I am writing to you with a suggestion that Black Lives Matter (BLM) consider establishing a formal independent political party. The party could be founded on the principle articulated by the founding members of the Congressional Black Caucus in 1971. That formative principle stated, Black people have no permanent friends, no permanent enemies.
just permanent interests. The effort to create an independent Black party, created specifically to address Black issues, is not a new idea among Black people. There are many people, both Black and white who believe that independent parties can make a significant contribution to the current political system as to how this nation of 300 million diverse citizens can be governed in the best interest of all Americans. Many pundits will try to convince you that it is impossible for independent parties to exist in this country. They will argue that the American people seem to be satisfied with just two choices. To the contrary, I believe a politically astute and structured Black independent party, committed and engaged in the electoral process, can prove them wrong.
Earlier this month, Johnson argued for $14 trillion with a T in slavery r

A third or fourth party (Bernie Sanders one) would be a blessing. Split the bad guys and get them weakened by infighting.

He does have a point. Since everyone knows the blacks will vote Democrat in every election, there is no reason for any politician to cater to blacks. The Republicans don’t bother because they believe that they won’t gain any votes if they do, and the Democrats don’t bother because they know they won’t lose any votes if they don’t.

And with that, should it happen, the democrats will never win another election outside of places like Portland where 80% are white and full of let wing white guilt nonsense.

BLM is already a political group of hacks and terrorists.

Joe Bidens racist you aint black comment appears to have been what motivated Johnson to come up with this idea. During a Tuesday morning appearance on CNBC, the billionaire explained, Ive been convinced for a long time that 40 millions African Americans who tend to vote as a bloc in one of the two parties limit their leverage in getting action from both parties. ... I think its time that African Americans form an independent party, not be an appendage of one party or ignored by the other party.
About time. And indeed, being a rubberstamp for the DNC has left them with no leverage, just some graft-supported phonies like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

Saddle ‘em up, Let’s see these racing ponies race against racism. Have half the field run one way and half run the other way.
Don’t we already have a 2 party do nothing system? I thought the Dems were working hard to free the slaves protesting in the streets from their masters. Oh, silly me.
There I go again thinking off the plantation.
and what exactly is in the best interests of the nation and ALL Americans? I don’t think Johnson has a clue and he is wealthy beyond belief. So much for ‘with wealth comes wisdom’.
