Abraham Lincoln as saying
"I am not, nor ever have been
in favor of making voters
or jurors of negroes,
nor of qualifying them to hold office,
nor to intermarry with white people,
i as much as any man
am in favor of the superior position
assigned to the white race."
because i am so shocked
by this quote
the depth of racist attitude
in this country
that we have now had a black president
is some hope for the future
