Why Trump Needs to Drain the Swamp

[BNIBoiler]

Guess what? Homes in black neighborhoods are worth less homes in areas where there is less crime; fewer drugs and less hate for crackers. That isn’t systemic racism, that is reality.

Dude you just showed your racial bias. You assumed that because it was a black family that it was in a black neighborhood where there is crime and drugs. The black family home was in an upscale subdivision where the homes values were north of one million dollars. This undervaluing homes by racist home appraisers happens often and for decades.

Because of cultural conditioning, in that Sanford & Son episode Fred wanted a white dentist because he thought that the white dentist was better trained. He thought the black dentist was trained through a correspondence school. It turned out that the white dentist that he wanted was trained through a correspondence course. The black dentist had superior training.

BNI, do you think that Sanford & Son and All In The Family are real life stories?

This is the difference between you and me. I watched that show live around 50 years ago, and I remember Redd not wanting a black doctor because, back then, a black doctor most likely got into medical school to fill a quota. Blacks knew this better than whites.

The correspondence school was to show humor to the audience how the white dentist got started at correspondence school and then city college, which was easy to get into and get a degree. Thus highlighting that the white doctor was comparable to Joe Biden's law degree. Where he did not graduate at the top of his class, did not go to the more prestigious University of Delaware, did not have a double major, was not on a full scholarship, and did not win an award. Again, forgive me if my facts are inaccurate, but you get the idea.

The black Dentist was very accomplished, about one-tenth as talented as Dr. Ben Carson, which is a high tribute and why I admire him,

Sanford and Son is my favorite sitcom. I saw that episode live as well. I also still watch the the reruns on tv now. I probably watched each episode at 30 times in the 50 or so years it’s been in showing reruns.

As far as black doctors, I know first hand about this as I’ve heard family members and white folks talk about this all my life. We, including blacks people are culturally conditioned that whites are superior and blacks are inferior. The manifestation of that is that black people are underestimated, undervalued, and marginalized. That is what Fred Sanford did in that episode. He undervalued the black dentist not knowing that he was more qualified than the white dentist.

As far as black doctors and quotas back in the day. There may have been a few that got into the predominantly white medical schools by affirmative action. However, once they get in, there ain’t no affirmative action when it comes to exams.
Nothing was given to them. Secondly, Because it was harder for blacks to get into the predominantly white medical schools back then, most black doctor attended a predominantly black medical school in Nashville, TN called Maharry Medical College.

You mentioned Dr. Ben Carson. You know he, Justice Clarence Thomas, Dr. Henry Louis Gates and 20 or so other black men got into Yale through a affirmative action program. Are they DEI hires since they got in through quotas. Due to Carson and Thomas’ political affiliation I don’t hear y’all say that they are DEI hires. But yet Gen Lloyd Austin with all of his accomplishments is a DEI hire. Go figure.

I used to listen to Redd Fox records, so naturally, I watched his show, Sandford and Sons. There was one scene where he had something serious, so he had to go to a Hospital. In walked a black doctor and asked for a doctor who was not a DEI hire.

Compare that to Carol O'Connor, who went off the wall with his show when a black woman doctor showed up but proved she was more than capable.

The bottom line is there is systemic racism, but starting in 2025, blacks have to realize they have to work a little harder to show that they are capable. Instead of seeing this as being a victim, they need to use this as motivation that they can overcome. This mentality needs to sweep the nation that, yes, there has been propaganda and political prosecution. Still, we as a nation must use this as motivation to clean up the graft and corruption, not as revenge or retribution.

By the way, I am sorry Gaetz stepped down. I think Trump is trying to put in good communicators who will blow the lid off of their department's bureaucracy, graft, and corruption while having experienced assistants to ensure they get the job done correctly and not make changes just for the sake of making change. In this case, I would love to have Bondy fortify Gaetz, but the bottom line is that I agree that she will do a great job.

I think minorities have to work harder to prove themselves because of the laws put in place to make it easier for them.
We need to get rid of the laws such as affirmative action.
There are plenty of minorities that are outstanding in their field.
They can stand on their own merit. Many have.

6 years ago I had a heart attack and was actually dead for 3 minutes and was shocked back to life.
After being shocked and in severe pain I looked up and a young colored nurse had saved my life.
I went to surgery to have my arteries cleaned and a black doctor performed the surgery.
I wasn't put under and I had a nice conversation with him as he was putting in my stints and cleaning my arteries.
And you know what, the last thing on my mind was the color of their skin.

Colored? Uh oh.

Anyway, a lot of people have switched to, even in emergency situations from a black doctor to a white doctor.

A lot of blacks did not want to be called black. As you know, there is still a lot of prejudice among the dark and light colors of blacks. Worse than that is the different shades of Indians. Many more blacks were enslaved by Muslims and taken to Asia than in the Americas.
