From "Conquistador" to Cowboy"??
As the President prepares to travel to Mexico for a few days, we all have an opportunity to learn what the malignant Right means, when they say "he's not one of us!". Since 2000, we've seen Mexico move from Fox, to Calderon, to Pena Nieto. This visit opens a "time tube" through which we can look back 500 years to that "C" word, Conquistador; and the companion "C" word, Concubine! From Cortez and Malinche, over the ensuing 500 years to the cowboys in our old west, our history is that of the European Male, and his roles in that part of our planet we now call "The Americas".
Starting in Mexico, around 1530, when the Catholic Church devised chattel slavery, we have seen this half-planet suffer the abuses of European Males, ranging from conquistadors, to pirates, to "explorers", to trappers, to Mountain-men, to miners, to planters, to overseers, to farmers, and cowboys. All of these episodes of white-male emigration to the "new world" boosted the creation of what we now see as "Mestizaje" or "mestizo" (s) -- now the fastest growing group of people in the new world. This is because almost none of these men brought white women with them; for a period of more than 150 years. Because of rising interests in agriculture and grazing to replace initial interests in mining, and European expulsion of criminals and religious dissidents from Catholic Christianity, these white males, to include Catholic clergy, interbred with native women. Once their chattel slavery system grew, they also began interbreeding with African females (for fun and profit). Mestizos in the 21st century include people whose color ranges from damn-near-white, to that of the darkest African. Mestizos speak either Spanish or English, or both.
Mexico, the incubator of all of this, (check out Hildalgo and Allende and the cause of the first Mexican Revolution against the Gauchupines), has a fascinating history. That history is the reason the United States has always treated that country as "Not Canada", and "our backyard". It can be argued that European "Culture", was financed over the ensuing 400 years, from the "issue" of non-white women in the "new world".
So, the malignant Right is Right! The President's lineage does not track this historical pattern. His African link to Africa is more direct, and skips the entire concubine part. The white males, however, have constructed over time elaborate legal and social structures to permit them to deny any human contact with their "issue". This explains the curious madness of our "white supremacists".
