Ellison's sordid past associations with Louis Farrakhan -- the long time leader of the Nation of Islam -- will hurt him in Middle America....
In addition to embracing American enemies abroad, Farrakhan has exhibited a penchant for lacing his sermons with anti-Semitic hate speech. Around the time that Ellison was working with the Nation of Islam, for example, Farrakhan was delivering speeches attacking "the synagogue as Satan." He described Jews as "wicked deceivers of the American people" that have "wrapped [their] tentacles around the U.S. government" and are "deceiving and sending this nation to hell." ....
Ellison has struggled to explain his association with Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. He has acknowledged working with the Nation of Islam for about 18 months to organize the Minnesota delegation to Farrakhan's 1995 Million Man March in Washington. However, Ellison insists that he never joined the Nation of Islam and more recently, he has held himself out as a friend of the Jewish people and of Israel. This late conversion coincided with Ellison's decision to pursue elected office in Minnesota, and an apparent realization that his association with the Nation of Islam might hurt his political fortunes. In 2006, he wrote a letter to the Jewish Community Relations Council in Minneapolis, in which he apologized for failing to "adequately scrutinize the positions" of Farrakhan and other Nation of Islam leaders. "They were and are anti-Semitic, and I should have come to that conclusion earlier than I did."

that is why he is perfect.
Ellison is the perfect representative of the democrat party in its current permutation.
Consider this my personal endorsement.
THAT is PRECISELY WHY I hope the Demos give him the gig!
Ellison is perfect for the job! In fact, let’s change the name of the Democrat party to the “Ellison-Pelosi” party.
Republicans will be able to be so much more productive if they don’t have to bother campaigning in the 2018 and 2020 elections.
Dumbo said the same bull dung about Rev. Wrong I mean Wright. The election that keeps on giving!
“Never Interfere With an Enemy While He’s in the Process of Destroying Himself”
BUMP!!!!
And so is the democratic party by embracing someone who represents the Islam ideology that that is trying to destroy America as we knew it. Get a grip on reality fools who support this nonsense...the Muslims are going full out to infiltrate us from within...
Heck, if they re-elected Pelosi as the right person at the right time for Minority Leader in the House, then junior Mad Mo Ellison is surely the right person at the right time for the Chair of the DNC .....ha, ha, ha,.......
You’ll always be the wrong man at the wrong time, Keith Ellison. As a matter of fact, you’re not a man at all.
This Stinker belongs in the DNC.
They deserve each other.
spoke yesterday to a gentleman from Venezuela.
Been here 40 years and became an American citizen 20 years ago.
He goes back to see his parents every few years and he told me he was sickened by what he sees has happened to his country.
I told him his country was the U.S.A. and to be proud.
He teared up and thanked me.
