An ad for a Republican running for the late Rep. Elijah Cummings’s (D-Md.) Congressional seat went viral, with the candidate pushing a message that “All Black Lives Matter.”
The GOP candidate, Kimberly Klacik, who is Black, argues in the digital ad that Democrats have failed the people of Baltimore after more than 50 years as she is seen walking through part of the city.
“Baltimore has been run by the Democrat party for 53 years. What is the result of their decades of leadership?” Klacik asks in the ad.
Answering the question she posed, Klacick says the city is in the “top five most dangerous cities in America,” has “skyrocketing” homicide, drug and alcohol deaths and a poverty rate over 20 percent.
“Do you believe Black Lives Matter? I do,” she states, repeating the call from progressive demonstrators.

She should definitely marry Ben Jr.
Elijah Cummings knew how to bring home the bacon for his friends... Baltimore receives more than $23,000 A YEAR FOR EVERY BLACK MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD IN Cummings’ district.
Where does the money go? NOT to black people living there. It goes to ‘non-profits’ run by friends and financial supporters of Cummings. And yeah, I know how those agencies fudge their numbers so it -looks like they’re accomplishing something... They’re NOT.
If this woman told the people the numbers - and Gallup polled people in the black community to see HOW MANY HAD USED A NON-PROFIT IN THE LAST YEAR - AND ‘IF THEY HELPED’ IT WOULD TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT HOW THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS RIPPED OFF BY DEMOCRATS.
Women of a certain age Covet those shoes! And the ability to walk in them!!! Best Wishes to this Bright Young Woman!
Me too.
I’ll donate some as long as I can remember.
Hashtag #ablm?
My first reaction was that the video is superbly produced, carefully scripted messaging. Every shot was obviously very carefully chosen and set up; her appearance, the lighting, backgrounds and camera angles all sending the chosen message.
And damn! I am getting old if that outfit says "Member of Congress"?
Oh, make no mistake. I am getting old but, I had hoped, not so old fashioned.
But here I am. Seventy One...knowing the message is not for me and that the message hits its intended target hard. "Timely and effective" is the phrase I recall from FM6-40.
Ben Carson Jr.?
Ben Lurkin Jr.
I’m too old for someone her age.

Maybe she'll get donations so she can run it on tv.
