It's not that we can't change our ancestral bearings, or that the path or purpose of any of our lives is really written in stone.

For even children and wild animals possess the natural dispositions, yet without Intelligence these may manifestly be harmful.

And America saw that and said, 'I think I'll go with the calm black man.'
