race?, class? or, BOTH??
Listen, carefully to TRUMP's "psycho-babble"! Watch where he GOES!! His STRATEGY for "winning" the Presidency in 2016 is in the open! The Global Economy has killed the old BLACK/WHITE Model for governing the United States; begun more than 200 years ago by our Founders. TRUMP recognizes that it is being replaced by a New Model that is based on Economic Class, in which Race is encapsulated inside Class, through "Gentrification". New Orleans and Detroit provide examples.
The Founding Slave Masters, it is clear, preferred the company of their Slaves to that of the White Trash that served as their Overseers. The Overseer Klass was given "leeway" to satisfy their limited economic and ego needs at the expense of the Blacks. When the Civil War collapsed Slavery in favor of a Jim Crow System of enslavement, by economics and Class, the MASTER CLASS fled the country for Europe and Latin America. View Band of Angels, (1957), and you see the roles of Clark Gable and Sidney Poitier demonstrate that part of our history.
As the JIM CROW Model was being instituted, Crackers from Europe flooded the United States, doubling our population in the thirty years between 1890 and 1920. I list in my 1972 Masters Thesis, American Values in Black and White, (UNM), by order of rank:
(1) American (white) (7) German
(2) Canadian (8) Finn
(3) English (9) Italian
(4) French (10) Polish
(5) Irish (11) Greek
(6) Swedish (12) Czech
Social Distance Data: (1926) Bogardus.
American Indians ranked below the Japanese, Turks and Russians below the "Filipino"; and Jews below Negros. Over time this measure was taken again (1939) and (1952) and the Social Movement of the various groups changed slightly.
Just as JIM CROW succeeded in pitting lighter-skinned and more wealthy Blacks against each other; TRUMP is showing amazing success at pitting whites who were Middle Class at the time Reagan was President, against those whites who are more wealthy in this time of Big Banks and Technology Fortunes. TRUMP "barnstarms" the Old South and places where the more wealthy whites escaped to; pulling on the "heart strings" of fans of ELVIS, the KLAN, and lower-class white musicians, actors, and TV "Celebrities". He knows that most whites; who have lost their economic standing as the wages of the World come down in the face of foreign labor and Robotics; will NEVER regain their former, "Archie Bunker" wealth! Angry whites, and their relatives, know that too. They're PISSED! TRUMP is "cleaning up"!
Stay Vigilant! A future in which Crackers continue to inflict violence and exploitation on Non-whites, and, also on the RICH; among both Whites and Non-Whites; will be a much different, and less safe "Amerika". TRUMP and his backers will be as happy as "Pigs in Sh*t"!!
