How come there aren't as many Successful Black people in the U.S?
Canada Has tons more. And when I ask my Black buddies if they could have done it in the U.S they say, 'It's tough'
I thought the civil rights movement gave equal rights to all.

Good point.
I'll share my last experinces:
This morning when i saw the news the NYSE opened and had a Company of executives. All white.
My last visit to DC. In the Business part of town. Not one Black person in a suit. But cleaning the streets or at the front desk.
It is hard for anyone to be truly successful in the US. It is a very competitive nation, and blacks have built up a rather compaciant attitude with regards to their situation.

Yup, there's some conclusive research
I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

I heard Canadians are pretty racist.
My indian friend said he was harassed in Toronto just for stepping out of his van.

Yes, based on your friends experience, I will have to agree that Canadians are in fact the most racist people in the history of the world.

Any black person who wants to work hard and get decent grades can get a good scholarship all the way through graduate school and get land an excelent job afterwards.
The opportunities are there, they often just do not take them. I have a black friend who does most of his business on the internet and he makes several hundred thousand a year. Why can't more of them do this? After all, there is no excuse of racism because people cannot tell what color you are online.

That shows right there that you don't know what you're talking about. What was the "business part of town"? I know if you go on 18th and K, the BUSIEST intersection in downtown DC, and you'll see PLENTY of black people in suits, men and women...I worked on 17th and H so I would know...And I'm black AND successful.
Black Pussy
Click On Mr Cosby..CCbill, 60/40, 136 FHG's....The Cos Loves Black Ghetto Pussy!!
Being Black offers advantages that other people with the same capabilities and skills aren't receiving, particularly in education, due to the affirmative action family of laws. So whatever you are trying to achieve, I hope laying a guilt trip on Whites isn't part of it, because that would be injustified.
Census 2000 showed that the United States population on April 1, 2000 was 281.4 million. Of the total, 36.4 million, or 12.9 percent, reported Black or African American.
According to the 2001 Census 662,215 Canadians identified themselves as black, approximately 2% of the entire Canadian population
The US has like 55 times the number of black people than Canada does. Yeah, I'm so sure Canada has TONS more successful black people than the US.

I rebooted, deleted temp files, history, cookies and everything...still cannot view the news clip. All I see is that fucking gay ass music video from "Rick Roll". Anyone else have a different link to the news clip?

Bullshit. I have to pay for college and i'm black and both my parents are broke.
I even have a few white/asian friends who are going to school for free at a black college.
The shit works both ways. Don't believe all the shit that you watch on the news because the majority of it is made just to stir people up and fill a time slot.
DICK TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR.
Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

What does any of this have to do with the fact that there exists a multitude of very different programs to get more Blacks specifically into higher education, while the number of such programs aiming for Whites or Asians is nil?
