His bastard Kenyan father knocked up lightie then abandoned her altogther. Typical.

He was raised by the white side of his family so if anything he's more white than black.

Kiss your life as you know it goodbye if Texas ever seceded.

This is a very interesting thread to me, as an Englishman. It has never crossed my mind before that the day might come when the USA could break up. To most foreigners, this seems unimaginable.

Yet, the USSR broke up, that also seems unlikely. Go back 50 years, nobody thought it would ever happen.

There seems a lot of underlying unrest, and some unhappiness with the political situation. People should never think this can't happen. Maybe one day, it will. The USA is less than 250 years old. That is nothing in historical time.

Don't forget the Comanches, Kiowas too. Are there still Kickapoos in northern Mexico? They used to raise Hell in Texas before the Federal government in the form of Ranald McKenzie suppressed them.
I doubt folks in Texas are arming up in case the Kickapoos mount an attack.

Yes, and the breakup of the USSR went quite fast and only a few years before it had seemed so mighty and powerful.

All empires decline and break apart. There is no more common bond of any kind between the American people. The liberals absolutely loathe those "red" states and the people in them. It's become like living in a very bad marriage -- irreconciliable differences.

The USSR were communists. Obama and his liberal legion of wealth takers are communists. Yes that is what we've been trying to tell folks for four years.

I think you are correct.
Americans held a bond of common goals built on the same precepts and principles.
That is now gone having been rejected by many.
