I read recently about some blacks boycotting an awards
program because there were not enough blacks represented. Of course this is
supported by our former President's “go – to – black leader”, Al Sharpton.
This is simply crap. The blacks I have had the opportunity
and pleasure to work with are educated, sharp individuals whose ability to get
a job done is equal to, or excels, anyone.
In addition I have had the opportunity and pleasure of working with a
large number of Hispanics, Vietnamese, Chinese, and other races of whom I have
never heard a request for a special allocation of slots or positions simply
because of their race.
Many large corporations and education organizations have held
positions open for blacks. For what reasons were these positions held open for
blacks only? Many pseudo-educated liberals are of the opinion the reason
positions or slots are held open for blacks is because black's background and
education make them unable to compete with other races. This is just BS!
Now, when a black who has worked his or her butt off to
become educated and knowledgeable in order to fill a responsible position must,
down deep in their core being, always wonder if they got the position because
they were the best candidate, or because of their skin color. How really awful
for that individual to be aware that their position they had worked so hard for
might have been granted only by fiat.
Then, we elect a President of The USA for two reasons. He is
black and can give a great speech prepared by others. By electing a black, we
think we have reversed racism. In doing so, we adequately demonstrate to the
world that collectively, we are the biggest racist in the world. We elected a
man who was unqualified as he never had any experience in managing anything,
never made a payroll, had no foreign business experience, never served in the
military, never negotiated a treaty or contract, never served as a state
Governor, never was in a position to delegate authority, never ran a business
or a large governmental agency, had to seal his college records which made his
education suspect, and surround himself with people whom he was told by his
handlers to put in his 'support' positions. But, he was black, and we assuaged
our collective guilt!
Consequently, his foreign peers make fun of both him and his
electorate, his party openly supports him - until his back is turned. He
couldn't pass any of his program when his party controlled both Houses of Congress. He is reduced to inadvertently playing the
lead role on the world's stage in “The Emperor's New Clothes”. In order to ease
the pain of knowing that he doesn't know, being unable to make decisions based
on his core beliefs, has to answer to his white foreign handlers, he lashes out
at America through his Executive Orders.
When his pain is too great, he immerses himself in his golf game where he can
personally win, based on his own real skill.
Friends, this is a prime example of what happens when we try
to help people by promoting or placing them in positions where they are far
over their heads in deep water without a life preserver. It is beyond time to
pull the plug on basing society on race, and just choose people based on the
best available candidate.
I wonder if those movie actors who desired special
allocation, ever thought they might not have been selected because they were
not the best in their craft that year. As they weren't judged the best, they had to
fall back on blatant racism by demanding a certain number of positions remain
open for their race.
We must get to the level in society as we have in sports. In
sports we can easily see that there are no positions held open for any race. If
you weigh over 250 and run the hundred in less than 10 seconds, you probably
will be able to play somewhere. (Houston QB for instance? Win, lose or draw, no
one cares what color your skin, particularly if you could lead a winning team
in Houston!)
