POLITICS: Ron 's so called racist quotes

[Guest guest]

Thought ya'll would find this interesting. One guy says the two racist

quotes are from President Lincoln.

" The first quote comes from an 1857 speech given in Springfield, IL. In that

speech, Lincoln went on to outline how he wanted " separation of the races "

to be achieved; by deporting African-Americans back to Africa. " Let us be

brought to believe that it is morally right to transfer the African to his

native clime, " he exhorted his audience, " and we shall find a way to do it,

however great the task may be. "

The second quote, from 1862, indicates that Lincoln held the same

separationist views after becoming President. On that occasion, he took

pains to inform " the first ever delegation of black leaders to visit the

White House " how much his race suffered from their presence.

The newsletter article's author - who may or may not be Ron - comments

that Lincoln's racist " views make Duke look like a member of the

NAACP. " Significantly, he disagrees emphatically with those views: " Should

we follow Lincoln here?... Of course not. "
