Each person is a majority of one!



Simon de Hundehutte writes in the American Thinker,
...I have often thought of the day that Barack Obama got nominated by his party to be the day that the Reverend King began spinning in his grave. I could imagine him shouting from high above, "Didn't you people listen to me? I said it was 'content of character,' not 'color of skin' that mattered!"

...Barack Obama's nomination and subsequent two terms in office ushered in the worst kind of racism: acceptable racism. It's okay now to champion skin-color over character (for one of the major parties, at least). And it's okay to demand diversity, as long as it's diversity of, most notably, skin color and sexual preference, not diversity of ideas.

...since each person is unique, each is created equal; therefore, no person should ever be referred to as a "minority." Minor to whom? If you call someone a minority you are raising your status above theirs.

...So, Reverend King’s dream was not realized with the election of a black man to the presidency. With Obama’s election (and, sadly, re-election), Americans voted for their own punishment for the national sin of acceptable racism.

Will we wake up as a nation and color-correct so that the future can be based on a person’s individual integrity? Can and will that happen?

I guess I can dream.
