I don’t care if he quoted the Declaration of Independence, but it is ironic he talks about America’s founding on inequality in Brazil of all places. I wonder if he knows about Brazil’s founding and how slaves were treated there?

Other than that, I could care less he gives speeches. That’s what ex-presidents do.

Okay, I listened to the quote and it wasn’t bad. He does know Brazil did the same thing. Does it matter how many countries were founded on inequality? Because every single one of them were if we’re measuring it by women having rights. Times change. It only matters what the countries are like today.

What a credible news source you link!



Gateway pundit?
Everyone knows that is a fake news site - even other Conservatives.

Fake news sites

It is all fake news, conspiracy theory and Conservative propaganda.
Gateway Pundit

Provide a more credible link, and I might read it.
Seen the story covered, and seen nothing of "Hatred for America".

He did say that Brazil & the US were founded on inequality so he did address the issue.

Yeah, I went back and listened, then edited my quote already. My position is that ALL countries were founded on inequality if we are measuring it by women’s rights.

He was right we were founded on inequality. Blacks and Women were not equal back then.
It was unfair. But Katiegirl also has a point, if you are measuring by women's rights...all countries were founded on equality.

I think what he did that is making the right crazy, he said that we have some crazy gun laws
in America (of course he is correct, but expect every conservative to go crazy and swear that
some Democrat is going to come into their home and take all their guns now!!!) I am sorry, but laws like not giving guns to crazy people, kind of makes sense....it's not attacking the second amendment, it is just common sense.
