Uncle Ben?  quote:
"Uncle" was a common appellation used in the Southern United States to refer to older male Black slaves or servants.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Ben's I hardly know anything about Ben Carson. But if decent people will serve under Trump that's better than only crooks and slimeballs serving under him. So I'd rather not disdain the (apparently) better people for being willing to serve. IP: Logged |

Better? Endorsing a guy he doesn't like in exchange for an illegal (bribe) if undefined "position in govt"? Maybe Carson is exposing Trump to disqualify him but I don't see anything "better" about him outside the operating theatre. And he looks like he's got an opiod problem.I used Uncle deliberately because that is how he is acting.Yesman to the front runner who insulted him humiliatingly.. IP: Logged |

What exactly is illegal about what he did? This happens all the time...trading endorsements for positions. Why on earth would that ever be illegal?  quote:

Before asking what's legal and what's not, it would be nice if one took the time to read the constitution. 🙄------------------

Uncle is a term used by black People to describe those who kowtow to the White image of nice, subservient blacks. Racist, maybe, but not in the way you may meanUncle Ben's Rice perfectly lends itself to that concept. A man who openly admits how much benefits and affirmative action got him where he is, yet chatacterizes blacks as crippled by both. ..this year's token black candidate, who admires and will Serve the man who called him a paedophile and more..because it "worked"... and whose onstage appearance often Looks more like he's nodding off than competing. So yes, Uncle Ben, along with Uncle Thomas, who despises civil rights while benefiting from them, including the right to marry across racial lines. The term Scab would equally apply. . IP: Logged |

Faith it is what it is. Carson claimed that Obama was not a "real black"...just like Limbaugh. Do you think maybe he is a racist himself? Or do you exempt all black people from that category? He has benefitted all his life from being a token black. I wouldn't blame him for taking the opportunities opened up by affirmative action and benefits if he didn't propose to deny them to those coming up behind him. But you continually misunderstand me so no surprise here. But while I see him as a man who willingly takes the role ascribed by the White paradigm, it is you who made it a racial issue. I call him Uncle Ben because Uncle Ben was used to sell rice via stereotype. IP: Logged |
