A Radio Talk Personality
Clyde Rambo's NEW Book
INTRODUCTION

I will not even begin to pretend to be a writer in the technical sense. While contemporaries
were getting their technical expertise (and liberal brainwashing) in college classrooms I
was cutting Styrofoam for insulation in refrigerated trucks to put food on the table. Having
ignored my studies in high school in favor of athletics I faced a Herculean task of self
education, a process that continues to this day. This book is not intended then for those
scholarly folks whose noses sniff the rarified air of self importance as they critique mere
mortals.

While I grew up among tenant farmers and interacted day-to-day with the black people
who worked the fields as we did I nevertheless attended a segregated school and was well
aware of the unwritten rules of the day regarding a division of the races. I did not receive
special privileges that some feel are reserved for all who are not people of color. I
somehow missed that gravy train. The real color in America, indeed in the world is green.
We had so little green in our family that St Paddy’s day went unobserved.

As you will see in this book I have had a unique vantage point from which to observe
racism in our country and I did observe it among whites…and among black people as well.
While much progress has been made in race relations I do not deny that we still do not
have a utopian society and I doubt that we will ever reach that plateau. There will always
be a few among us of all races, creeds and colors who say and do things that require
ignorance. Malice as well but the main ingredient is ignorance. Take a close look at the
treatment of Hispanics and to a lesser extent, Asians by black Americans who observe
their reticence to report crime and use it as a handy ATM machine. Racism and man’s
inhumanity to man has enough blame to go around.

Syndicated Fly Jock Tom Joyner’s latest book, entitled “I’m just a DJ but…it makes sense
to me” prompted me to write this book and the incendiary statements of Rev. Jeremiah
Wright, coupled with Barak Obama’s call for a real dialog on race relations makes this
book a timely read.

Any real dialog among the races has always been hindered by those who seek to stifle
debate by shouting “racist or bigot” at anyone on the white side of the debate. In their
world it is not possible to have another point of view opposite their own. That eliminates a
debate and makes it a continuous monolog. Liberal America’s white guilt trip has fed the
paranoia. It is time for that to end if we are to unite as a people. There is an entire sub
culture that thrives in America by stoking the fires of dissent between the races. These
people will not give up their primary source of income readily. We are all pawns in their
games of one-upmanship.

You will find in this book an episode from my talk show where a retired professor named
“Charles” tells us that even if one person works hard all day while another goes through
the motions they should each share equally in the pay for that work. I have a problem with
that mentality just as I continue to be amazed at a news media that, with a straight face can
report a widening gap between the have’s and have not’s in our country without
recognizing that those who’s pant waistline is at mid thigh, that insist on the right to make
their own decision to leave school in the eighth grade, and that takes boastful delight in
impregnating gullible young women who are following the same course in life are not apt
to help close the gap. These “dudes” come in all colors but there is a disproportionate
percentage of them in the black community.

I do not suffer under the delusion that I will not incur the wrath of those content with the
status quo in America. Despite the calls for real dialog in defusing the Rev. Wright’s
incendiary and blatantly untrue statements that damaged the Obama run for the
Presidency I don’t anticipate any greater desire that both sides be heard. The “level
playing field” that both sides claim to want is an illusion. Each side wants it tilted their way.
