C. S. RAFINESQUE was a keen observer,
and wrote many interesting books,
some that can be downloaded from the Internet.

"By Rafinesque's own count, he published 220 "works, pamphets, essays, and
tracts," yet he left as great a bulk in manuscript, most of which was sold
as junk after his death. Best known for remarkable fecundity in divising
scientific names-6,700 in botany alone-Rafinesque also had some insight into
a number of theoretical issues in biology that became important later: the
impermanence of species, the significance of fossils in dating sedimentary
geological strata, and such ecological considerations as plant geography and
plant succession."

Excerpt from a Rafinesque publication.
"A new Religion or sect has been founded upon this belief the Mormonites,
thus called after a new Alcoran <Quran>, or Book of Mormon, (which is not a
Jewish name.) Supposed to be written in gold letters more than 2000 years
ago by Mormon, leader of the American Jews. This Book which no one has seen
nor read but the founder of the sect <Joseph Smith> , the probable writer
thereof, has made the Bible of a new sect. I have tried in vain to procure a
copy of the translation, wherein I could certainly detect a crowd of
absurdities and incogruities. Meanwhile a Sect of Fanatics has arisen
therefrom,"

(Late one night in 1823 Joseph Smith, Jr.,
was reportedly visited in his family's farmhouse in upstate New York
by an angel named Moroni.)

Charles Robert Darwin, (1809-1882)
Constantine Samuel Rafinesque (1783-1840)

For lots of interesting and unique observations, Bing "Rafinesque".

Moroni apparently used a lot of Middle English in his communications
with Smith. It seems a lot more plausible that when his treasure
hunting scam went bad, the terminally crooked Joseph Smith decided to
cook up a new line of bullshit and a far more lucrative use for his
"seer stones."

Speaking of idiots, it's surprising that in the 21st century, there
are still enough of them still around to elect people like this.

Rafinesque anticipated Darwin's (1809 – 1882) concept
of evolution. C. S. RAFINESQUE was a keen observer, and
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constantine_Samuel_Rafinesque>
wrote many interesting books, [see list in Tom's post] and

So, why then are the current US AshkeNAZim crying over
Hitler's Holocaust when the wipeout of the alleged US Native
Indio-Israelites was much larger and longer?

Somewhere there is a remark that the Kike-Braves came

Kikes & kikeophile goyim like Smitty are GREAT story tellers.

Your post was funny though.

Instead of cursing the situation, Helms, make money off
the sorry "believer"-bastards like does the Pope, the
Congressman you mention, Mormon Smitty did and
most of the kikes do.
The latter ones do it elegantly with theirosher tax:
