  1. Again, the uber-liberal Ms. Kennedy exposes her blatant ignorance of the Founding Fathers’ intelligence and, more important, foresight. See how long her precious, parasitic liberal states and big cities survive without the food and production of the ‘backward’ rural states she demonizes. How tragic that this woman is entrusted with what passes for “education” in her classrooms at IUPUI.

  2. So according to retired professor’s logic Native Americans are no longer a minority? Last time I checked Wyoming had Native Americans residing there (in fact, isn’t it about time to change the name of the capital?). Does their voice not matter? I find her rationale offensive and racist but not surprising.

  3. I guess the Bill of Rights and the Constitutional guaranties of liberty are “undemocratic” too, to the degree that they protect the individual from the tyranny of the majority.
