Equal Rights, Equal Opportunity, Equal Outcome, or Something Else? Racial politics in today's America.

President Obama recently signed an Executive Order "White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for African Americans." You can read about it at:

I happen the believe this is a good thing, although I disagree with Pres Obama on almost everything. The only solution to perpetual poverty and crime in Black America is education. Until our nation provides AND African Americans avail themselves of a good education, our nation will continue down the path we now are on -- an increasingly illiterate, ill-educated, socialist entitlement state.

With that as the foundation, could any modern Caucasian president sign a similar order that gave whites special consideration? When will we as a nation and society end the political correctness that not only prevents us from solving our problems, but prevents us from even discussing them? What do you think?

The problem with doing something like that is the President has now opened the door for more inequality. He is in effect saying. Black people you are stupid and need more education so here it is. Why not instead make the education bill available to everyone that is in a lower income bracket. Why just black people? What about all the other people who are in similar situations that would love an education and would be productive members of society with it? We need to eliminate any separation of the races if we are ever going to eradicate racial bullshit. If you think about it all the President is doing is now taking anyone that will benefit from this program and MAKING THEM DEPENDENT ON THE GOVERNMENT.
