White elitist Democrats have done more damage to the Black
community than any person with a white hood over his head; or any confederate
statute resting on the grounds of any state capitol.
One need look no further than the 2020 Democrat
presidential field.
Democrats have always considered Blacks to be ignorant
and lacking the political sophistication to see when they are being played.
The media appointed Black leaders like Al Sharpton,
William Barber, Maxine Waters, are guilty of willingly being used to sell out
their own community.
You also have radical leftist groups like the NAACP, the
National Urban League, and the Congressional Black Caucus willingly being used
as pawns to destroy their own communities.
As I have stated many times, these groups represent their
membership; not the Black community. There is a big difference.
Have you ever noticed when these presidential candidates
go into the Hispanic community, they discuss “specific” policy prescriptions
that effect this community? Amnesty for illegals, in-state tuition for
illegals, free health care for illegals, and more Hispanic representation in
every aspect of our society, i.e. their staffs.
The same thing for the homosexual community. These
candidates are constantly willing to dilute the standing of Blacks to give more
to other groups. When did homosexuality become a civil right? I
don’t recall anyone asking the Black community about this.
These candidates want to bring homosexuals under the
Civil Rights Act of 1964; again, specific proposed legislation.
Now, juxtapose the above to when they speak to the Black
community. They talk about reparations, “white privilege,” social
justice, or naming a Black as their running mate, with the full knowledge that
this will never happen.
What kind of policy proposal is that? What the hell
does white privilege mean? What is social justice?
How many jobs will these idiotic pronouncements create
for Blacks? How will they prevent one more Black kid from being
murdered? What the hell does any of this have to do with the here and
now?
Why is it that liberals can offer specific policy
prescriptions to every community other than Blacks?
Deep down in their tony, private, ritzy Georgetown
parties, radical liberals really do think Black folks are stupid; and they know
IF and when a few media appointed Blacks like Sharpton or the NAACP raises
their head to complain about something, all they need to do is simply throw
them a few dollars or take a picture with them and they will come down with a
sudden case of laryngitis.
Don’t believe me? I thought Sharpton, the NAACP,
the National Urban League, the Congressional Black Caucus all called for the
governor and attorney general of Virginia to resign after admitting their use
of blackface.
Last time I checked, they are still in office and these
Blacks have moved on to talking about how Trump is supposed to be a racist; but
obviously, it’s ok for Democrats to be racist.
Democrats don’t take Black folks seriously, never have
and never will. They know all they have to do is show up at
these groups’ annual conferences, invoke the name of King and Kaepernick and
keep it moving.
And yes, even the Black presidential candidates are
guilty of the same thing. They are quick to do an Obama. “I am not
running to be the Black president; I am running to be president.”
Remember
when Newsweek called Obama the “First Gay President?” He
didn’t object to that. As a matter of fact, he openly embraced it.
He only objected to being called a Black president. Hmmmm.
Can someone explain to me why Booker and Harris wouldn’t
hire a Black campaign manager? Blacks of today are more concerned about
multiculturalism more than creating opportunities for their own.
Liberals “claim” they care so much about Blacks, but
there has never been a Black to head a major Hollywood studio; homosexuals
claim to be so into equality, but why has a Black never led any of their
homosexual organizations, like the Human Rights Campaign? Why has the Humane
Society of America never had a Black leader? Just a thought.
These Black presidential candidates seem to have more
high-ranking Hispanic staffers than they do Blacks. How they hell is that
even possible?
Say what you will about Jesse Jackson, but without his
two failed presidential campaigns from 1984 and 1988, there would be no Donna
Brazile, Ron Brown, Alexis Herman, Leah Daughtry, Minyon Moore, etc. They
all are rooted in the Jackson branch of Democratic politics.
Al Sharpton and Obama have no branches extending from
their presidential campaigns when it comes to the Black community.
If Blacks don’t open the doors of opportunity for their
own people, why should we expect whites to do for us what we are not willing to
do for ourselves?
This is why Black voters are not taken seriously by
liberals!
