Pretend you are white (assuming you are black) Try and pretend you are white. balckhorseshoe. Now you as whitie are listening to a black preacher who preaches blame the white people for all that is wrong with black america. And listen to this preacher whos agenda is only to help black people...

This subprime lending mess is not about racism. It is about banks deciding to give loans to those whos credit was not so good. They made it easy to obtain credit for those already in debt or for those who did not have the income to repay those loans. I really don't think the banks were...

So you are saying if they don't fit the mold, then equal opportunity means nothing. Like group think? Yes, this happens, but given our society those that don't fot the mold go on to build their own business, be own boss. And they have the freedom to do that if they are the bright ones.

Hmm, what do the poorer black members of his congregation think about that? He preaches white hate...he preaches discrimination of blacks by whites and that is the cause of all black poverty...and then with all the money he takes from his black congregation he lives lavishly. True cult mentality.

It sounds like you were in the right place at the right time when you were on the receiving end of realestate boom. It was a sellers market because home prices were apppreciated at ridiculous speed at same time money became cheap and easy to get. You made your deals, collected your commission...

The debate was about your home appreciating from $60.000 purchase price in 1988 to something like $600,000 now in 2008. So you tell me to do research for the last 60 years. We are talking about a 20 year ownership by you, not 60 years. The level of appreciation of your home is unusaul, but...

That is huge appreciation for the time frame and unusual. iF hedgefund2 house did go up that much I would guess he bought in an area that was average in 1988, and then that area or town turned into a hot spot for some reason. Unusual, but it does happen. But no, the average homebuyer will...

Maybe its not a big return on the investment dollar wise, but somtimes it is if a person buys, holds for 5 or so years, then sells before putting into too much interest or upkeep. But those that own their own home can leave it to their children in estate. Leaves something to their children when...

I have no judgements of Obama becasue he is black. None. I have multiracial family. At one time I admired him and his unity talk. I considered him for my vote. But more has come out about Obama that I didn't see before. Look at the tremendous support Obama had before his church and its...

Major flaws in all the candidates. Tough choice to make and I don't know where to go on this yet. But for me personally Obama poses the biggest threat IF he follows an anti american crusade once elected. That possibility turns me away from voting for him.

Also it is not so much Reverand Wrights anti white rants that people are afraid of, it is Obamas 20 year connection. Rev Wright can rant all he wants becasue this country has given him the freedom to do that, he is entitled to his opinion and he has the freedom to express his opinions in his...

Yes, some people find false meaning in Obamas actions, like the hand over heart, his muslim name means he is a terrorist and other ridiculous propaganda. But Obamas roots show his affiliation with people who do not believe in capitalism. That is what should be questioned and looked into.

I agree it doesn't necessarrily mean prices are going lower, but for people who bought maybe 3 or 4 years ago (at the top) and they decide to sell now, they most likely will have to settle to break even instead of making appreciation. For me, I own home. It is paid off. Starter home. It has...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-cxitNqSnU Do you feel better now? I have to admit the laughing is contagious.

Hmm was it consensual sex? We haven't heard the picnic table side of the story yet. :D

You are right lenders do not make loans to get your property. They have made many many loans without due dilligence..why? Becasue they knew they would not keep these loans on thier books but instead package them and sell them (all with a nice AAA ribbon) now they have no risk anymore, they...

Yes, it is boom or bust, that is right. But we are reaching a time when homes became so inflated in price and new buyers average income can not afford... (sellers and lender banks) wanted to keep the ball rolling in their favor for take the money and...

This logic of hedgefund is only good for those who profit at the high end and get out of the game....no waiting for them 5 - 10 years to realize gains. They make immediate gains on the sell, no wait, then move on. Ok, thats the name of the game. But now is very volatile..more than 2000 2003...

Your first mistake is assuming I am not a homeowner and missed the boat. I am not grandmas basement tenant as you assume. You make sense when you say people will want a home sooner or later and the dam will break and people will start to buy again. Yes, those people are the very young and...
