Didn't hear anything of real substance. Why do you think that video said something important?

She seems like a very smart person, yes. But, this isn't what we're talking about. We're talking about how two kids, that are exactly the same except for their skin color, can be treated so differently. That's the problem.

She has no problem with nationalism. Well, I guess that means she's no history buff....
“The president is a nationalist, which is not at all the same thing as a patriot. A nationalist encourages us to be our worst, and then tells us that we are the best. A nationalist, “although endlessly brooding on power, victory, defeat, revenge,” wrote Orwell, tends to be “uninterested in what happens in the real world.” Nationalism is relativist, since the only truth is the resentment we feel when we contemplate others. As the novelist Danilo Kiš put it, nationalism “has no universal values, aesthetic or ethical.” A patriot, by contrast, wants the nation to live up to its ideals, which means asking us to be our best selves. A patriot must be concerned with the real world, which is the only place where his country can be loved and sustained. A patriot has universal values, standards by which he judges his nation, always wishing it well—and wishing that it would do better. Democracy failed in Europe in the 1920s, ’30s, and ’40s, and it is failing not only in much of Europe but in many parts of the world today. It is that history and experience that reveals to us the dark range of our possible futures. A nationalist will say that “it can’t happen here,” which is the first step toward disaster. A patriot says that it could happen here, but that we will stop it."

Hilarious.
You leftists are all the same. You just take things out of context and smear people based on lies.
Why dont you chicken ***** dare to play the full context of the discussion?
Ill let Candace Explain for you.
Starts at 6:00
By the way. You people are disgusting the way you smear and slander people.
Funny how now you dont recognize her color and gender. Now you dont want to help. Now you want to oppress.
We all know who the real oppressors are. The Democrats who founded slavery America and the KKK.
Watching her honest opinions is out of context?
What's stopping you?
Yeah, she didn't really explain her comment about Hitler. She later revised it, but that's not an explanation.
You mean, by presenting a clip of what she said?
Presenting a clip of what she said is oppression?
Glad to see you no longer support conservatives.

Haha.
Even though I dont I agree with you, I like you One Brow. Your effort is commendable. I mean it sincerely. I honestly do try try to view it from your perspective. But until my logic legitimately shifts on this I cant come over to that side.
Most of these other people will call you names and put you on ignore if you dont agree. Its pretty pathetic.
