You sound like a person who showed us all a picture of the slaves singing by the fire and said, See, look how happy they were. As I said , I think your probably a good man, but when I was in Viet Nam I saw how the white southerners talked about and to the black GI's. We were totally segregated. Black and white hooches and all. 
 President Johnson pushed the civil rights legislation through congress and almost every southern congressman hated him for it.
 Christians may have died for getting slaves freedom, but most southern Christians stood by and did nothing, because they believed in white supremacy.
 And your right, those marchers who spilled their blood just did the small work. Really
  As far as Obama again your right, he had the gall to think a black man should be president. 
As far as me helping our country, I left 8 years ago when the hatred got to much for me to bear. After the last 6 mos I know I will never return because I don't recognize it any more.
