Candice Owens makes it obvious that few in that room have functional brains.

    Hilarious...oh sorry, can I laugh here? Yes! LMAO.
    She is 100% correct...even Jim Jordan laughed because it is a charade.

    Every conscious human knows it's not about the supremacy of one's skin color, it's about one's competence....and there is not a whole lot of that in DC.

    I could definitely see Candice Owens as our first Black Female President in the future, perhaps another 15-20 years. Right now she is exactly where she needs to be, getting exposure expressing the truths of her convictions.

    I love this woman, and the whole PragerU, except for the religious undercurrent. They do a great job communicating.

    We should do something like this with our resources.

    I have a black friend who says that Candace Owens makes her sick to her stomach. I replied that Ms. Owens is an individualist, not a collectivist.

      I dont have any black friends any more. The black race has been infected to a large degree with entitlement and gimme-gimme engendered by obama. Too bad.

      She believes in freedom, like freedom of choice and freedom of speech. Reasoned and natural rights that are like kryptonite to the far left’s made-up narrative based ideology. Her religious views do muddle that a bit.

    I'm sure those self-loathing white people were suffering from a severe case of cognitive dissonance by the time she was done.

      People need to choose to be either a victim or a victor.

        Absolutely not. Rational people are equals, neither predator nor prey. Any system that retains victims and victors is still operating on the animal level of evolution, eat or be eaten. Human intellect, rational consciousness, abstract thinking--becoming human--should take us to the next level. Say, Objectivist ethics.

      There will always be traitors.

      The reason for it ranges from hatred, money to revenge.

      I have seen white people announcing their "shame" for being born white (they did not elaborate whose fault it has been).

      Or some misguided souls being ashamed for America (they can always go somewhere else).

      In most of these cases the individual turned out to be disturbed intellectually, if it is their intellect that is disturbed. These people are unhappy in life and searching for the reason of their unhappiness.

      The cause is invariably them but this is a world of blaming others for your failure. It is much easier than find the problem in yourself and correct it. Ask Obama.

    I suppose its a good idea and necessary to rebuff these crazy claims made by the collectivists, but it is annoying to even have to do it. The collectivist arguments are so lame its ridiculous to combat them.

    Ms. Owens is most impressive in being an intelligent, articulate, and passionate young woman, and I would add rational if it were not for her pro-life and Christian partisanship. It was good to hear her pro-capitalist statement. She is one to watch. I was especially captivated by her anti-hate views. It is a balancing act to be against hate without giving way to hating.

      It would best if the argument for individualism wasnt based on irrational religion tenets. That said, at least for the rest of MY life (I am 74), if we can keep collectivism at bay even relying on religion, I will be in favor of people like Candace. I am NOT into any of the religions as a believer, although I will say that SOME of the things promoted by religions are actually quite rational (such as financial responsibility, family values, etc)

        Those positive values that some religions promote are not unique to religion. They coincidentally also embrace values practiced by secular groups in non-religious organizations and relationships. Any code of conduct that respects individuals' rights, even some of the ten commandments, will help to build good societies. That some religions preach self-sacrifice is not a recommendation of their values. It is not self-sacrifice to deal with others as equals, respecting their rights and not asking them to live for one's own sake. (Sound familiar?) Indulging in neither force nor fraud is not a religious tenet. But religion is collectivist dogma at best and a formula for exterminating non-believers at worst. Not good bedfellows.
