#1 Didn't seem to stop him from taking an oath to uphold and defend. Power by any means necessary.

#2 Cory Booker needs some acting lessons so he can properly stand and orate in the Mussolini Persona... So far he just looks like a wild-eye crackpot -- no gravitas.

#4 wild-eye crackpot

Outta the pile...

Much have I travell'd in the realms of brass,
And many coastal states and boroughs seen;
Round many longish islands have I been,
Which bards and politicians hold first class.
Oft of one grey expanse had I been told
Where Satchmo slept serene beneath the green,
But never knew its queen, well-spoken, clean,
Till spoke out Alexandria loud and bold:
Then felt I like some connoisseur of lies
When new dissembler spins into his ken,
A wise barista, say, with crazy eyes
Who makes one minute chatting seem like ten,
Her face uplifted toward a distant prize
Or braying on the stump in Darien.

#7 It was Western civilization that came to reject slavery as an institution.

It was Western cultural imperialism and intolerance that greatly reduced the global practice of slavery in the 19th century.

The 0.6 compromise was the result of the political rejection of slavery by a large faction of the Western populace.

This trivial historical insight is probably beyond a "civil rights leader" who changed his name to honor failed, corrupt, totalitarian sh*thole despots, who btw, as despots did claim ownership to their subjects.
