Jesse Jackson's Memories of Mandela

Quote from PiggyBank:

my only dog in this hunt, is not having a national holiday for a foreign figure. Your previous post is all over the map, i did not say "abolish national holidays" or even that "mandela was a great man". All I said was we shouldn't have a national holiday for him in the US.

ok, let me try it one more time, I didn't say "National Holiday"

I trade forex, so for me there is no National Holiday, something is always trading somewhere in the world

I just want a day off once a year

that's why I need an international worldwide holiday

Quote from zdreg:

anti free markets.

explain, I'm listening, he had the power to nationalize the whole economy, and chose against it, because he knew he needed established businesses and outside investment to make the whole deal work

that's what puts the liberals in such an uncomfortable position. He fought for democracy, and when he won, they felt cheated because he didn't give them the socialist utopia they were hoping for.

I suppose you could say the same thing for Viet Nam. The difference being, we have 44,000 names on a wall.

why are u trying to obfuscate, i already asked what you meant by holiday, you didn't answer. Now you say international holiday where you, forex trader, get the day off, implying that the world economy should shut down for 'mandela day'.. is that it bro? lmao

i'm starting to think you're the newest incarnation of mr bill or maybe oldtime.

and that's why I say banks should be open on Christmas, unless Donald Trump can prove Jesus was born in America.

whaaaat dude? xmas is a religious holiday celebrated by christians who are the majority in the US. I could care less if it isn't a national holiday, cause everyone who wants to, will still celebrate it and they won't be doing so from work. As far as i know, there is no church of mandela, and no one here (besides you) worships him. a little different, no?

so what was your last handle?

because he's an inspiration for peace, reconciliation, forgiveness, and democracy (and most importantly, free market capitalism.)

and the holiday wouldn't be for him here, or him there, it would be to celebrate our common values, even if you are "them."

you should read books... Black Marxist rides to power then wants the Whites to stick around so they can be looted, calls it reconciliation, turns country into genocidal thingy while exporting revolution to Zimbabwe...

Even the death of Mandella brings out the ET KKK clan.

I bet when the you would come out to play, all the other kids used to cringe at the thought.
