The only grad school in the country with low enough standards to accept me, by ricardomath
Well ricardomath,
You admit yourself that no recognized university would do this,...
Ummm...no I didn't, Lofton. But don't let that stop you from displaying your idiocy by making up such a claim.
quote:
...yet you have found one university to do this.
I'm willing to bet that the only university to do this, is one of our so-called prestigious Black colleges, or universities,...
I don't doubt that you'd be willing to bet that. Just like you'd be willing to bet that Merv Dymally is an illegal immigrant. But that's just because you are an idiot.
quote:
or if not this that Caucasian institution of learning that has a double standard when dealing with Black students, meaning in every instance an instructor must meet the standards to teach Caucasian students, but anything goes in the selection process to teach Black students.
Ummmm...we don't segregate our classes here. Black and white students are in the same classes, and have the same teachers. You are an idiot.
quote:
Be it that prestigious Black university, or that double standard Caucasian university, this is a real to life example of that Caucasian community passing on that misfit, underqualified, or unqualified individual, from their own community to the Black community.
In what way am I unqualified, Lofton? And in what way have I been "passed off to the Black community"? I didn't think it possible, Lofton, but your posts are actually becoming more bizarre and incoherient every day. You are an idiot.
quote:
....yep and if this happened at a Black prestigious university this is a prime example of that typical Black administrator, or a vivid example of that Black middleclass bending over backwards to serve others at the expense of the Black community.
....yep, and if this occurred at a Caucasian university, then Black students are being cheated, and Caucasians still win. Caucasians have made it possible to provide gainful employment for one of their own misfits at the expense of Black students. The Caucasian run university is lowering the standards just for Black students, namely to sidestep being held responsible to hire a Black qualified instructor to teach Black students. Must be nice to cheat the Black community on both ends, cheat Black students out of a mandated qualified instructor, and blatantly ignore qualified Black applicants for gainful employment to teach.
Rather than hiring a Black teacher, or other qualified individual from their own community who meets the standards, educational background, meaning credentials, etc., etc., they would rather reach back for a reject from the Caucasian community in that.......
"You have to realize that Lofton has a long history here, and everybody's interraction with him has pretty much fallen into a continuing pattern.
And that pattern has been a direct result of Lofton's actions here and elsewhere, and his posting style." by ricardomath
.....and ricardomath has the audacity to say this, and he is an imposter, a reject from his own community.
IRONHORSE, it is hoped that you look at the reality of it, and not the Hype.
...... Heck ricardomath even stated it himself! He must really believe that Black people must stupid, if he believes that every Black person is going to be that gullible! How insulting to the intelligence of Black people, and I'm not a university professor or anything close to it, and I can see this. It should be very easy for any university educated Black professional to see, that he is unqualified to teach any Black student , and that ricardomath needs to go back to his own community, to teach Caucasian students to see just how far he will get. If he is not good enough to teach Caucasian students then ricardomath is an insult to both Black students, and Black instructors alike!
.....they have chosen to hire ricardomath, which again is reason enough for me to act the way I do towards an individual such as ricardomath.
What a bizarre rant. What makes you think that you are qualified to judge my qualifications, Lofton? You are an idiot.

Furthermore, being married to a Black woman although commendable, ...
Why is being married to a Black woman "comendable"? You are an idiot.
quote:
...this is insufficient, and can not be used as the sole consideration to teach Black students. Teaching credentials are mandated by law.
Teaching certification has absolutely nothing to do with Universities, Lofton. It's for high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools. You are an idiot.
quote:
Marriage to a Black woman is not in the mix of requirements to teach anywhere, including any Black community!
Who ever said that it was? You are an idiot.
quote:
.....and if this happened as a result of the action or response of any Black university administrator at a prestigious Black university or any Caucasian run university, then these very individuals have little cause call a Black conservative an "Uncle Tom", etc., etc., when you consider that that Black professional who is in a position of influence to call the shots, but who would rather pass up a qualified instructor from the Black community, to instead hire an underqualified, unqualified individual reject in a "ricardomath" from the Caucasian community.
The Caucasian community wouldn't have ricardomath who is also Caucasian teaching their students, which is good enough reason to reject a ricardomath from teaching any Black student.
Ricardomath may have duped Kevin41, Kweli4Real, etc., etc., into his being accepted with the status that goes along with the position, but a competent Black administrator would not have given preference to any "ricardomath" over any truly qualified Black instructor!
.......but mind you, in every instance a Black instructor would have to meet the standards, meaning having a credential, the educational background, etc., or make no mistake you can forget about ever being considered for the position sought, no ands, ifs, or buts! Should any instructor use fraud to make it appear that they possess a college degree, or use false pretenses for a credential, the imposter may face felony criminal indictment, and prison time.
In what way are you claiming that I have used "fraud", Lofton? You are an idiot.
quote:
....nothing surprises me as to the reality of it. Heck, if Black people will promote a misfit or reject from the Caucasian community to teach Black students, then this will also explain the nonsense to keep and promote a misfit in an "illegal immigrant" serving foreign interests at the expense of Compton or South Central Los Angeles no good Merv Dymally, no good "Brentwood" Burke, carpetbagging Martin Ludlow in elected office, praising poverty pimping ambulance chasing Reverend Jesse Jackson or Reverend Al Sharpton, paying tribute to ambulance chasing attorney Johnny Cochran, and/or paying tidings beyond belief to no good sacreligious Black Preachers. Apparantly, far to many Black people choose to kick themselves in the rear end. This is ignorance, stupidity, treason for lack of better words, and since Black people are doing this to themselves, as reality would have it, you sure can't blame Caucasians for the condition of the Black community!
Well, at least we're back on familiar ground, Lofton. That no good illegal immigrant Merv Dymally and Jack Boot Poverty Pimping Black Prechers. You are an idiot.

Well IRONHORSE,
"....and that rude comment he made in reference to your wife" by IRONHORSE
Contrary to what you have stated I have yet to disrespect ricardomath's wife. If there was any disrespect shown to ricardomath's wife, ricardomath brought this on himself by stating that she was an illegal immigrant. In addition, ricardomath has been very disrespectful to others, and in order to receive respect respect must first be shown or given.
Generally speaking, the average U.S. citizen is not going to show more respect for legal immigration over illegal immigration.
Nobody forces you to disrespect anybody. Take some responsibility for your own actions, Lofton. You are an idiot.
quote:
Ricardomath is not in the same league as you, be it teaching art, math, or any other subject that requires an instructor to be licensed, meet the requirements, to be credentialed.
No license is required to teach mathematics at a university, Lofton. You are an idiot.
quote:
....unlike you, IRONHORSE, an art instructor who has the credentials to be an art instructor.....ricardomath is an instructor in name only who does not have the first credential or the educational background to be placed on par with any instructor who holds the necessary credentials.
...I don't know how you feel about this IRONHORSE, but I would be very angry, and not remain silent about it if it ever came to pass that an unqualified Caucasian instructor is going to be selected over and above a qualified Black instructor at any prestigious Black university.
You are not qualified to make judgements on my qualifications or lack thereof, Lofton. You are an idiot.
quote:
If this took place at any Caucasian run university then the fact that an unqualified, un-credentialed instructor holds the position to teach Black students, proves that the school has little or no respect for Black students or qualified Black instructors.
....just let a Black person, or otherwise misrepresent the reality of it to claim they have credentials to teach and you may end up in prison.
When have I ever claimed to have any credentials that I don't actually have, Lofton? You are an idiot.
quote:
At least ricardomath is truthful enough to admit that he is not credentialed.
I have a PhD in mathematics, Lofton. What more credentials are needed to be on the mathematics faculty of a university? You are an idiot.
quote:
So far, from all appearances, ricardomath is not fraudulent.
This is the only truthful statement that you have made in this entire post. But you are still an idiot.
quote:
Either way, ricardomath is not credentialed, thus he cannot hold tenure as a qualified instructor in any school environment, be it elementary, high school, or any school of hire learning!
You are correct that I can not teach in an elementary school, middle school, or high school.
But, of course, that's not my job. I'm on the mathematics faculty at Iowa State University, which is a university. You are an idiot.
quote:
If this took place at a prestigious Black university, this perhaps may explain why Black run institutions are considered substandard, or rated lower, as compared with other institutions who do not lower their requirements. Can't raise the bar on the quality of instruction, and the rating of a Black university when underqualified, or unqualified individuals are given preference over qualified instructors.
Looks like Kevin took care of this one, Lofton. You are an idiot.
