How are Obama's approval ratings among the white working class and white middle class in America?
I guess you guys are in the minority. After how the European settlers treated the original inhabitants, it seems rather ironic. Payback is a bitch.
What is the point of answering stupid questions or responding to idiotic remarks from the clique?
Fact is Cliffy, you can't answer the questions, and if you were able to do so, you would undermine much of your position in doing so.
That said, all that's left for you is feigned indignation and emotion-based commentary
Actually, we remain the numerical majority in this country; however, we don't control any of the country's institutions. It doesn't look like we will ever again control the country.
The natural conclusion is that we no longer have a stake in the success of the United States. That being the case the question posed is how to react. Let's look to history for examples.
Let's look to the aborigines of North America. They faced similar circumstances and reacted in different ways.
We could adopt the approach ultimately employed by Chief Sitting Bull of the Lakota Sioux. Go along to get along until your culture and identity are gone.
Alternatively, we could adopt the approach of Chief Tecumseh of the Shawnee. Fight to the death despite an awareness that the course of history flows against us. In other words, it is better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees.
I think that the second alternative is the appropriate course of action. Tecumseh fought with bladed weapons. I think a form of poison is a weapon more useful in the current age.
What you don't realize is the global order you envision is similarly doomed. Your world is dependent on evolution of international institutions and the world order to continue toward a system of universal fairness to the dispossessed, and payback to the oppressors of the past. That world was dependent on the existence of Western hegemony. But Western hegemony is dying. As an example I direct your attention to the creation of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank by China which will replace the IMF, World Bank and Asian Development Bank in time. Control of international finance will pass from Washington, DC to Beijing. Chinese sensibilities are anathema to transnationalists like you.
Your incipient world order will die stillborn because it exists only in the minds of Western intellectuals. Yes, you are a Western intellectual. The real new world order being born will have no place for you. If you're curious about it you should inquire. But you may have to wait for an answer to any questions you have because I'm busy taking scalps and counting coup.
I wish we were still in an age when honorable people picked up sharp edged weapons and met each other with tactical honor. Unfortunately, we live in an era when it is necessary to slowly and surreptitiously introduce poison into the body politic.
Fact is Rummy, I have answered that question every time you have posed it and every time you ran off on your strawman arguments. The original people were the ones living here when Columbus arrived. The ones that were slaughtered in one of the greatest genocides in human history. But it must be nice to wash your hands of the crimes of your ancestors by pretending it never happened and that because of the Europeans superior intellect and ingenuity, the indigenous people just died off from the shock of having met such superior peoples. You just continue to be smug in your rape and pillage society and when you are choking to death on the excrement of your superior culture, perhaps then you may wonder if you weren't so smart after all. Then again, I doubt it. You would be to proud to ever admit that maybe you were wrong.
Funny, I never hear you actually speak of the North Asians, Egyptians and Vikings or even Polynesians for that matter.
PS - I do recall your rants of how hundreds of millions were slaughtered by the genocidal actions of many groups incl Columbus, the Vatican, Europeans, etc, et al, ad nauseum... Reads just like the conspiracy theories that you espouse continually.

How would they be relevant to the genocide of the Indians?
Amazing how offensive Obama bowing is to people that ain't Americans.
The aborigines of North America weren't subject to genocide. They were bred out of existence for the most part. A remnant population still survives, but they are tainted with Euro Peon genes. Some live on reservations, while others have joined a mystical priesthood called The Bar Association.
You are starting to talk like Rummy. Have you never heard of the Trail of Tears, Sand Creek massacre, Wounded Knee, what the Spanish did to the people who occupied the island the Columbus landed on? Archaeologists, Anthropologists and Ethnographers all say that between 60 and 100 million people died in the Americas as a direct result of European invasion. Many died of disease, some intentionally from infected blankets, many died at gun point. Then there was the residential school system where the Indian was beat out of them. In the beginning Indians were put into slavery until they were nearly wiped out from being worked to death and the slave owners started importing African slaves to replace them. Your grasp of history is severely lacking.
Just pointing to Cliffy's statements on 'original inhabitants'
PS - The various tribal entities we refer to First Nations in Canada had established a wonderful track record of genocide amongst their rivals... According to Cliffy, some examples of cannibalism too.
So, where do you want to apply the generous use of the word 'genocide'?... Only when it was a European involved?... The Indian on Indian killing don't count?
Interesting that no one is very forthright about the rampant enslavement of the vanquished during the inter tribal warfare that was a daily event.
In an environment of social sensitivity, I find the silence on that issue quite deafening
Well, complete and total submission is one kind of Foreign Policy I suppose
