The small but vocal New Black Panther Party is woefully disappointed in President Barack Obama, and is openly implying that the best way to reach its goals is no longer through “the ballot” but through “the bullet.”

In the Spring edition of the New Black Panther Party (NBPP) newspaper — cover reading “The Ballot or The Bullet: which way for black people?” — NBPP Chairman Malik Zulu Shabazz breaks down the presidential election, concluding the Democratic Party is the “institutional pimp of Black peoples and the Black Nation” and that Obama has “been a real disappointment.”

“Black peoples are the whores and prostitutes of the Democratic Party, and mistreated mistress that is courted in the late of night, but left hanging when it is time for real change in the light of the post election day,” Shabazz wrote, following a dissertation on the need to “Vote for Revolution.”

Shabazz detailed his past hopes for Obama as the first African-American president, noting that Obama has not lived up to them — specifically by continuing the policies of the Bush administration in the so-called war on terror and ignoring the economic plight of black Americans.

“The black community is at large no better off that (sic) before he was in office. We are curious as to what his agenda is for Black people in America and if he even has one,” Shabazz added.

The lead editorial in the 36-page publication is written by the paper’s editor, Chawn Kweli, entitled “4 years and a Bucket of Hope: The Change That Never Came,” which describes the group’s excitement, and subsequent disappointment, after Obama was elected.

“Mr. Obama’s policies have not corrected the economic troubles of America, they have gotten worse,” Kweli wrote. “The debt continues to expand [into the trillions], and the administration’s handling

You mean “the won” hasn't paid off their mortgages yet?

“Can you believe that?” (spoken like Larry the cable guy)

The last thing they’ll ever blame for their problems is their own dysfunctional culture.

LOL - good point.

It obviously doesn’t occur to them just how many “sport utility rifles” ,shotguns ,Deer rifles,pistols are in the hall closets of folks outside the black community & that folks are just plain tired of being blamed for everything that is wrong with the black community & the nasty attitude that blacks often have .

If the bloodshed starts the number of folks who will calmly kill rioters in the streets will be something for the history books . Then the folks who did the shooting will calmly go sit back down at the dinner table & finish the pork chops & mashed potatoes like nothing ever happened.

Republicans, according to Shabazz, are undeserving of African-American votes. He wrote, “Only bootlicking Uncle Toms such as Clarence Thomas and Herman Cain pledge loyalty to this racist party that is overtly contemptuous and hostile to poor and working people, unions, and the like.”

While I would agree with his comments on Democrats, I was figured it wasn't because he suddenly was becoming more conservative. He's not mad at the Democrats liberal policies, he's made the Democrats aren't liberal enough! He wants the Democrats to specifically cater to black Americans as,

“The black community is at large no better off that (sic) before he was in office. We are curious as to what his agenda is for Black people in America and if he even has one,” Shabazz added.

I don't believe in having an agenda for people in America based on color of skin. A President should have plans to try to better the country for all Americans, not a specific agenda for this race or that.
