Starting point is 00:03:36 On this Monday, after Joe Biden was elected president in 2020, many of his detractors, those who voted against him, focused on allegations of voter fraud.

Starting point is 00:04:01 I had little confidence in his ability, and I stated that. I was proved correct, second worst president ever in my estimation.

My stance was as an American to root for the president to solve problems. Of course, Joe Biden let me down big time. Today, in the corrupt media, many want President Trump to fail at everything.

Starting point is 00:08:41 an African-American vet named James Meredith applied to the University of Mississippi, commonly called Old Miss. He was initially admitted, but later denied when the registrar learned he was black. A federal court ordered Old Miss to admit James Meredith, but the governor of Mississippi instructed local police to block the doors to the college. On September 30, 1962, Meredith, accompanied by U.S. Marshals, tried to enter the building. A riot ensued. Two men were killed. To quell of violence, President Kennedy deployed 3,000 U.S. soldiers to patrol the campus. On October 2nd, Meredith began attending classes. He graduated in 1963 with a degree in political science. In 1966, James Meredith returned to the public eye when he began a civil rights march to encourage voter registration.
