He if it was acceptable for Biden to say that, or similar, about Obama then it's perfectly acceptable for H H to say that about Carson. Why are you always bringing up the color of his skin anyway? What difference does it make he's a man and he's well educated and qualified for the position.

If you are capable, then do a search on all my posts and you will find that I have NEVER before broached the subject of skin color!  :rant:

Good businessmen don't repay their creditors?

Those creditors took the risk when they gave Trump the money.  A business chapter 11, merely allows the business to negotiate a new deal.  Giving them more time to pay back the debt. He repaid much of it, and some cases, he gave up ownership to many of those creditors....he broke no laws.  This is something that is done by many good business men often.

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Why would he not allow his grades to be released? What does it really take to be a community organizer? What kind of people has he associated himself with? What were the politics of his family who were a big infulence on his beliefs? What were the political beliefs of his father whom he admired and wanted to be like? How did he spend his high school years, which I previously provided, (in his own words), proof of and would that type of behaviour have lead to his being able to get a scholorship?

Where in the hell do you get this stuff from?

Obama barely knew his father except in dreams, or nightmares. He spent time with the old man only once, when he was 10, for an unsatisfying month.

Why would George W. Bush not allow his grades to be released? (And don't say he did - they were leaked out by someone else.)

Few modern presidents have released their transcripts, nor are they under any obligation to do so, since these records are protected by federal privacy laws. Not releasing them does not mean the person has something to hide. Second, many conspiracy theories have been found on the internet about Mr. Obama, but there is no proof to any of them. Regarding his college grades, there is something that we do know: his grades from Harvard Law School. It is public record, and was reported in the press of that time (1991) that he graduated in the top 10% of his class and received academic honors (magna cum laude).

Anyone can say they graduated with honors and if he did what was the problem with releasing those grades? Show me the actual grades that were released not just that it was "reported that he graduated in the top 10%". I want "imperical evidence" that it is so. Obama's grades were locked up so they couldn't be leaked and he paid a huge sum of money to make sure of it. Why would he do that if he indeed graduated with honors? He should have been proud of it and wanted people to see those grades and put a stop to the rumors.

Have you read either one? Can you quote passages (with links) to prove your point?

I did and you had some smart crack and name calling to do about it so, no, I will not go to the library and do it all over again. I even showed where certain things were removed from the revised editions. I checked out both the book and the audio cd of each and posted copies of the book pages as well as clips from the audio cd. It was after that I said never again will I go to the trouble of researching like that and I won't, you do it.

You can find the full text of both versions online. I'll wait for you to show me the passage where he admired his father so much.
