From Indy Star website:
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Filmmaker Spike Lee urged blacks not to support Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice if she seeks the Republican presidential nomination.
Lee, director of "Malcolm X," "Jungle Fever" and "Do the Right Thing," spoke Wednesday on the Purdue University campus. He said everyone should register to vote -- and cast their ballots. And he urged blacks to look beyond race if Rice runs for president in 2008. During his speech, Lee told students they should use education to find their passion in life and then pursue it. He said that his family was an important factor in his success, with his grandmother, who is now 99 years old, helping put him through school by saving money from teaching and her Social Security checks. Lee said that when he entered the film business it was a time when black directors and actors remained a novelty. "When a black film came out, it was a national holiday," he said.
Who is Spike Lee?
and non-blacks should not pay to go see Spikey's movies...
gezzzzzz, if Spike Lee had a brain he'd play with it! LOL
Black people, these are your orders. Disobedience will be punished. This is one of your 'black leaders' talking.
As a white person, I'd like to know who I'm supposed to be taking my marching orders from. I really hope it's Rob Reiner.

Sorry for the link, but FreeRepublic won't allow Indy Star links because of "copyright complaints."
Also, my original post shoud of ended as "plantation servant."
"Who is Spike Lee?"
Spike runs a plantation more commonly known as a movie production house/DNC propaganda system....
I really can't wait for 2008. If Condi does replace Big Time and runs for the Big Girl's Chair, intellectual Three Card Monte dealers like Spike Lee and Aaron MacGruder are going to be out there beating the drums for Hillary and calling Condi a "House Negro". It will be fun.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
this link is wrong. i want to see the reasoning hes giving for not supporting her.
Sane peopls should not back Spike...
Get back on the plantation spike and start picking cotton. That's where you are most comfortable. You can ask marse rat to give you an extra measure of fatback for this attack.
Is Spike Lee black?
Any excuse for a day off, eh Spike?
If he had any, he would challenge her to a no-notes debate on public policy and foreign relations.
My, that is still very polite compared to what the (black) racists called her when she became SoS.
Reasoning!?! Don't you know by now that logic and reason are tools of the white oppressor, a.k.a. The Man?
