Outspoken Hollywood actor James Wood suggested on social media Saturday night that perhaps renowned conservative commentator Candace Owens should run for office one day. The nod came after she annihilated Hillary Clinton.
The failed Democrat presidential nominee posted a tweet directed at NBA star LeBron James praising him for being such “a class act.”
.@KingJames is a great family man, incredible ballplayer, gives back to his community, and isn’t afraid to speak his mind. He’s a world class athlete and a class act. We need more like him in this world.

Clinton posted the tweet just days after the opening of the I Promise School, a public school in Ohio for at-risk students funded by a collaboration between James and the local school district.
While James deserves praise for that particular move — not so much for his continued trash-talking of the president — Owens wasn’t impressed by Clinton’s clear-cut attempt at virtue-signaling and shameless pandering.
Just look at the scorching tweet she unleashed:
This is rich.
Your husband locked up more black men than any President in the history of the United States.
You view Margaret Sanger (who wanted to exterminate the black race) as your idol and Robert Byrd (former Klansmen) as your mentor and dear friend.
Shut up, racist. https://t.co/qXAAtvP2kU

That had to hurt, given as everything she wrote was true. Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, jump-started the mass incarceration of black men.
Clinton loves Planned Parenthood, whose founder was an unabashed racist who loathes blacks. And after the passing of Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd, a former Klansman, both Clinton and her husband waxed poetic about how fantastic he was.
Do these facts necessarily make Clinton a racist? Probably not. But Owens chose to call her racist anyway because she decided to use Clinton’s own rhetoric against her. The failed Democrat presidential nominee is the same woman who’s maligned millions of Trump supporters as racists and “deplorables” just because they didn’t vote for her.
Dear Hillary Clinton: How does it feel getting a taste of your own medicine?
It’s this repeated willingness by Owens to give the left a taste of its own medicine that spurred Woods and others on social media to call for her to run for office one day:
I’m starting to think this country needs you to run for office. You are so laser sharp on target.

Yes Candice Owens 2024

This was a well crafted take-down. She didn’t even have to use profanity or call Mrs. Clinton a Nazi.
Candace Owens is quite brave to stand alone against the odds. She risks her life and reputation by being true to herself instead of allowing the race baiters to use her like they are using Lebron James and so many others before him.
You go girl. You have my utmost support. This is how we eventually defeat racism and bring those in the ghettos up to speed so their lives improve then the lives of their children don’t look as bleak as those before them. Self-supporting with a nice large dose of self-esteem equals a much happier American regardless of where their ancestors came from. It’s also how the percentage of black prisoners is reduced in a way that will last.
The first step is to keep them in school and make sure they actually get a quality education that isn’t tainted by Marxism and Progressivism. That last part may be the hardest of all to do. It does no good to create educated militant race baiting angry black or brown people. That would be self-defeating from an American standpoint.
Candace Owens is an up and comer... She forgot William Fulbright - big time racist who was Bill Clinton’s mentor.
Other than that, she’s right on...

Were those laws passed under his watch? Did he sign those bills into law? If the answer is yes then he in fact did that. I'm not saying it wasn't necessary. Something probably had to be done to address an out of control crime problem but if he did sign them he is also responsible.
He might have gotten the praise and credit at the time but on this side of history he also gets the negative blame instead of the good we might have forgotten. Such is the way of time, history, and a changing mindset. History is primarily based on the lens one looks through to view it and from what angle. Like left, right, winners, and losers.
Preaching to choir I know but figured I'd put it out there anyway.
Candace’s tweets to Hillary were fantastic and so true.
He nailed it. So tired of conservatives being banned and suspended on twitter, while leftists can write whatever they want.
“So tired of conservatives being banned and suspended on twitter, while leftists can write whatever they want.”
Yup, i’ve been banned countless times for no reason whatsoever. They’re ratcheting up the bannings and censoring of conservatives for the upcoming elections.
Yes. Bill Clinton ran as a moderate yet started his Presidency trying to get single payer healthcare (which he put Hillary in charge of) and gays in the military. He turned off America so thoroughly that his party got pasted in the 1994 elections, the Contract with America year. In response, Clinton began his famous "triangulation" which basically meant doing whatever he thought he needed to do to get reelected. That included the "Three Strikes" law that said if you were convicted of three violent crimes, no more slaps on the wrist for you. Race was not mentioned in the law, only the number of violent crimes which would make you qualify.
So yes, he signed off on incarcerating repeat violent criminals. Many - most? - were black. So yup, Bill Clinton had a hand in long term incarceration of black men. But given the nature of the law, I consider that one of the good things Clinton did (not the black part, the part about getting violent criminals of any race off the street).
And let’s not forget Hillary’s super-predator remark. We all know she wasn’t talking about a beefed up drone.
Twitter has a “curation process?” Who knew?
Candace, if you run for national office and I’m able, you got my vote. Proudly and loudly.
Wow, a perfect uses of Saul Alinsky’s rules used on a libtard. Rare to see on the right.

“All Slick did was enforce the laws that Congress passed, and yes those black men being locked up were probably criminals anyway.”
So what. The time for using logic and reason against these people is long gone. Sauce for the goose and all that.
