don’t think the cost is the problem. The

They'd accept you as a very able Kegro
but whether they'd accept 20 million is
something else again, give up their land and
give up their resources. So I think in fact
you'll have to seek separation in this country
Wow if you try to take over Florida or
California, if 20 million Negroes try to
take over California from 170 million whites
or non-Keproes your just going to have a
Civil War of the most deadly type and do you
expect 20 million to prevail against 170 million?
1 don't think that when the founding fathers of
this country, only 13 colonies wanted to
secede from England, they didn't let the odds
of the English Empire or the British Rapire
that were against them in any way deter
them from their goal of freedom, justice and
@quality. They didn’t care what the odds
were,
They were a relatively unified group opposing
another group across the seas but here you
would wave to drive out the 17 million people
of California or some 6 million people in
Florida. .
But gir you failed to realize or consider
that this country was inhabited by Tadians
gehen the white man caze here from Europe and he
didn't let the fact that the country was already
occupied deter him from taking it over.
