The Progressive Balkanization of America plan.
It is working. It is being done purposefully because the fools think they can control it. "Compassionate Progressivism".... Idiots.

Teddy Roosevelt knew the deal:
A hundred years ago, President Teddy Roosevelt said, "The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing as a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities."
Following that wisdom, the USA immigrated 175,000 people annually from compatible countries from 1924 through 1964. They assimilated by speaking English and became a part of our fabric of life. They met the criteria for religion, culture and similarities with America.
“Nineteenth-century democracy needs no more complete vindication for its existence than the fact that it has kept for the white race the best portions of the new world’s surface.”
A perfectly stupid race can never rise to a very high plane; the negro, for instance, has been kept down as much by lack of intellectual development as by anything else; but the prime factor in the preservation of a race is its power to attain a high degree of social efficiency.
“I don’t go so far as to think that the only good Indians are dead Indians, but I believe nine out of 10 are, and I shouldn’t like to inquire too closely into the case of the 10th.”

Krazy,
No it is not. That is your imagination hard at work, in my opinion.
But for some reason one person keeps trying to bait/troll/and redirect the thread to abortion.
Anyway, it is not an attempt to race bait.
I was complimenting the mayor on
not crying white flight
but rather focus on it as a positive
for the city.
I also focused on the fact
that under long term
Democrat Party governance,
violence has increased,
homicides have increased,
and there are fewer and fewer jobs.
I too live in a very diverse neighborhood,
and it is a great neighborhood and
all my neighbors are lovely people.
Everyone is employed because I live in
an area with an extremely low employment rate.
Incidentally, ruled (governed) by Republicans.

Abortion? I didn't say anything about abortion in this thread. In fact, you've quoted every word I've said in this thread.
So NOW it's a partisan hit piece and should be in the political mud-pit.

Then why include it in the response to me? You know what, I don't even care. I'm leaving this thread. Have fun with your quote mines.

It's just a stupid speech. I didn't even know there were 62 languages in existence, and furthermore, how in the world do teachers possibly adequately teach children when they don't speak the same language.
According to the most recent census of 2001, there are 1365 rationalised mother tongues, 234 identifiable mother-tongues and 122 major languages.[7] Of these, 29 languages have more than a million native speakers, 60 have more than 100,000 and 122 have more than 10,000 native speakers.[34] There are a few languages like Kodava and Tulu that do not have a script but have a group of native speakers in Coorg (Kodagu) and Dakshina Kannada.
Also, he's proud to have a city that takes in people "who are not welcome in other places." Why are they not welcomed elsewhere? Who are they?
Just a really silly speech saying that things are pretty chaotic in Kansas City, Kansas.
Formation of the Progressive ("Bull Moose") Party
Once his defeat as the GOP nominee was probable, Roosevelt announced that he would "accept the progressive nomination on a progressive platform and I shall fight to the end, win or lose". At the same time, Roosevelt prophetically said, "My feeling is that the Democrats will probably win if they nominate a progressive". After two weeks at the GOP convention, Roosevelt asked his followers to leave the hall, and they moved to the Auditorium Theatre. Then Roosevelt, along with key allies such as Pinchot and Albert Beveridge created the Progressive Party
