Well, if that's true, then yes, I guess they did just make it up; odd.

Dr. Donald May? Now why does that name sound familiar?

Anyway, this man is apparently as accomplished as he is intelligent.

God bless conservative Lubbock and moderately conservative Texas!

Dr May doesn't look like a black man. And does not appear to be a minister.

WOW!!!!......Exposed

It looks like the Republicans is desperately looking for minority support of their views. If ANY support comes from a minority, they are going to promote.

I find his deification of a document written by slave holders and a small group of aristocrats a tad odd, myself.

This is too stupid to even answer!
How about YOU supply a link to this statement!

He has ridiculed us for the high value we place on our

He tells us we do
not deserve to keep the money we have earned.

..by a Radical President and his eager accomplices.
What has taken generations to build is systematically destroyed and replaced
with the same Socialist Evil that brought poverty, destruction, and despair
to untold hundreds of millions..

Our European and Canadian friends beg us to not make the same Socialist
mistakes they did..


Links for all of this propaganda available??

I didn't think so.

Again it's a mis-informed, indoctrinated black man some people put on a pedestal in order to try to give some valdity to a bunch of non-sense!
None of your responses provide evidence. They are just more claims of "wrong", "stupid", "I am right".

Grab a dictionary, look up evidence. Also look up a supporting premise with logical arguments.

Here, I will respond with the same level of evidence you did.


"Your wrong!"

Can we now move on to the part where you actually supply documented evidence that supports your claims?

Is there a reason that we had to know he was a black minister? Did you think if you just put "minister speaks" no one would read it? I mean in the OP they make sure they tell us it's a black man before they even mention his name. I guess the fact that he's black and he doesn't agree with Obama is the preface of the thread.

As for him electrifying people and having a masterful delivery - that's a common trait for ministers.

Okay after reading his "speech" it sounds like his point is We the People need to take back our country because God said so. He basically took a 3rd Sunday sermon, boxed it up and topped it off with an American Flag bow.

Yes it was definately a small elite group of white men who crafted this document!
So, your esteemed Dr. May is wrong on this point.

These men may have believed they were divinely inspired and they may have been but the fact remains that they decided who would receive these rights.

you are going so far overboard with your claims it's pretty funny. You are making this a race and sexist issue when it clearly isn't. This man was not speaking for black men and women only, he was speaking for the citiziens of this country as a whole. Until you can see that, everything to you is wrong.
