Henry Louis Gates Jr. talks with James Watson

JW: One sentence was just taken out of my book. It was [that] we shouldn't expect that people in different parts of the world have equal intelligence, because we don't know that. [Some] people say that they should be the same. I think the answer is we don't know. … With the other two sentences, I talked to [the Times reporter] for eight hours. When I read the [quotes], I had no memory whatsoever of ever saying them. Because if I'd said anything like that, it was so inappropriate!

HLG: Well, are you gloomy about the future of Africa?

JW: Not if we educate them. I think we've got to focus on education.

HLG: As soon as you were quoted in The Times,  David Duke posted on his Web site. He said, at last, the smartest white man in the world, the man who identified DNA, has confirmed what we've known all the time. …

JW: I [am appalled by] the fact that that remark was associated with me because I don't believe it. You can't tell me that Ethiopians are stupid. Jesus. So they test very low on IQ, but I know enough of them—they're bright.

You aren't that better off, for considering James Watson "most distinguished living figure in American biology".
Ok. Feel free to give me a top 3 then. I'm interested. The only competition that I can imagine is E.O. Wilson (which has also been called a racist on several occasions due to sociobiology being too scary for libfags).
His "politically incorrect" statements aren't exclusive to niggers, he's just an ass-backwards faggot glorified by stormfags.
LOL @ lame attempt of character assassination. Yeah, he said something about parents being able to eugenically select against faggots in the future if they choose to, causing libfags to cry IIRC. Don't personally think it's possible, but whatever...
