Perhaps you should volunteer to become a moderator and specialize in keeping a thread on topic. I didn't change the subject and find it disingenuous for you to conclude what you concluded above in bold. I clearly stated I knew the path to success, or greater success using a quote:I always knew what the right path was. Without exception, I knew, but I never took it. You know why? It was too damn hard. All young men or women can look in newspapers and see positions for engineers to CEO's of large companies and recognize that these positions are possible if you take the right path regardless of race. I am successful but I have the ability to be much more successful had I chosen the path to do so... the choice was personal and had nothing to do with race but rather priorities... my priorities were were getting in girls pants, I found that much more interesting than spending so many hours preparing for a high income job.

When debating either black people or white liberals on any subject it seems that someone will bring up my need to accept that black people are "unfortunate" because white people made them that way generations ago. This is the position of the Democratic Party and the mindset of the Black community "in my mind". Clearly, Afro Americans are more conservative as a group than those white members of the Democratic Party that labels them progressive. Clearly, those Afro Americans that fail to succeed in broken neighborhoods are the result of the Democratic Party holding them down and weakening them by labeling them "unfortunate". This FACT is as clear as the nose on your face when you see other races than white progress as a group ahead of the Afro American group.

Personally, as a member of the white tribe that created America I prefer America to reflect the white tribe's founding values and culture. I don't want America to become Hispanic, Korean, Vietnamese, Muslim, Black or any other flavor because the superior Western European brains created America... the other cultures with lesser developed brains invited in could have did the same thing in their origin cultures but they didn't. This is not a white supremacists statement but a statement of fact... the white tribe had a superior culture then and it still does today. I think the best complement for any citizen of another race can make is to assimilate and reflect the proven superior culture and not demand an inferior culture as a standard. Hispanic, Korean, Vietnamese, Muslim, Black or any other flavors should not demand white people adjust to their culture but the other way around since the facts prove the standard of the culture was best of all cultures in the world.

So, no, I do not find successful black people in higher positions than me as an insult but rather a complement. If black people become successful in America equal to white people then that is a good thing because it will be very easy to see that had that same black person remained in Africa he/she would not have. It is a complement to the white race that Afro Americans are at a higher level than African Africans.

If you really want the moderator job then go back and re-read who changed the subject and you'll find it was not me.
