Former President George W. Bush condemned bigotry and white supremacy Thursday while endorsing policies that run counter to those supported by President Donald Trump.

"Our identity as a nation, unlike other nations, is not determined by geography or ethnicity, by soil or blood. ... This means that people from every race, religion, ethnicity can be full and equally American," he said during remarks at the George W. Bush Institute in New York City. "It means that bigotry and white supremacy, in any form, is blasphemy against the American creed."

Well, Niger still has slavery to this day. How about blacks looking at their own native country to see how it is doing instead of here in America. Africa has many slaves and they are not owned by white people.

He’s beginning to sound like Donald Trump.

Much as I thought Bush was a jerk and that he lied to us about weapons of mass destruction, he's starting to look good compared to that stupid orange thing we ended up with.

African American’s ancestors don’t hail from Niger.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh!

Our native country is the United States...and we were here long before YOUR ancestors got here.

Why would we listen to him after what he has done to this country? The nerve of him wanting to put another Bush in there.

well, bigotry and white supremacy should always be condemned.

But white supremacy is not a reason at all why Trump won. They need to be honest with themselves.

This may be the first time liberals have ever agreed with Bush. Has anyone checked the weather forecast in Hades?

Dubya is a failed President. So many liberals hated him, but the irony was that he was/is a liberal. He called himself the compassionate conservative and was all about social engineering. It was his meddling in the housing market that caused the 2008 crash. This is the President who refused to give testimony to the 9/11 commission without Dick Cheney by his side. Who cares what this guy has to say?
