Hillary: Watch out for Deval Patrick
American Thinker ^ | 11/02/2015 | Robert Morrison

Posted on 11/02/2015 7:24:22 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Conservatives who breathed a sigh of relief with Vice President Joe Biden’s removing himself from the 2016 race should stop, look, and listen. There are other potential presidential candidates on the horizon.

Former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick is one. Although he has said no to a run, and although the time is getting late, Deval Patrick is a longtime ally of President Obama. His only criticism of the President is that he does not tout his great successes enough.

Recently, Gov. Patrick put his name on the cover of Winning Marriage. It’s a book about the thus far successful movement to gain marriage rights for homosexual couples. In 2014, this book listed only Marc Solomon as author.

Now, prominently displayed, is the name of “contributor” Deval Patrick.

This is not a “dog whistle;” it’s a foghorn blast from the Boston Light. It’s telling wealthy liberal donors: I was right on this issue that you care deeply about years before Hillary was.

If Patrick came into the Democratic race, he would be formidable.

Gov. Patrick acquitted himself well during the Boston Marathon bombing. He governed a very liberal state for two terms, leaving office with a high approval rating. He was elected as Massachusetts’ first black governor in a state where only 8.1% of voters are black.

Deval Patrick’s successful 2006 campaign was managed by David Axelrod and David Plouffe. Axelrod begins his memoirs -- revealingly titled Believer -- at the Boston inauguration of Gov. Patrick. Axelrod told Plouffe that if they managed this campaign so well, they might do the same thing for Barack Obama in Washington in 2009. The rest was history.

Deval Patrick’s advantages over the now supposedly prohibitive favorite, Hillary Clinton, should be obvious.

My theory is that Obama dampened down the intensity of the email scandal investigation in return for Hillary promising to pick Deval as her running mate.

Time will tell.

It’s hard to believe that anyone could be worse than Hitlary.

“Barack Obama would like to see Deval Patrick, the former governor of Massachusetts and an African-American, run on the Biden ticket,” Klein told John Catsimatidis on AM 970 radio Sunday.

Patrick, who served as assistant attorney general under then-President Bill Clinton, grew up in Chicago, Obama’s former stomping grounds. He succeeded Mitt Romney as governor of Massachusetts.

In that picture, I see the devil, but who is person drawn in black and white, on the right side?

Deval will be forced into the White House somehow. The current Chi-town mobster Bolsheviks’ no. 1 priority is to keep the reins of power in their hands. Patrick is from and of the toxic Chicago communist circle. He was, after all, Axelrod’s ver. 0.9 beige Bolshevik, a practice run for Obama. He can be relied upon to continue to take and carry out the communist cartel’s orders.

“He would be every bit as bad a president as 0.”

This Chicago grifter would be worse. He proved it here in Massachusetts.

Politically and socially speaking, nothing good comes out of this state anymore and hasn’t for a long, long time.

That’s all this country needs: more of black-run America.

Nope. It’ll be Hillary and Julian Castro.

Barak - Lite.

The only good thing about Deval running, is that he could not have Liz Warren as his running mate.

Deval is a bloodsucking vampire who chaired the Diversity Commission for Texaco in the 90s when that company got into a racial incident at HQ.

He toured the company’s many locations espousing hatred for all Texaco employees, condemning them as a group as racists.

A black, well-spoken liberal Activist in the mold of Obama, who hates America.

This man needs condemnation, just like his mentor.

Deval is super, radical racist. I followed him when he ran the civil rights section of the Department of just-us under Clintoon. He loved forcing systematic discrimination against whites and bragged about it, openly and as proud as only a racist could, to leftist audiences in Boston. I despise racial supremacists like him.
