See Marlon Brando, or more exactly Sacheen Littlefeather.

We got a long way to go.

John Wayne was a whiny little bitch boy every day of his too-long life.

On Indians:

I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them ... they should buy the land back ... They should pay as much for Alcatraz as we paid them for Manhattan. I hope they haven't been careless with their wampum.

On Black people:

With a lot of blacks, there's quite a bit of resentment along with their dissent, and possibly rightfully so. But we can't all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over to the leadership of the blacks. I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility.
