The Rise of Mediocre White Males

I've already acknowledged your opinion. Why feel the need to offer it again?

because you are still denying that it is fact, not opinion.

You're trying to pretend fact is opinion is meaningless prove it. Prove he isn't divorced and prove he isn't a cheater just to start with

Oh, but I do accept fact as fact. And I acknowledge opinion as opinion. No need to get confused over such a simple concept.

Something I've begun to notice is the tendency in this country to put mediocre white males into high places. No way a woman or black person reaches a position where, say, a clown like Donald Trump landed if they are just average. Hell, BO had a law degree and lifted himself up from being raised by a single mom. Trump inherited a fortune, became a so-called billionaire without even earning an MBA.

Let's look at the woman who ran against Trump. Hillary was a high achiever who grew up middle class, at best. Yet, she earned a law degree from Yale. Unlike Trump, she actually served a couple terms in the US Senate and as Secretary of State. She is highly knowledgeable of the workings of government and foreign affairs. Clown Show president was ignorant of both. Yet, mediocre white guy won the election.


So, IMO, Trump is the classic example of a mediocre white guy rising to the top just by being average. Of course, it helps when your father or grandfather overachieved, as was the case with Trump. It also helps when you can con a huge chunk of the populace into believing you are one of them by simply donning a red trucker hat. But, all in all, if Trump was wearing Obama or Hillary shoes, he'd be a nobody. Of that I have no doubt.

The great victory of mediocrity over greatness is sure real....and is sure killing us.

Our broken education system in particular and Victim Culture in general is the major cause.
