Cynthia McKinney Endorsement (Screamingly, unintentionally funny!)
Third Party Watch ^ | May 18th, 2008

Posted on 05/25/2008 2:42:39 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Greetings of IMANI (FAITH) President McKinney:

May our Divine Creator and Beloved Ancestors find you and the extended family in the best of spirit and health. Welcome back to the land of the original OHLONE people, to what is currently called the “california bay area.” It is so disappointing not to be able to greet you personally this weekend—when WE are commemorating the birthdays of freedom fighters EL HAJJ MALIK EL SHABAZZ (Brother Minister Malcolm X), Mother Yuri Kochiyama and HO CHI MINH—due to a previously-scheduled family commitment. However, it was a pleasure to speak to you briefly after the Green Party presidential candidates’ debate here in January; and, at our march and rally commemorating International Workers’ Day on the First of May.

Like thousands of other activists around the “united capitalist prison states of america (u.c.p.s.a.)” and our world, i want to applaud you for your decades of advocacy and action for truth, justice, reparations, human rights, democracy and peace. As a union organizer in chicago, new york city and the bay area, WE always knew that you, as a member of congress, had our backs on issues from living wages to struggling against the oppressive “welfare reform” and “free trade” agreements. While a leader in our movements for self-determination and reparations, you consistently worked with us to build a powerful united front of Afrikan people (and supporters) here in the u.c.p.s.a. and around our Diaspora to begin challenging the imperialist governments and corporations which accumulate(d) their unjust riches by super-exploiting the labor and land of enslaved and imprisoned workers. WE are all so proud that you stood tall and proud, even though mostly alone in the congress, in demanding the release of and amnesty for our hundreds of imprisoned and exiled Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, Republic of New Afrika, Black Liberation Army, American Indian Movement and Puerto Rican independence political leaders, and called for hearings on the repressive “counter intelligence (sic) programs” past and present. Having lost 155 members of the community/labor alliance that i led in new york, and another 12 members of our N’COBRA, it was you who rightfully and righteously called for a full examination of the role of the fascist regime of Cheney/Bush in the events leading up to, during and following 11 September 6241/2001. And, justice-loving people around the world were extremely encouraged that you introduced impeachment proceedings to expose the continuing crimes against humanity perpetrated by Cheney/Bush and corrupt republican and democratic party officials.

All that said, you have always inspired us. That is why WE have traveled down to georgia to work for your re-elections in past years; and are supporting your current candidacy. Your platform offers all of our movements—for reparations, freedom for political prisoners, workers’ rights, peace, true democracy, justice for the victims of the Cheney/Bush “hurricanes” and floods, immigrant rights, etc.—real hope and an alternative to the corporate republican and democratic parties. And, as i have been expressing to my family, friends, co-workers, extended networks and in my articles, WE do indeed have an opportunity to work for the election of both a person of integrity who is also of Afrikan ancestry and a woman. No, not Senator Barack Obama, a former community organizing colleague and friend; or another former chicagoan, Senator Hillary Clinton. They are both slugging it out to show who can best represent the interests of the minority corporate invaders, occupiers, torturers and war profiteers. Their calls for “change” offer no concrete solutions for the majority of the people suffering in our communities and around the planet. The campaign of Sister President Cynthia McKinney, however, is a major step towards independent spiritual, political and economic visioning, unity and action. Until WE meet again, i wish you and all those assembled today…

Justice, Peace, Love, Prosperity and Continued Blessings!

She doesn’t. To make a long and weird story short, she was defeated in the 2006 Dem primary and has moved to California.

Thanks, I noticed that in the article I posted the picture from, after I had already posted the post you posted in reply to.

If these damned black racists feel so freaking “repressed” and “imprisoned” in the United States — what the hell is keeping them from returning to their beloved “Afrika”.

In a sane world - these idiots wouldn’t show their faces in daylight in any public place....

Modern technology is so cool.

This is a vast improvement from a decade ago. The best we could do then was the gadget that made Slick’s pants fall down on cue.

Just out of curiosity, but does anyone find it ironic that someone who talks about reparations for ‘African Americans’ and knows (one of) the tribes in the local area isn’t talking about how much he owes the tribe for living on their land?

I always get a kick out of the MECHA crowd when they start spewing about this is Mexico’s land at a powwow. The local tribal people are fed up with it, and now turn their backs and unplug the mikes.

mrsmel, that’s really disturbing. what’s even more disturbing is that these groups attach themselves to the DNC.
why do you think that is?

I think the Mexicans have forgotten the whole 'Spanish Conquesta' thing, and the reason they speak - gasp! - Spanish.

If they really want to "go home" they should be getting on boats and sailing to Spain.

They do seem to still have 'conquest' in their blood, however - it's just too bad our politicians are too cowed by PC and the Liberal Left.

“What does this say about the voters in her state that keep putting her into office.”

I'll guarantee they were sitting in churches just like Obama’s, this morning.

I think it’s because the DNC tolerates this kind of insanity - the way people pretended the blow-up doll was a real girlfriend in that silly movie (which I only know about because I read a review of).

I understand from informed Dems that the winner of the Michelle Mybelle Obombination look alike contest is none other than Cynthia McKinney.
