I am a white anglo saxon/cherokeee indian. Blacks or any other ethnic group is not disenfranchised in the U. S. unleas they so choose to be. The past is the past. No one owes anyone anything except what they labor for or contract for anything else a person receives is a blesssing on top of the blessing you have already received by being born in the United States of America. I have served this nation miltarily and visited countless nations between N. AMERICA and Asia, going east, including the African continent and if any one person believes this great nation of Ours has disenfranchised you then float or fly to any other nation and then tell me how you think you have been so mistreated.
