Well, this morning I saw an anti-Michelle Nunn (GA Senate) commercial featuring an elderly black man who spoke his (and FR's) mind to his black brothers and sisters. Photo: Michelle Nunn. These people don't care about you. Their policies prove it. You are nothing but a vote to them. Think! Do not vote for these people [photo Nunn].
The ad was paid for by Free At Last PAC. Click. That's the guy from the ad. His name is Elbert Guillory.
Free At Last PAC summary? American black(s) telling other American blacks that "Democrat policies intentionally place and keep black and other Americans perpetually subordinate and dysfunctional, and they've done so and do so my making you reliant on government assistance for everything. Think! Join the Republican Party. From its formation, through emancipation, through Constitutional Amendments, through Jim Crow, through Civil Rights, the Republican party cared about you and the Democrats didn't. Democrats and government dependence makes a little more sense when you think about it, doesn't it."
He must really enjoy the conversation at Thanksgiving dinner with his relatives. :-)

One has to wonder if he switched to Democrat to get elected becasue he knoew he would be Destroyed by the Dem machine....
Fredrick Douglas was an amazing American, he is a very interesting read and one part of american history that is hidden from us because he is so empowering, especially Americans with African Ancestry.
Wow! Very powerful...
That was a great presentation.
He covered all the bases IMO.
Speechless. Nothing more can be said.
THIS guy figured it out...and it ain’t privileged information
bflater
Hope the GOP listens.
God Bless him. He makes you feel positive that things can turn around. He’s a wonderful person and his family are truly blessed to have such a dedicated and honest man in their family. Now, he would have made a wonderful president ( Mr. Guillory) versus the fraud that we have now.
An excellent piece, but the comments are interesting, too. Always the Rat fools lurking to twist, misrepresent, etc.
Wow I got a chill at the end when he referred to the “author”.
Wow! Thanks so much for posting. Will definitely be sharing this one.
May He keep and protect Sen Guillory.
Bless him...I hope more blacks will join the Conservative branch of the Republican Party.
I’m sad Elbert Guillory isn’t in my State - it would be an honor to vote for him.
