And I don't see any mindlessmedia "racist" outrage directed at Oprah for also uttering a controversial blunt truth:
Of course the problem is not solved. As long as people can be judged by the color of their skin, the problem’s not solved. As long as there are people who still… And there’s a whole generation — I said this for apartheid South Africa, I said this for my own community in the South — there are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die.
I will agree 100% with antiTrumpgullibles that it is truly refreshing to consider Oprah as a candidate. A liberal with charisma and an actual functioning brain. Don't say much for the rest of the demwit party's shipoffools tho - nutsonancy, cryinchuck, pocohontas, crazybernie, madmaxine oh my
An oldwhiteguy utters a controversial blunt truth and the mindlessmedia dives deep into more tiresome, "RACIST"? Is Haiti not a country full of blacks living in a "shithole"?
In this case he is not an oldwhiteguy but the POTUS and he should be offering solutions for people who live in shithole countries rather than threatening to cut off aid to them.
RNsidersbuying, don't recall thinking of either "shithouse" or Haiti while creating my post, so your reply was totally irrelevant to mine. Trump's history is steeped in racism. Your ignoring that suggests you accept that he is a racist.
If you want to talk about responsibility over decades for the situation in Haiti today you have to do some reading.
Look to exploitative international aid, trade policies for a start.
And to deal with some of your conservative worse behavior too.
The Clintons Didn’t Screw Up Haiti Alone. You Helped.
Trump has turned Haiti into the new symbol of Bill and Hillary’s crookedness. If only things were that simple.

Trump, probably unwittingly, submerged himself in some relatively recent chapters of that history at the Little Haiti Cultural Center. His host was Georges Saati, a wealthy Lebanese-Haitian industrialist whose family backed the brutal 20th-century dictatorships of François and Jean-Claude Duvalier and whose far-right faction helped foment the violent overthrow of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 2004. Trump was also treated to a speech by Bernard Sansaricq, a radical right-wing ex-Haitian legislator whom the Los Angeles Times once called the “self-proclaimed president of Haiti’s Senate” and who collaborated with the military junta that ruled during Aristide’s first exile in the 1990s, following a coup carried out during the George H.W. Bush administration by former Duvalierists on the CIA payroll. Trump was so moved that this week, his staff published another statement by Sansaricq on its website.
Both wealthy Haitians openly loathe Bill Clinton, who ordered the U.S. invasion that put down the junta and restored Aristide to power, for a time. Sansaricq, who long ago left Haiti and ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Congress as a Republican in 2010 and 2012, repeated nonsensical, Breitbart-esque claims about “the whole world” having given “billions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation for the Haitians” (false: The Clinton Foundation has raised about $30 million in connection with Haiti and was at no point a general clearinghouse for post-quake relief money) and promising Trump the Haitian American community’s support if he will “ask Hillary Clinton to disclose the audit of all the money they have stolen from Haiti.”
Trump nodded thoughtfully. “I didn’t understand,” he said, “now I understand it.”
He didn’t. I know, because I’ve spent years looking into what’s really gone on in Haiti.

The Clintons didn’t create the world we live in; they just know how to navigate it better than most of us do. If we want it to change, we have to change it. And it seems clear that electing a strongman leader who turns to putschists for advice on the developing world and who has never shied away from making money by working with corrupt regimes isn’t the answer. Changing a system that operates with millions of people and trillions of dollars will take more than shunting all the evils of empire onto one or two personalities—not when we benefit from them so eagerly and almost never change ourselves when it counts. Pretending otherwise is just a way to let ourselves off the hook, too. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2016/09/the_truth_about_the_clintons_and_haiti.html
