Wow lots of race issues on the board today.

George Foreman was just a kid, so i very much doubt he understood what was going on.

Furthermore, by his own admission he was poorly educated. Better educated people tend to have a better understanding of political issues. His wealth and fame have given him an informal education. Compare his interviews now and then. He is far more articulate these days.

Suggesting someone can be patriotic, when their relatives are being lynched is staggering. He was just celebrating, like any innocent kid his age would do.
