A startling video released today by Jeremy Segal (“Rebel Pundit”) of Breitbart.com shows inner-city Black Chicagoans expressing outrage against President Obama, union racism, and the Democratic Machine, whom they say no longer represent their agenda.
Further, when money is directed at their community, it is funneled through so-called community-based organizations and nonprofits or unions, and never touches the residents themselves.
Community resident Paul McKinley says, “Everything in Chicago is controlled by the Democratic party. Everything in my community is controlled by Black Democrats. There is no Tea Party in my community. There is no Republicans. So they can’t blame the Tea Party.” Later, he says, “I tell you that the liberal agenda is not the black agenda, it is not the family agenda, and it is not the American agenda.”
Another woman interviewed, Jean Ray, said, “They feel they can just take us for granted, and we’re just going to vote Democratic anyways. But if there was a Republican out here doing what I felt they should be doing, I would vote for them.”
It goes beyond party politics. One woman, who describes how any money put into the community simply goes to (non-Black) union contractors, says, “As far as the community outreach, once again, these community organizations that’s taking money and shuffling paperwork, but not really reaching out to the community…The union won’t let us in, as a whole. They will not let us in. They will figure out any way to close the doors to us…I’m going to say it right out, they’re prejudiced against us”:

In an interview with LI, Segal, who conducted the investigation, said that members of the community came to him to look into the rising violence and murder rate in Chicago’s poor black communities. From his post “Exodus: Inner City Blacks Fleeing Obama, Democrats“:
In the course of an ongoing investigation into the root causes of the rising tide of violence and horrifying murder rate this year in Chicago’s most destitute neighborhoods, several video interviews I conducted with black American voters from the community-organized south and west side, reveal a community that is fed up with the status quo–the status quo that keeps these communities ridden with poverty, homelessness, unemployment, dismantled families, and, of course, skyrocketing murder rates. And residents say, “it is the black Democratic leadership implementing a liberal agenda” that is to blame for the ongoing plight in their community.
Already, Segal has received feedback from the community, including this email:
Thank for you exposure to this issue. I live on the southside in Englewood and do not support democratic agendas at all. I live in the heart of urban blight and would never support Obama or his policies. They are TOXIC to neighborhoods like mine. Contrary to popular belief, there IS an informed, conservative presence of working class people in Englewood, Chicago.
Segal said, “‘compassionate’ liberals who see this video and still vote for Obama are guilty of the ultimate hypocrisy. Clearly, the residents of this community can see how harmful continuing to reelect Democrats is to their community.”
The start of a revolution?
it’s about time somebody woke up to the theft and corruption being committed by the liberal agenda
No sympathy from this corner for those who defecate where they live by voting Democrat all the time and suddenly discover it stinks.And the worse thing is they will still vote Dem and Obama after all their whining.
haha
Could it be? They are waking up to the disaster that is cities run by Democrats? New Orleans. Detroit. Philly. Memphis. and many many many more.
They sure didnt feel this way in 2008
let em put their vote where there mouth is.
if they are sincere they will.
I think this is awesome - I wonder if we can recognize the opportunity here or just cling to bitter divides?
At least J.Z. Knight and her demon, Ramtha, that she channels from Yelm, Washington still love Obama and Co.

Voting for a Demoncrat is like losing your virginity to a rapist.
If there was a Republican out there doing what this lady felt they should be doing, then they probably aren't a real Republican.
You done left out an adjective.
I quote Johnny Rotten:
Ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated?
It’s hard - literally and figuratively - to look past that vile woman but note the man’s placard at right. Good Jobs Now, it says.
To him I say:
We give you housing. You trash it and make it a hive of drug activity.
We give you food/food stamps. You buy junk or convert funds for improper purposes.
We give you phones. Enough said.
We give you education. You fail to attend and/or expend any effort whatsoever.
We give you police protection. You oppose the cops and blame them for enforcing the law when a crime is committed.
You are given everything. The only thing missing is a silver platter.
But you still want more. You want a Good Job Now. What have you done to earn or prepare for it? What are your work habits like? What about your writing and speaking skills? Are you computer literate? Do you believe that such questions are racist? What, exactly, do you regard as a Good Job and why would an employer prefer you over someone else?
I know that there are no real answers to these questions, just as the Good Jobs Now crew want nothing to do with working 40+ hours per week, being punctual and respecting peers, customers and managers.
Good Jobs Now? How about study, obey the law and show up on time? No sale? Then shut up.
They’re getting what they’ve voted for over the last 40 years.
Brilliantly perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
