Blacks And Politics

Nobody said they didn't have the right to protest. But your selectively-edited video makes it seem all one-sided.

This is my country and I'm practicing my constitutional right to refute lies put out by bigots and haters. You don't like it, tough.

Christians didn't spit in muslim faces. Christians were not giving the finger and shouting and telling muslims to "fuck off". Christians were not bullying and demanding muslims to shut up.

Go fuck yourself, asswipe.

Ha ha, as if anybody could tell what the "Christians" did in your selectively-edited video, bigot.
 
They are practicing their constitutional right. Too damn bad. Move to Iraq or Iran if it bothers you so damn much. America will do just fine without pissant asswipes like you and your muslim victims trashing this nation.

I will continue to use my first amendment right and speak out against injustice. And whenever you feel like making me move...I'll give you my information, and will be expecting you. Coward.
Fascist.
 
At one of last month's Congressional Black Caucus-sponsored "job fairs," Rep. Andre Carson, D-Ind., told the audience: "This is the effort that we're seeing of Jim Crow. Some of these folks in Congress right now would love to see us as second-class citizens. Some of them in Congress right now with this tea party movement would love to see you and me -- I'm sorry, Tamron -- hanging on a tree." Carson's reference to Tamron was acknowledgment of the presence of MSNBC's black reporter Tamron Hall, who didn't deem it fit to report the congressman's statement. Another black attacker of the tea party movement is Rep. Maxine Waters, who told her constituents: "This is a tough game. You can't be intimidated. You can't be frightened. And as far as I'm concerned, the tea party can go straight to hell." "Let us all remember who the real enemy is. And the real enemy is the tea party," reminded Rep. Frederica Wilson, D-Fla. The Rev. Jesse Jackson said the tea party should be called the "Fort Sumter tea party that sought to maintain states' rights and slavery." Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., in telling a job fair audience to register to vote, said, "Turn the tea party upside down!"

What about Hastings' call for blacks to register to vote? What has it meant? For several decades, blacks have held significant political power, in the form of being mayors and dominant forces on city councils in our major cities, including Philadelphia, Detroit, Washington, Memphis, Atlanta, Baltimore, New Orleans, Oakland, Newark, Cincinnati and many others. In most of these cities, blacks have served as school superintendents, school principals and chiefs of police. Plus, there's precedent setting black political power at the national level, with 39 black congressmen and a black president.

Here's my question: What would you think of someone who claimed that black political power has yielded great results? In these cities where blacks dominate the political machinery, black academic proficiency is on a par with the rest of the nation. Black families are more stable and illegitimacy and welfare dependency are much lower than they were when whites dominated the political machinery of these cities. Also, since blacks have replaced white mayors and city councils, black citizens are murdered less and are far safer on the streets and in their homes. Even more noticeable is the fall in unemployment, particularly since the nation elected a black president. You say, "Williams, anyone making such statements suffers from a special kind of lunacy and ought to be put into an insane asylum!"

It doesn't demean black political achievement to ask what black political power means for the lives of ordinary black people. Put another way, is political power a necessary condition for economic power? Let's look around.

Japanese- and Chinese-Americans faced gross discrimination in our country, but when's the last time you heard them worrying about how many mayors and congressmen they have? Are they in a tizzy over the tea party's call for constitutional government, reduced spending and a balanced budget? By the way, Japanese- and Chinese-Americans have median family incomes higher than white Americans despite having no political power, even in areas where they are most numerous.

Let me be clear. I am not stating a causal link between the fact of black political power and the poor living conditions of so many blacks in our urban centers. I'm simply offering evidence that the expectation that black political power will translate into socio-economic well-being for the ordinary black citizen is apt to be disappointing. Political power empowers -- and even enriches -- the political elite; for them, getting out their constituent vote is the be-all and end-all. It's the economic arena, featured by personal liberty, that best serves the ordinary person.

As long as black politicians can successfully run a rope-a-dope on their constituents by keeping them focused on allegations of white racism and telling them that salvation lies in voting for them, little good will come to their poorest constituency.

The truth hurts libtards.
 
He wasn't raised to be a racist... so he must be an Uncle Tom. If you don't practice racial victimization, 50 years after the civil rights movement, then you are not authentically black.. just ask poet.

Bitch please. Most blacks that I know, aren't victims...they have surmounted odds, and rose above their circumstances, to become successful, model citizens....much to your chagrin. A black that aligns himself with the Republican or Tea Parties, who could care less about them as human beings, is for all practical purposes, "an Uncle Tom". Hello?
 
Don't be projecting your mamas trade on me bitch...just because you can't be sure who your daddy is ain't no reason to be such a hater.

Uh, you forgot, I saw a picture of you, in front of a monitor. You're the very slut you appear to be.
My mother was a stellar elementary school teacher, and a saint. My father was a postman and cab driver. I know my parents. Just because you were the subject of molestation, doesn't mean that you have to project your embarrassment, guilt and bitterness onto others. There is a way out....it starts by forgiving yourself. Only then can you rise above your hate and resentment of others better than you.
 
Looks like Herman Cain won the Florida straw poll, big time. I think it would be so fitting for Obam to be replaced by another black man, one who knows how to produce jobs and build a successful busines. A man who has actually had a job. A man who has some common sense instead of leftist union ass kissing. That would be very cool.
 
Poet is a very sick person. I think he's the sickest person on any political forum I've been on. I've been doing this for over 10 years and I've seen some weirdos for sure. It's sad.
