CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MAY 11, 2021
BARACK OBAMA – COPIED BY JOE BIDEN – SAID “THERE IS NO RED OR BLUE AMERICA. THERE IS ONLY THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
IF ONLY. DIVISION SELLS. THAT’S WHY WE ARE NOW SEEN AS PARTS OF GROUPS, GROUPS THAT CONSTANTLY FIGHT EACH OTHER.
WE ARE AMERICANS, BLACK, WHITE, ASIAN, GAY, STRAIGHT AND ONE OF DOZENS OF GENDER IDENDITIES, SEPARATED BY HYPHENS. NOWHERE ON THIS LIST IS THE SINGLE WORD “AMERICAN.”
I’VE SEEN HOW THIS WORKS FROM THE INSIDE. IF WE SEE OURSELVES AS ONE — OUT OF MANY — HOW DO THE FUNDRAISERS AND POLITICIANS MAKE MONEY? IF PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED, HOW CAN ANYONE RUN ON AN ISSUE? HOW MANY TIMES DOES EDUCATION AND NOW SYSTEMIC RACISM COME UP IN POLITICAL DISCOURSE? THERE IS NEVER ENOUGH MONEY FOR EDUCATION. NEITHER CAN WE SOLVE RACISM BECAUSE THE LEFT CLAIMS IT IS IN OUR DNA. THEIR SOLUTION IS PROPAGANDA IN OUR SCHOOLS AND MORE SPENDING ON PROGRAMS THAT HAVEN’T WORKED, BUT KEEP MINORITY VOTERS ON THE POLITICAL PLANTATION.
MY IDENTITY ISN’T IN MY RACE OR GENDER. IT’S NOT EVEN IN MY TEMPORARY CITIZENSHIP IN THIS COUNTRY. JESUS OF NAZARETH GIVES ME MY IDENTITY. I BELONG TO HIM AND HE TO ME. I’M CAL THOMAS.
