Anyone who owns or has owned a slave, I'd say.
So you would support an official apology for segregation, right?
The apology isn't necessarily directed to the descendants of slaves or to African-Americans in particular. It is directed to all American citizens, and to the world. It is the government apologizing for its own human rights abuses, as it should.
One can apologize for an historical act without implying that people are still victimized by it today. For example, the Catholic Church issued a mea culpa around 1990 for its persecution of Galileo and his scientific theories...that doesn't mean that anyone thought people were still suffering from the Inquisition or that the Catholic Church still believed the sun revolved around the earth until 1990.
The black side of The Obama was never a vicitm of slavery in the US.Obama should half appologize to half of himself then half-appologize to the nation.
Everyone who should is dead. No real point in having people who weren't involved in it to say sorry. Any slave traders nowadays should apologize, before they are executed.
Nice to know your statement doesn't match your vote in the poll. :roll:
There are slaves in Africa right now, so the answer he gave matches what he said.

Young girls who suffer from sexual abuse get pregnant and they end up committing abortion which take away their lives or give birth and abandon the children or throw them in dustbins or pit toilets.
Check again my friend. He voted for everything in the list EXCEPT "Nobody"
That is so sick.
Yes. It is extremely disgusting. A lot of what goes on in Africa these days is appalling.
That is utter crap. Welfare, drugs and the thug life style destroyed the black family. It was still strong during slavery.
No..
The last thing the slave owners wanted was any family life..
Read up on this subject, as I have...
With a weak or non-existant family, and no values, they were easy pray for crime.
Softness on crime leads to this thug life..

WTF are you talking aboutYeah, I totally voted for slave traders, ie a black president. Or are you just pissed a black guy beat a white guy?
WTF are you talking about
Im talking about THIS POLL RIGHT HERE, THE ONE YOU VOTED IN ON THIS THREAD.
Not a presidential election.
I can totally tell you are a partisan hack now, AND a racist. Otherwise this wouldn't have turned into the topic of presidential elections and mention of race, which has absolutely nothing to do with my post.
FAIL.
Oh, okay. Yeah, I voted for all the ones, except no one, and the African people or something right? How do you know I mean this government? These people? Note on page 8 I posted all the people who should apologize are dead. Convientely forgot about that?
Oh, your playing this retarded game of semantics.
The African chieftains sold the very worst of their worst into slavery. The United States is now the recipient of their progeny. In the days of American slavery...we housed, clothed and fed them, but at least we got a little work out of them.
