Going by the amount of Nigerian princesses and cheap drug traders on the internet, I'm not inclined to believe you. However, when it comes to discussing politics in English on the internet, you're bound to run into a community that's white, relatively young, largely male, often not very professionally accomplished, yet or at all, and centre-left to left-wing.

I said 'white' (My ancestry's pretty much nothing but German, Norwegian, and Irish), but 'race' based on skin color is more of a social construct then a scientific catgagorization of the myriad phenotypes humans can have anyway.

living in the u.s., i am, as most of us are, of somewhat mixed ancestry.

and i really must insist upon continuing to call for 'white/cucasioan' to be more properly called, as it is, "euro-american".
(as only a very small minority of euro-americans' ancestors actually hail from the cuacases, and pretty much only carcases are "white")

most of my ancestory is a mixture of western and eastern european ethnicities, though my father's mother's mother, was onondagwa.
(native/indigenous americans, being in my book the only true 'americans' who have any legitimate claim to being non-hyphinated)
his linial paternal acestors were the the 'military contractors' (hessian mercinaries) hired by the british for the 'french and indian wars'.
my mothers side of the family were eastern european jews, mostly polish.
that leaves my father's mother's father's branch, who were from scotland.

presumably by "race" is meant ethnicity, as the term has no other actual, real, physical, meaning.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

"economic freedom" is "the cake"

Ah, but how do we know the Nigerian princes are actually Nigerian?

After all, everything else in those emails is lies. Why not the Nigerian part?
