Julian Bond: NC is the new Mississippi

Civil rights leader Julian Bond Friday called North Carolina the new Mississippi because of its voter-ID law.

"North Carolina has become the new Mississippi," Bond said on a program that will air Friday night on "Political Capital with Al Hunt'' on Bloomberg TV.

"They've just taken an enormous step backward in voting rights and a series of things because of the domination of Republicans in the House and the Senate and in the governor's chair,'' said, who who is a former chairman of the national NAACP and a former Georgia legislator.

As far as I'm concerned, characterizing any place as Mississippi is a compliment. In my opinion, it's high praise indeed to be compared to the Magnolia State, with its beautiful beaches, stunning scenery and -- above all -- the friendly Christian Conservatives that are found there. One of my old college buddies lives there and every time I've been to Mississippi, my impressions have always been most favorable.

I would allow only net-taxpaying citizens the right to vote. If your taxes paid exceed any government benefits received, you can vote.

I do believe you nailed it.

Several recent developments have dealt significant set-backs to the race hustlers: The Not Guilty verdict in the Zimmerman trial; the SCOTUS ruling on the Voting Rights Act; and more stringent voter ID laws.

The game is slipping away, and when 90% of Blacks no longer automatically vote for the DemoncRAT Party, the RATS will have no use for them.

The racist communist connection with some of the 60’s Civil Rights leadership is exposed for all to see.

The racist and commie connection with the so-called "civil rights" hustle goes back farther than the 1960s. The co-founder of the NAACP in 1909 was none other than the notorious W.E.B. DuBois, exposed by Senator Joseph McCarthy as an anti-American traitor. The treasonous DuBois lived the remainder of his life in Ghana since his American passport was rightly revoked.

Another player in the so-called "civil rights" organization is the well-known leftist laywer, Fred Phelps of the Westboro outfit. Phelps has received numerous awards from racist, anti-American outfits such as the NAACP and others of that ilk.

Does that mean the Blacks in NC are starting to turn more conservative? I’m in S. MS and during a local fair, they were handing out Obama and Romney yard signs. Close to 80% of the Blacks carrying signs had Romney signs. I know - Romney is Satan personified to some here, but try to note the point - they weren’t for Obama.
