Horse pucky. The history is inaccurate, the arrogance is voluminous, and people who believe such nonsense cultivate the basis of everything evil we supposedly try to distance ourselves from in this country. This thinking breeds a racist caste society through ignorance and deception. His "system" is flawed to say the least and his aggrandizing manner is sickening and an embarrassment to America in the eyes of most of the civilized world.

I only hope his soap box shows how "stupid" can become an education to listeners on how not to be civilized.

Now let me tell you how I feel......

I'd better not.
