All Inexperienced, Incompetent, and Unqualified Americans Should be Proud -- One of Their Own Was Elected President of the US

...white people contacting me to say that I should be proud to see a black man become president. Could there be a comment that is more condescending, more insulting, than that? If I believed that in America a black man could not be president, then I would be proud to see any black man elected president. But because I always have believed that nothing in America prevents a black man from becoming president or anything else he wants to be, I can be embarrassed, not proud, to see someone as unqualified and inexperienced as Obama become president. _STL

Affirmative action -- promoting the unqualified to jobs above their capacity -- has done it again. Affirmative action and the Peter Principle work hand in glove to make sure the gunk rises to the top. Too bad for those who have to suffer through the consequences. But if clever PR can get a total zero like Obama elected president, think what it could do for you!

...henceforth no black man in America may be called unqualified for any job that he might seek, no matter his prior education or experience level. Want to be a nuclear scientist but lack a Ph.D. in physics? If the applicant is a black man, it's no problem. Just offer hope to the profession and promise change from all those stuffy theorems that have given the discipline its structure over the years, and you're in.

...Jackie Robinson, the first black man in modern-day major league baseball...was the right man with the right combination of talent, temperament and character at the right time to be successful for that important "first." Obama? An empty suit who will fail. _STL

Eventually, modern humans will grow beyond the faux multicultural fascism that spawned affirmative action and other "feel good doing the wrong thing" affectations of pseudo-ethics. In order for the current reigning paradigm of "elevating the incompetent" to be overthrown, however, entire generations may have to die off. That will simply depend upon how tired Atlas grows before he decides to shrug. Who is John Galt?
