Jimmy Carter: White Americans cling to ‘feelings of superiority’ toward minorities

 By Douglas Ernst - The Washington Times - Friday, June 5, 2015

Former President Jimmy Carter told AARP Inc. during a recent interview that many Americans hold “feelings of superiority” toward minorities.

Mr. Carter spoke on a range of subjects with the magazine, including campaign spending and lobbyists, but he made a point to say that the U.S. still is lacking in terms of safeguarding civil rights.

“The recent publicity about mistreatment of black people in the judicial and police realm has been a reminder that the dreams of the civil rights movement have not been realized. […] Many Americans still have racist tendencies or feelings of superiority to people of color,” Mr. Carter told AARP, The Hill reported Thursday.

The former president added that the politics of the 1970s have changed in such a way that he would not get the level Republican support he enjoyed as the 39th president.

“There was harmony among congressmen when I was there, and I got just as much support from Republicans as I did from Democrats. I can’t imagine myself as a successful candidate today,” Mr. Carter said, The Hill reported.

The ONLY reason Jimmy Carter was elected in 1976 was because Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon.  And, as it turned out, Ford almost won anyway.

Carter couldn't get elected to anything today.

Jimmy's just doing his part to keep the race issue front and center.

He's a tool.

Jimmy's right, except that it's white Democrats who view blacks as inferior to the point they are incapable of even getting themselves an ID.

That, and some people thought he was a decent Christian man because he taught Sunday School. The phrase "wolf in sheep's clothing" comes to mind.

That is what the constantly do. Sowing dissatisfaction, resentment, and divisiveness, is what they do for a living. Plus, I think Carter always was a little 'off'. Now that he is 150 years old, it is only getting worse.

It is the Democrats who are utterly obsessed with race in everything they say and do. It is the Republicans who do not see race exclusively as the only factor that identifies who and what a person is.

Republicans want Harmony, fairness, and cooperation, with people of any race.
Democrats want what they call 'revolution', riots, and perpetual discord.

The Democrats are the KKK. They always were, and they still are.

Looks like the main issue of 2016 for the Democrats is going to be race baiting..

Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-W.Va., deceased)  just wants you to know that he agrees with Jimmy.
