    That referred to pandering. He's a black man who was born in America. He's also integrated into the culture. He's part of The Talented Tenth snd he knows what that means. He's African-American.

    Is German-American used to evoke emotion? Italian-American? Irish-American?
    Please elaborate.

    That a higher percentage of whites are not on welfare than blacks and if whites were on welfare at the same rate as blacks we'd go bankrupt. Same with crime.

    Doesn’t matter what he promises as he doesn’t have a chance in hell at winning nomination.

    I am asking you to elaborate on your comment. I guess it's hard to do that without sounding xenophobic.

    Not as a percentage of their population and if they were we'd be bankrupt, same with crime. If white males committed crime at the same rate as black males we couldn't build enough prisons to hold them all.

    I just did.
    Nobody gets referred to as German American unless their practically fresh off the boat.
    Ever black person is called African American even if their family has been here 10 generations.

    It is heavily associated with slave ancestry.
    You know that. But you're here to pretend you're winning a debate, so go ahead and deny it

    I am in favor of reparations for those that were actually slaves, but they would have to be 155 years old even if they were born on the last day of slavery.
