Uncle Ben is just regurgitating something the repubs have been saying since its inception. There is no comparison. Only a bigot and a fool would make such a comparison. This does not lessen the profound devastation that slavery has caused on people of color.

There has not been any slavery in over 100 years! Why do Blacks keep bringing up the subject? There has been millions of Black births, most of them from unwed mothers, since the end of slavery. Climb out of the self inflicted pity and live in the present. The Blacks should be using Dr.Carson as a shining example of what can be accomplished.

Carbo you are as dumb as a rock. Successful Blacks don't need to use your shining example of Uncle Ben. When slavery ended (bondage) remnants of it remained in the form of sharecropping, segregation, black codes, discrimination, profiling, stereotyping, just to name a few that is alive and well. You and a few others are a prime example. You can't erase the sordid past in one hundred years bigot when it went on for over three hundred fifty years azzhole. Most Blacks in America are descendants of Slaves and we know the truth about slavery. So STFU when you don't know what you are talking about FOOL. I can see history was not one of your favorite subjects when it talked about slavery and its aftermath.

Ben Carson will make a great POTUS!!!!!!!! I believe the greatest impediment to blacks after they were freed were demoncRATS the white demoncRATS the white southren DEMONCRATS. And that is a fact jack.

Salon.com is a pile of troll excrement.

This coming from an uneducated white southerner. Jarasan you are indeed a DUMBAZZ.

FYI Jarasan, my information does not come from Salon.com. I have a masters degree with a double major in Science and Mathematics, and a minor in American and world history. What comics books did you receive most of your education from?
I taught history. What qualifies you?

What do you know about Slavery, give me some examples. You talk a good game about your knowledge, show me. I think you are B.S. I happen to know quite a lot of very educated Blacks, who never have to mention their degrees. Why do you have to keep bringing your education up? Their is not a Black living today that knows anything about slavery, and that includes you. My father was a sharecropper for over 60 years. It didn't hurt his character any and he sure as hell did not raise his 7 kids on WELFARE and never heard or saw him feeling sorry for himself. Put that in your sympathy pipe and smoke it, or crack. Whichever you prefer.

Yes troll, you are a uneducated white southerner. Since yo' troll a$$ can't read or comprehend and the article above is from salon.com proves once again your true DEGREE of ignorance and not staying on subject. Yes the white demoncRAT southerner was and is until TODAY 10/24/2015 the oppressor of people of color. hilly needs the troll vote, so go ahead troll and serve your white demoncRAT master again.

Carbo , you and Jarasan are BIGOTS. One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ. You're jealous as hell and feel that someone has to prove something to you. I don't give a rat's AZZ what you believe, it does not change a thing for me you immature man. I'm proud of all my accomplishments and there is nothing that you can say that would make me think otherwise.

There is only one lil* troll and it is the only racist at LP.

Jarasan, you are a troll and a dumb one at that. YOU ARE A RACIST PERVERT AND CRY-BABY.
