Daniel Carver

Daniel Carver was a white supremacist and member of the "Invisible Empire," of the Klu Klux Klan based in Georgia. Carver was a frequent guest on ''The Howard Stern Show'', where he made many racist and demeaning statements toward the black community. Stern called him in to speak about Obama’s 2009 election, where he said, "The only reason he got in was the color of his skin." It was reported that, later on in the call, he continuously used the n-word to describe Obama and other black individuals. Stern claimed that he allowed Carver to frequent his show to make fun of his beliefs.

On the show, he was considered a member of the Wack Pack and his famous line was "Wake up, white people!"

In 1988 he was brought before the State of Georgia Supreme Court on an act of terrorism. Carver and the KKK had a demonstration in Gainsville, GA in a predominantly black neighborhood and engaged in a verbal confrontation. He then reached into his robe and shouted, " Get back, I'll shoot." He then voluntarily paid 13,000 to the county. The other demonstrators included his wife and child along with another ten Klansmen.

Carver was in another court case in 1987 when he was accused of participating in the harassment of 53 Black marchers by throwing rocks and bottles during their march. The ‘Brotherhood March’ walked though predominantly white Forsyth Country. The invisible empire of the KKK was fined 400,000 dollars, and Carver personally had to pay 30,000 dollars.

Carver’s son was arrested for drug trafficking and Carver was reportedly asked if he wanted an all white jury to which he said, "I don’t know if it makes a lot of difference…in this country, you’re better off being called a child molester than a racist." The arrest was made after finding a small amount of meth in the son’s house.

Carver was removed from the KKK after his 1986 terrorist court case. He was suspended from wearing the white KKK robes and attending demonstrations after 1988.
