Edwards Predicts Doom for African-American Males
Friday, September 28, 2007

Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards said if he isn’t elected president, the population of African-American males is likely to either wind up in prison or dead.

At an MTV/MySpace.com forum Thursday, Edwards responded to a question about inner-city kids partaking in violence by saying there was no “silver bullet” to fight the problem.

“We start with the president of the United States saying to America, ‘we cannot build enough prisons to solve this problem. And the idea that we can keep incarcerating and keep incarcerating — pretty soon we’re not going to have a young African-American male population in America. They’re all going to be in prison or dead. One of the two.”

You know, I do believe that I've found the person I don't want to vote for for president.

I should have realized this would flop here, since nobody in ND cares.  They've never seen a black person before.

I know.  It would only be a big deal if a Republican said it.

This is what makes me sad.  He should get just as much criticism for implying that all black people are criminals as Bush would if he implied that all black people are criminals.
