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Black Chicagoans expressing outrage against President Obama, union racism, and the Democratic Machine, whom they say no longer represent their agenda.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 cant 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 were 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 thats taking money and shuffling paperwork, but not really reaching out to the community The union wont let us in, as a whole. They will not let us in. They will figure out any way to close the doors to us Im going to say it right out, theyre 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 Chicagos 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 Chicagos 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 quothe 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?
Routine bitching because they didn’t get a share of the boodle. Moron is as moron does, they won’t vote for a change.
If the spirits of the old NAACP could come back to greet them, they would say “Welcome back home, brothers and sisters, to the GOP.”
The Demoncrats have punked them, hijacked them, bribed them to buy a bill of squalid bads (they are not goods).
After I got it together, the name "Jack Kemp" popped in my head.
This is where he yearned to grow the Republican Party, I sense these good folks are ready for the Conservative message.
With Jack as his mentor, can Paul Ryan now take the message (and quiet frankly himself in person) to the South Side and forever change an electorate?
Black Americans need to take this test:

I absolutely love your post!

I have a black, conservative friend who told me that he said, in a high school English essay, that NAACP stands for National Assocation for the Advancement of Communist People. He lived in Detroit. His teacher was black, and all students, in the school, were black. The teacher talked to him privately, and she said, “You shouldn’t say that, around here.” He said, “It’s true. The NAACP doesn’t care about all Blacks. They only care about the most liberal ones.”
The NAACP long ago went into the gutter, but it did not start out that way. It, like most of the rest of American blackdom, got hijacked in the sleaziest, most underhanded way by Democrats. And as a result they didn’t get 40 acres and a mule, they only got the mule cr@p.
