Another black candidate the DNC is trying to railroad. Carl McCall in NY, David Patterson, Harold Ford Jr., the guy in Illinois who go Obama’s seat, and more I am forgetting.
Or as Harry Reid might say, "Greene can't be the Dem candidate. He's not one of our hand-chosen negroes."
Or as Bill Clinton might say, "That boy isn't fit to serve me coffee in a whorehouse."
Why blacks gravitate to the party of slavery instead of the party of freedom is one of history's greatest mysteries.
Here is an unknown, a black man, who has won their primary, and the Fowler and the rest of the (white) leadership in the Democrat party are saying, "Oh, no! We didn't approve him. We approve of the white guy he beat, so Greene must go."
Jim Crow is alive and well in the SC Democrat party. I'll bet they are making former KKK Grand Kleagle, Robert Byrd (D-WV), proud as punch.
I hope the black Democrats in SC will now wake up and recognize that the Democrat party is trying to keep them on the plantation as their ancestors were kept by their owners.; and that they stand up and speak out and tell the party to pound sand. Mr. Greene won the primary, and the white leadership of the SC Democrat party would be smart to just shut up lest they alienate their black voter base.
Oh yeah, another black man jostled out of a top job in the Democrat party was Maynard Jackson. He lost out in his bid to be DNC Chair to Terry McAuliffe, in 2001.
