                             Former US Presidents' view of Black People


The White culture has performed a fundamental function to augment “laws of the land.” The American Legal System assists Whites to make them feel they are permanent, safe and never-ending. It causes Blacks to jump in UNISON on the back of the wagon. We establish our identities with White Race principles because Caucasian ideologies promise to connect—a significance that will never perish. Look at what the United States' former Presidents had to say about Black people. White opinions are staunchly embedded into this country's history. Pay close attention to Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson can also be labeled one of the "Founders of Trickery."

Thomas Jefferson

“When freed (the Negro) is to be removed beyond the reach of mixture.” In 1784 he wrote, “Our confederacy, (the United States) must be viewed as the nest from which all America, North and South is to be peopled.” In 1801 he continued, “When our rapid multiplication will expand itself over the whole northern, if not the southern continent, with a people speaking the same language, governed in similar forms, and by similar laws, nor can we contemplate with satisfaction either blot or mixture on that surface.”

James Madison

“The remarkable increase of slaves, as shown (sic) by the census, results from the comparative defect of moral and prudential restraint on the sexual connation; from the absence, at the same, of that counteracting licentiousness of intercourse, of which the worst examples are to be traced when the African trade, as in the West Indies, kept the number o females less than that of males. “.(free Blacks are) generally idle and depraved; appearing to retain the bad qualities of the slaves, with whom they continue to associate, without acquiring any of the good qualities of the whites, from whom they continue separated by prejudices against their color and other peculiarities.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, not to intermarry with white people; and I say in addition to this that there is a difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together in terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be a position of superior and inferior and as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

Andrew Johnson

“This is a country for white men and by God as long as I am President, it shall be a government for white men.”

James Garfield

“I have a strong feeling of repugnance when I think of the Negro being made our political equal and I would be glad if they could be colonized, sent to heaven or got rid of in a decent way.”

Theodore Roosevelt

“Blacks are a perfectly stupid race.” In 1901 he wrote, “I have not been able to think out any solution to the terrible problem offered by the presence of the Negro on this continent. He is here and can neither be killed nor driven away.” As far as Native American/Indians were concerned he once said, “I don’t go so far as to think that any good Indian s are dead Indians but I believe nine out o ten are, and I shouldn’t inquire too closely into the health of the tenth.”

William Howard Taft

“Your race is adapted to be a race of farmers, first, last and for all times,” he told a group of Black college students.

Woodrow Wilson

In his five-volume History of the American People, Wilson described the Ku Klux Klan as having been organized by a group of idle young men in Pulaski, Tennessee as a social club for mere association and amusement. They named it Kuklos, Greek for circle. Wilson proceeded to write: “Secrecy and mystery were at the heart of the pranks they planned: secrecy with regard to the membership of their Circle, mystery with regard to the place and objects of its meetings; and the mystery of disguise and of silent parade when the comrades rode abreast at night when the moon was up: a white mask, a tall cardboard hat, the figures of a man and horse sheeted like a ghost, and the horses feet muffled to move without sound of their approach. It was the delightful discovery of the thrill of awesome fear, the woeful looking for calamity that swept through the country sides as they moved from pace to place upon their silent visitations, coming no man could say whence, going upon no man knew what errand, that put thought of mischief into the minds of the frolicking comrades. It threw Negroes into a very ecstasy of panic to see these sheeted ‘Ku Klux’ move near them in the shrouded night; and their comic fear stimulated the lads who excited it to many an extravagant prank and mummery. No one knew or could discover who the masked players were; no one could say whether they meant serious business or only innocent mischief; and the zest of the business lay in keeping the secret close. Year by year the organization spread until at last there had sprung into existence a great Ku Klux Klan, an “Invisible Empire of the South,” bound together in loose organization, to protect the southern country from some of the ugliest hazards of a time of revolution.”

Warren Harding (The Well-Known Black President)

“Men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against any suggestion of social equality. This is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognizing a fundamental, eternal, inescapable difference. Racial amalgamation there cannot be.

Harry Truman

“I am strongly of the opinion Negroes ought to be in Africa, yellow men in Asia and white men in Europe and America.” In a letter to his daughter Truman described the White House waiters as “an army of coons.”

Dwight D. Eisenhower

The fact that Blacks were entitled to political and economic opportunity did not mean necessarily that everyone has to mingle socially or “that a Negro should court my daughter.”

Renaissance Magazine
Thomas Jefferson’s View of Blacks is especially puzzling since he fathered Black children.

(The lover of a Black mistress--Sally Hemmings and the father of Black Children. Television has glorified the love relationship between Jefferson and Hemmings. What a hoax some of us tend to believe). 

Thomas Jefferson, who was the third president of the US, presented a hard act for Warren to follow. Jefferson was the author of the Declaration of Independence and one of the professed great champions of human freedom and the rights of man. He even built a home on Monticello--his plantation--with his mistress, Black children and other slaves--that stands today as a monument. The Constitutional framers’ attitude toward liberty and equality believed that all men--at least White men--were equally entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The Framers changed “pursuit of happiness” to “property” in the Bill of Rights. Like the Declaration, the Constitution refers to “men,” not to “slaves/chattel” who enjoyed neither liberty nor equality (Burns, 101). Read the following, and you don’t know who is writing--Jefferson or Adolf Hitler: 

These disapprovals according to Jefferson are political, physical and moral. The first difference, which strikes us, is that of color. Whether the black of the Negro resides in the reticular membrane between the skin and scarf-skin, or in the scarf-skin itself; whether it proceeds from the color of the blood, the color of the bile, or from that of some other secretion, the difference is fixed in nature, and is as real as if its seat and their own judgment in favor of the whites, declared by their preference of them, as uniformly as is the preference of the Octoroon for the Black women over those of his own species. The circumstance of superior beauty, is thought worthy attention in the breeding of our horses, dogs, and other domestic animals; why not in that of man? 

Besides those of color, figure, and hair, there are other physical distinctions proving a difference of race. They have less hair on the face and body. They secrete less by the kidneys, and more by the glands of the skin, which gives them a very strong and disagreeable odor. This greater degree of occurrence renders them more tolerant of heat, and less so of cold, than the whites. Perhaps too a difference of structure in the pulmonary apparatus with skillful experimentation discovering to be the principal regulator of animal heat. 

They seem to require less sleep. A Black, after hard labor through the day, will be induced by the slightest amusements to sit up till midnight, or later, though knowing he must be out with the first dawn of the morning. They are brave and more adventuresome. But this may perhaps proceed from foresight, which prevents their seeing danger until it is present. When present, Blacks do not go through it with more coolness or steadiness than Whites. They are more spirited behind their female: but love seems with them to be more an eager desire, than a tender delicate mixture of sentiment and sensation. Their grief is temporary. An animal whose body is at rest, and who does not reflect, must be disposed to sleep. 

Comparing them by their faculties of memory, reason, and imagination, it appears to me, that in memory they are equal to the Whites; in reason much inferior. One could scarcely be found capable of tracing and comprehending the investigations of Euclid; and that in imagination they are dull, tasteless, and anomalous. It would be unfair to follow them to Africa for this investigation. We will consider them here, on the same stage with the Whites, and where the facts are of doubtful authenticity on which a judgment is to be formed. It will be right to make great allowances for the difference of condition, of education, of conversation, of the sphere in which they move. Many millions of them have been brought to and born in America. 

Religion indeed has produced a Phyllis Wheatley; but it could not produce a poet. The compositions published under her name are below the dignity of criticism. The heroes of the Dunciad are to her, as Hercules to the author of that poem. Ignatius Sancho has approached nearer to merit in composition; yet his letters do more honors to the heart than the head. 

They breathe the purest effusions of friendship and general philanthropy, and show how great a degree of the latter may be compounded with strong religious zeal. The improvement of the Blacks in body and mind, in the first instance of their mixture with the whites, has been observed by every one, and proves that their inferiority is not the effect merely of their condition of life.... I advance it therefore as a suspicion only, that the blacks, whether originally a distinct race, or made distinct by time and circumstances, are inferior to the whites in the endowments both of body and mind. 

This unfortunate difference of color, and perhaps of faculty, is a powerful obstacle to the emancipation of these people. Many of their advocates, while they wish to vindicate the liberty of human nature, are anxious also to preserve its dignity and beauty. The slave, when made free, might mix with, without staining the blood of his master. But with us a second is necessary, unknown to history. When freed, he is to be removed beyond the reach of mixture.
