Dit is nie net in Suid-Afrika waar die witman die swarte opgehef en versorg het totdat hulle getalle tot miljoene vermeerder het nie. En soos hulle vermeerder en nie meer onder die hand van die witman regeer kan word nie, verlaat die witman sy eie land omdat sy lewe daar in gevaar is. So het Amerika dit ook beleef en die staat dit ingesien reeds in 1856.

"In 1790 we had less than 800,000 slaves. Under our mild and humane administration of the system they have increased above four millions. Now, sir, out of the fact that these races have been standing together side by side in great numbers in the relation of master and slave, it has followed that the happiness of both races requires that this relation should be kept up. This has been proved by the experience of the British Government itself; and if there were no such experience, it could be proved by any one who knew how to reason upon the principles of human nature. Turn them loose tomorrow side by side, and you would see the black race perishing in the fierce competition which would ensue with the superior and white race, which was dominant around it. You would see either that, or you would see that as they increased in numbers, and population began to press upon the means of subsistence, the white man would leave the country and abandon some of the fairest portions of this continent to the occupation of the Negro."

Robert M.T. Hunter, VSA. Senaat, 12 Junie 1856 (later C.S.A. Sekretaris van die Staat)
