Our second black President

John Kerry wants to be our second black President:

Speaking to the American Urban Radio Network, Kerry said Monday that he hoped to emulate former President Clinton in the eyes of blacks, the party's most loyal constituency and a solid source of support during his stretch of primary wins.

"President Clinton was often known as the first black president," Kerry said. "I wouldn't be upset if I could earn the right to be the second."

My prediction: he'll do a flip-flop when he reads Toni Morrison's New Yorker article in which she called Clinton our "first black President." The quote:

...white skin notwithstanding, this is our first black President. Blacker than any actual black person who could ever be elected in our children's lifetime. After all, Clinton displays almost every trope of blackness: single-parent household, born poor, working-class, saxophone-playing, McDonald's-and-junk-food-loving boy from Arkansas. And when virtually all the African-American Clinton appointees began, one by one, to disappear, when the President's body, his privacy, his unpoliced sexuality became the focus of the persecution, when he was metaphorically seized and bodysearched, who could gainsay these black men who knew whereof they spoke? The message was clear "No matter how smart you are, how hard you work, how much coin you earn for us, we will put you in your place or put you out of the place you have somehow, albeit with our permission, achieved. You will be fired from your job, sent away in disgrace, and--who knows?--maybe sentenced and jailed to boot. In short, unless you do as we say (i.e., assimilate at once), your expletives belong to us."

Yes, the foregoing describes John Kerry to a "T."

In 1998, David Horowitz eviscerated Toni Morrison's comments here. I visited Hot Springs AR a few months ago; see the post 'Summarizing Bill Clinton'.

We need a black president, for it would signal to those idiot masses that the state is at an end, they continuing to belive the face of a white president as a visual cue that "all is well". Fools! All is not well, America is on its death knell. Imagine 2008, millions of white TV watching hicks and suburbians finally ignoring what the president had to say, refusing to fight in his wars, shutting down their government sectors, with the still majority white military refusing to restore order? One can dream for a black president for 2008.

Anarchy is not leftist as popularly thought nor is it rightist, todays anarchists are indoctrinatied statist goons (state also includes all medium to indoctrinate: MTV, etc.)
