I was a fan of Cornell West in the old days, in the same way I was a fan of Jimmy Swaggart, Don Lapre, Robert Tilton, and numerous other frauds and mountebanks.
From the headline I thought maybe Tavis Smiley and Allen West were going to be doing a modern day Lincoln-Douglas tour. I’d buy a ticket for that; but C. West and Smiley would be a waste of time..
Hustlers both of em.
When they admit that the way for the black community to prosper is to have intact families consisting of a mother and father, to have at least one parent in the workforce, to value education and respect for oneself and others, then they will be worth listening to.
I’m getting tired of paying for second, third, and fourth generation welfare families. Obviously, welfare is not the best way to handle the situation. I don’t know what the answer is, but obviously, welfare isn’t it,
Sad, but true!!! American Blacks have been destroyed by POTUS Obama. Obama, my Black friends, is an avowed Marxist. He does not give a hoot about you, one iota!!! And...he is not “one of you”!!! He never has felt what you have gone through. I would suggest that you broom him right now, big time, but....since I am a realist at heart, I will keep my mouth shut and let you good folks decide your own fate. Both the world and the nation will not take well and kind to your undying support of this America destroyer and....when the USA goes down, you Black Americans go down with it!!! The point is: You folks are not African Americans, you are just as fully American as most of the rest of us!!! Believing the jive jibberish coming from total failure POTUS Obama means tough times for you for many years to come. Again, broom Obama now, or go down with him!!!
Eat your peas.
Thanks kristinn.
This is the official position of the entire Democrat Party. Excuses.
We should give everyone the degree of their choice (no attendance required) and then give the unemployed their own PBS talk show. That will solve unemployment, right? Oh, and make the minimum wage $200 an hour so we will all be rich. These things are so simple when you live in fantasy land.
Fewer jobs = more poverty.
We have the most anti-corporate and anti-jobs president I’ve ever known so it is no surprise to anyone that poverty abounds. The solution is not to tax “the rich”, which is the only Democrat answer, but to deregulate businesses and implement pro-growth strategies. That will create jobs which will create income which will reduce poverty.
Now, of course, the freeloader class doesn’t want to here this because it means they have to actually work to escape poverty but, folks, this is how it’s done in a capitalist society.
If you want something else, I suggest you swim to Havana.
I hope they visit all the Obamaville Tent Camps...
I wish someone would DOCUMENT all the Obamaville Tent Camps on video.
Hussein is a candidate, officially now, for re-election. He has been told by his puppet masters to look "moderate", so I am not going to be surprised one little bit by his cultists on the left pretending to be upset with him.
Hussein is an Alinsky disciple, and will try to deceive the middle class by allowing (encouraging?) his worshipers on the left to go out and call for him to go even FURTHER in destroying America.
This is all a SHOW, folks. If Hussein can position himself between these people on the extreme left (even though he is really one of them), and the Republicans, he hopes to win re-election.
