George Carlin on "the American Dream" (black humor political video)
21 June 2008George Carlin, arguably, is the greatest and — after Lenny Bruce — most influential stand-up comedian of all time. An Irish Catholic born and raised in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of New York City, Carlin started out as a conventional comedian and had achieved a fair degree of success as a Bill Cosby style raconteur in nightclubs and on TV until the late 1960s, when he radically overhauled his persona.

The room was filled to near capacity, with mostly, it appeared, representatives of the (…) -
