That's pretty cool except for the part when I didn't say that

Well...that's what it sounded like. Maybe you should clarify.

I'm saying I really don't have an opinion on it because as I have previously mentioned, if you have never adopted and unwanted child or assisted in the adoption of an unwanted child in your opinion carries no weight

And thats your view on it. It doesn't change the fact that it is morally wrong to abort children according to the Bible. Again,you cant make people take responsibility for other peoples choices.

Humm hasn't done bad for himself for being such a moron. There's hope for the rest of us then.

If Trump were black you'd be called a bigot.

Obama is half white but identifies himself as black. I am fine with that. He obviously feels his life experiences were more black oriented.
Does that make him biased?

Love the critique from a man who admittedly couldn't even support even one baby given up for adoption about a man whom thousands depend on.

The true Obama legacy will be that another democrat president will not be elected for another 100 years. This is truly one man who lived down to all the expectations that ethnic bias could expect.

I'm not surprised but I am disappointed.

I think you are a little confused.....Trump was a Democrat for years..... now he's a democrat in Republican clothing.... Reality TV will now be living in the White house too bad it will be too sick to be real entertainment. Because he has now become our reality as a nation.... What a sicko.. Not all directed at you Roger...just happened to be where the post landed..

PBS is well known to be liberal,I wouldn't expect them to say anything else. But let me share Mike Rowes Facebook answer to the "uneducated Trump supporters" charge.


Albert Samos writes…The media has recently been stating that Donald Trump's key supporters didn’t graduate from college. They constantly refer to these people as "uneducated white men.” As an electrical contractor who happens to be a white guy with six employees but no college, I find this vaguely offensive and somewhat confusing. What do you think of the media characterizing people this way?
Hi Albert
If the media is referring to Trump supporters who happen to be male caucasians suffering from a lack of knowledge brought about by an absence of formal or practical instruction, than I guess “uneducated white men” is a fair description. However, if the Trump supporters in question are being dubbed “uneducated,” simply because they didn’t earn a four-year degree, I’d say the media’s slip is showing.

Let’s assume that Donald Trump is indeed popular among white men who didn’t graduate from college. The first question is, so what? Is this information newsworthy? Obviously, thousands of journalists think it is. To your point, the words “uneducated white men” now appear in hundreds of articles about Trump. But if this is truly important information, where were these reporters four years ago? In the last election, an even greater majority of African-American males who voted for President Obama had no college on their resume. Maybe I missed it, but I don’t recall any headlines or articles that delved into Obama’s popularity among “uneducated black men.”

If the media didn’t care about the lack of college among black men supporting Obama, why do they care so much about the lack of college among white men supporting Trump? Moreover, when exactly did a lack of college become synonymous with a lack of education?

There are many ways to become educated that don’t involve the purchase of a diploma. Why would the media ignore thousands of apprenticeship programs, on-the-job-training opportunities, and all the other alternative educational options that have led so many people into so many successful careers? The answer is obvious - many in the press are looking for ways to impact the election. If a biased reporter can get away with labeling Trump supporters who didn’t graduate from college as “uneducated,” he can simultaneously imply that any ballot cast for Trump is the hallmark of an “uneducated” voter.

If you’re only “vaguely offended” by this Albert, maybe it’s because you’ve seen it all before. Never mind the fact that you run a successful business. Never mind your years of training, your skill, your knowledge, your diligence, your commonsense, and every other quality that allowed you to succeed. In this political climate, none of that matters. These days, you’re just another white guy who never made it to college, voting for the “wrong candidate.”

It’s impossible for me to have this conversation and not think of my grandfather. Pop never made it to college. In fact, he never made it out of the 7th grade. But he never stopped learning or studying. He started as an electrician’s helper, became an apprentice, a journeyman, a master electrician, a contractor, and then a small business owner. Later, as an electrical inspector for the state, he was responsible for guaranteeing the safety of hundreds of buildings in Maryland, as well as all the rides on the carnival midway at the State Fair. He was a modest man of real intelligence, admired and respected by everyone who knew him. But today, he’d be right there with you, Albert - swelling out the ranks of “uneducated white men.”

Forget the election for a moment, and the medias role in it. The issue of what it means to be “educated” in 2016 has far greater implications. Right now, 5.8 million jobs currently exist that employers can’t seem to fill. Meanwhile, outstanding student loans will eclipse 1.3 trillion dollars this year, college tuition continues to rise, and once again, a new crop of deeply indebted college graduates will enter the workforce with none of the necessary skills to fill those open positions.
Closing the skills gap and making college more affordable is beyond my pay grade, but it seems like we could start by reminding the media that a college degree is not the only path to success. It’s well and good to promote higher education, but it’s crazy to suggest the most expensive road to enlightenment is the best path for the most people. And it’s equally nuts to pressure our kids to keep borrowing vast sums of money to become “educated” in careers that no longer exist.

On Dirty Jobs, I met hundreds of highly trained, highly intelligent, highly knowledgeable citizens who went on to prosper without the benefit of a university experience. These people should be congratulated, not used a pawns by reporters with a political agenda. I don’t care who you’re voting for - your college diploma - or your lack thereof - has nothing to do with the wisdom of your choice.

Anyway Albert, that’s a long way of saying you have every reason to be “vaguely offended and somewhat confused.” The media has minimized your work, insulted your intelligence, and ignored your contribution to civilized life. Try not to take it personally. Just keep doing what you do. Run your business. Vote your conscience. Keep the lights on for the rest of us. And the next time some hack writer impersonating a journalist attacks a candidate by calling their supporters “uneducated” - simply because their base of knowledge isn’t memorialized on a sheepskin - send them this picture and tell ‘em their slip is showing, and one lousy hatchet job deserves another...

Do you know who else is "uneducated"? Lets look deeper...

Jennifer Lopez-After high school, Lopez attended Baruch College for one semester. However, she soon quit her pursuit of a higher education to pursue her singing and dancing dreams.

Madonna- attended the University of Mich.School of music,and dropped out

Beyonce-did not attend college

Jay Z- never attended college

Bon Jovi- never went to college

Demi Lovato- never went to college and took home schooling in high school

Sarah Silverman- attended NYU for a year and dropped out

Ellen De GeGeneres- attended college for one year and dropped out

Katy Perry- did not go to college

Lady Gaga-went to college for a year,then dropped out

De Niro- dropped out of high school at 16

Miley Cyrus- did not attend college.

Please tell me again how Trump supporters are uneducated?

Statistics don't lie. Neither do YouTube videos, coincidentally. Y'know, all those ones with the dumb hicks screaming for a white America? Besides, singing talent a good presidential candidate does not make. A law degree from Harvard and a lifelong political career? More apt.

I think you've also confused me with someone who gives a hoot about whether or not celebrities went to college or not. These are people who care more about image and fame than substance and logic. Singing hardly requires a master's degree, and there's plenty that those people say and do that I disagree with. For instance, I think Miley Cyrus is an unapologetic hussie, and an extremely bad example to young women. I think Lady Gaga has been drinking the Feminist Flint Water far too often. I think Beyonce and Jay-Z are exploitative and corrupt. Madonna? A copyright thief and a fraud. Bon Jovi? A man with a sandpaper personality.

Regardless of all that, Trump supporters are still the most uneducated out of the supporters of all the major candidates. It changes nothing.

And we have a winner!!!! The statement of moko was purely socialist, filled with lies and error which all go hand in hand. Wishing I never read such an myopic diatribe.

Sure. Looking after your own poor, hungry, thirsty and homeless is exactly lies, error: the terrible socialist devil. Oh the horror!

I know right. I always knew Obama was a loser but what he is doing on his way out the door is astounding. I wonder if his last act in the white house will be to pee in all the plants and break all the windows.

And take all the light bulbs with him

 

[JesusLives]

Obama wasn't the greatest but by far not the worst... the worst would be George W bush

So far.....I think the worst is coming down the pike....pretty soon...

 

[Spurgeoncy]

If he doesn't vacate at 1200 on January 20, 2017..... he will see chaos.

He'll probably be late out of the door by a few hours, he is that incompetent

 

[Spurgeoncy]

Barry Sotero's current status as a human being is nothing more than the culmination of a dope smoking, entitled, self important ideologue with no practical experience in life. His character and mindset is that of a common criminal. I knew it the day I laid my eyes on him.

Steady on the ideologue.

Just your average common or garden gay bozo.

Quote " roughly the same percentage who don't pass their high school diplomas "

So are you saying everyone who voted Trump is an uneducated person?


Quote "Look, compared to Trump, most of Europe and the rest of the world see Obama as a saint."

Oh Im sure they do. Europe leans more liberal in their beliefs,so thats no surprise. How about we wait and see what happens when he gets in office.If he doesn't take the country in the direction the people want to see Americans will vote him out in four years.

Are we really going to have to put up with it for that long?..... Blond goes to store to buy new 4 year count down calendar....

 

[Spurgeoncy]

If the United States remains in combat in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria until the end of Mr. Obama’s term — a near-certainty given the president’s recent announcement that he will send 250 additional Special Operations forces to Syria — he will leave behind an improbable legacy as the only president in American history to serve two complete terms with the nation at war.

 

[JesusLives]

Well, thank you for calling us ignorant and stupid to those of us who voted Trump. Just so you know, the people that I have been in contact with who fully supported Trump are nowhere near stupid...in fact they are highly educated some have law degrees and a few are doctors, but a higher education has nothing to do with why they voted for who they voted for....it comes down to the brass tax (brass tacks). We don't kill babies and we want jobs brought back to the US to boost our economy and our government to be held accountable for the state our nation is in, which is turmoil. Trump was not afraid to talk about correcting these things. If we are stupid because of all of that, I'm okay with it because I can sleep well at night knowing our country is in better hands with Trump.

Since I'm so dumb and uneducated it's probably a good time to breathe, don't you think?

Fixed it for ya....sorry sometimes the English police comes out in me....


The phrase get down to brass tacks (not brass tax) is an Americanism dating from the 19th century. In the idiom, brass tacks means (1) the essentials, or (2) the basic facts, so to get down to brass tacks is to focus on the essentials. The phrase's exact derivation is unknown, though there are a few theories.Nov 2, 2015
