      DNA test is illegal in Israel & it’s big crime coz people from Poland , Germany, Austria, uk
      In fact 1948 to this minute there is no peace , Zionist lied to the Jewish, plestine is promised land for Jew. Actually Jewish, Christian, Muslims all suffering until this minute. They came from Europe & America & took Palestine lands . This is injustice

    So glad for this historical interview. Dr Maya Angelou’s words and her poem, “Still I Rise” was the perfect ending for the beginning of an new presidency.

      @@Jennifer_Laz My comments are correct and accurate. Obama was elected because he was black.
      And he left the country in far worse shape - proof that a win for Affirmative Action is a loss for competency.
      If those who benefit from Affirmative Action were as competent as those harmed by it,
      they wouldn't need Affirmative Action.

      "By the late 1970s the use of racial quotas and minority set-asides led to court challenges of affirmative action as a form of “reverse discrimination.” The first major challenge was Regents of the University of California v. Bakke (1978), in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled (5-4) that quotas may not be used to reserve places for minority applicants if white applicants are denied a chance to compete for those places. Although the court outlawed quota programs, it allowed colleges to use race as a factor in making admissions decisions [now as of June 29, 2023 no longer extant." -Britannica Encyclopedia
      At this point Affirmative Action and DEI are just code word for accusation of fraud.
      President Barack Obama was elected, devoid of any artificial imposition unless you count his votes and the election as stolen. Those who voted for him voted because they believed he would be able to respond to their needs as Americans.
