True, imbeciles can take comfort, from their unfortunate condition.
A security blanket of mindlessness.

There's one less hurdle to stop them.
Thanks to the U.S. of A. democratically electing a man to be President, who happens to be black.
A small, but significant step forward.
As witnessed by all, but the most blind.

I am not saying he hasn't shown a whole generation how to achieve what ever gaols they set .. i disagree with ya on where you said he has improved race relations .
America is about as democratic as this country & you will find that most western countries are the same .. as we have seen with the EU
Lets hope that it does provide a step in the right direction cause they need it.

Simple algebra, ain't it. Two negatives etc. .... that's about all I got from Gobbin (I think that would be E. J. Owen )

You can't agree the President's election has inspired a whole generation of black youth, who now believe that there's no racial barrier to their ambitions, and yet disagree that this small step forward isn't a positive move, in regards to race relations.
Well I suppose you can, if you really are a bit dim.
In which case wasting time, constantly explaining the same, simple point, endlessly, becomes rather pointless.
To put it simply.
It's a small, but good thing.
Like when they stopped people paying a shiiling, to go in and stare at people like you, locked away in Bedlam.

But he wasn't a Gobbin.
Born in Wales.
Didn't even live above the lamp.
You AGS lads.
So sloppy.
Our masters were given much more accurate...and cruel nicknames.
I thought he was called Winky? Was he Gobbin as well?

Show us some evidence then to back up your claims that " he has improved " race relations in the states and around the world .. you have linked 1 article which proves nothing
Dont take all day eh! .. I want to see evidence of your claims

A step in the right direction & claiming race relation worldwide have improved are not the same! .. I am seeing the American flag being burnt on a daily bases throughout the middle east , do you call that improvement ?
NDAA .. Patriot Act , Top President is that Mr Obama

Waste of time.
When you've shown absolutely no comprehension, about what you've supposedly read.
Go and play with the others, in the chavvy threads.
They're more on your level in there.
