you would. You don't seem to know much else.

I've got 4 properties in Cyprus. A house near to Paralimni, a house in Ayia Thekla and 2 apartments in Oroklini.

I live in the Midlands because that's where my business is and so consequently that it where I make my money.

it they were "african americans," then i would be a german/british american; my ex husband would be colombian american; my landlords, italian american; my neighbor, puetro rican american.
african american is way outdated. besides, not all blacks come from africa.
