hope this works out towards increased opportunities for historically disadvantaged people... or in non-pc, I hope this helps a bunch of poor black kids get their ass educated out of the ghetto...

As far as I know, he hasn't signed an order pledging support to historically white or brown colleges....how do you define racist actions?

Until the 60's and passage of the CRA, HBCU's were the ONLY choice for blacks and minorities who sought a college degree. They were not viewed as equal to traditional institutions then, and that perception remains today (look at the latest rankings of colleges and universities in the USNews and World Report, Forbes, Newsweek). Most traditional colleges were white only before the CRA. Focusing attention and additional funding on HBCUs is a kind of atonement for past prejudice that left those populations at a disadvantage.

As with most things Trump, we have to wait and see how this turns out. He took the HBCU initiative away from the Dept. of Education, and put it back under the executive branch, but did not commit any funding. The Presidents of those colleges have requested $25 Billion in new funding, mostly for rebuilding, modernization and infrastructure improvements. Without any funding, this will be nothing but an empty promise/photo-op...

I guess not the same way you do. I think attempting to college educate more black people is altruistic.

pretty clear Victor was being funny by showing Trum putting Blacks ahead of Whites...

but at least the new Dept of Ed secretary thinks that Black Colleges were "pioneers" in school choice!
Dumbest statement of the year so far...retracted already.

At least frank gets it.

Just trying to help this crowd out.

I mean... Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure if Obama had made the same statement it would be used in arguments here as proof Obama was a racist president.

But heck... no outrage this time...

What am I? Oh yeah... shocked... shocked I tells ya.

Being a horrible racist person? I applaud Trump for his statement. But would like to see what actually happens as a result.

Trump reaches out to minorities, he's a racist. He doesn't reach out he's a racist. Lol

Does your post once submitted not have an "edit" button in the top right corner?

The irony wasn't lost on me, hence the sarcasm smiley and my follow up sentence stating the fact that he will be called a racist no matter what he does.

It seems now if a person doesn't agree with what someone does or says the easiest way to attempt to silence and discredit the other person is to call them a "racist." I have not seen anything Trump has done that I would call racist or fascist. If anything he has brought to the surface the hatred that is in so many liberals hearts. Not yours frankj I didn't say all liberals ;) haha

99... if you think I'm calling him racist because he's doing something I don't like then you really did miss the point of the post.

Or you might be on a tangent... in which case carry on.

I can't stand the mobile site.

Vic- Not directed at you at all, I see what you're saying. My tangent was that it seems when people now disagree they instantly start with trying to debase the other person instead of debate them on their opinion.

I miss debate class, the entire purpose of it was largely lost on me at the time, but I read articles daily where its existence was never even realized by millions.

So... we all know I normally dismiss a lot of Victor's posts as partisan babble, but I have to admit a bit of self reflection on this one.

If Obama had done it, it would have bothered me. Trump did it, and yep... doesn't bother me.

I think I know why, though, and it isn't about race. It's more about reaching across the aisle. Obama would have been helping the folks who largely voted for him, so while maybe just as altruistic... the appearance wouldn't be the same. It would look more "quid pro quo".

Trump is helping the folks who largely did not vote for him. So, in my mind, it is different.

Thanks macs... I actually appreciate you thinking about that. And I don't disagree that the implication is a little different. But the singling out of black colleges would have been met with howls of indignation here if Obama had done it. Stuff about if there were a historic white college it would be racist etc etc...

As I said, you made a valid point, and it caused me to think about why my reaction would have been different.

I'm certainly not racist, so I had to think about why the hell it was different to me.

your're right.
Kinda like when Obama called for an end to illegal immigration from Mexico: Cheers from the press!
But when the Donald does it?

And funny thing?
People are more outraged by a wall then by men with guns.

Obama claimed to put "extra border guards" with guns and that's OK.
But build a wall that's too tall to climb? OUTRAGE!

I'd rather my neighbor put up a fence then hire 24/7 armed security.
But that's me.



And kudos to the original post. You're a one-man click bait on these boards!

had I known you had Mexican neighbors, I'd never would have brought the The Lovely Caren over.
You told me the wall was for handball.
