I think it has more to do with his whining about the bad reviews and criticisms the book is getting.

Which way?

I wish Hillary were dead and Obama got hit by a car so he was in a deep coma.

Oh - wait. Is it wrong to hope for that?

You're making baby Jesus cry.

GC's granny is gonna be all over you.

I really don't wish for that, Scrooge, and baby Jesus knows. I don't think it's really necessary to explain why I posted that.

So Hillary wants to buy votes at 5000 per baby, and Edwards thinks that soon all young African-American men will be dead or in prison. As noted in the link, there are more African-American men in college than in prison, and of the typical college ages of 18-24, the number of African-American men in college vs. those in prison is 4 to 1. Can you say race baiting trash?

Well with the population crisis hitting Western Europe and Japan right now(Canada and the US are not too far behind either) I can see how this idea might gain some traction(the idealist in me is opposed to this but the realist in me can see some positives) as it does sorta reward making babies(although the reward is to the baby not the baby maker).

Oh, isn't that a grand idea. What about the issue of people dropping babies inside the U.S. so that they can be citizens and then collect monies for them? {border town resident speaking here} Won't this only make it that much worse? Not only the $5,000 to kick things off but then also the social services provided for them? And, I don't know if it would work if the parents would claim it as they file their income tax, some how making sure their parents actually are citizens or something to that effect.

What a mess and you can't really blame those who take advantage of the situation; the loopholes need to be fixed and certain actions not tolerated {like the woman who hid in the church and then said the U.S. was unkind or something....even after it was revealed that she was in the country illegally, worked with a fake social security number, basically disrespecting our laws and then she wants respect?}

Sorry if that is off topic, I only read the last couple of posts....

No.

Better data.

Even assuming that the ratio in the National Review article is correct, the ratio of white men in college to white men in prison would be about 32 to one. Common sense suggests that it's far higher.

In the data you site, there are 3.1% of the African American male population is in prison. This is a far, far cry from all being dead or in prison. It is race baiting, completely and totally.
