Black Americans Are Seeing Biden For Who He Is - Dr. Carol Miller Swain

 

 

************************************************************************************

 

@nels IDK what's going on but people need to wake up before 

it's too late.  Every single thing that Biden has done since taking 

office has been detrimental to everybody.  

 

Biden  is a career liar, cheater, plagiarist and corrupt in general. 

He only entered politics/government so that he could line his

pockets.   

 

If you point out his son Hunter's antics, people will come to Joe's

defense and distance Joe from Hunter, but Hunter is Joe's shill. 

 

While Joe was VP, he took Hunter on trips so that they could

accept bribes and payoffs. Hunter was his go-between.

 

Anyone still praising this mess is a fool.  

 

Wake up people. We are being scammed!

Lol....if I were you I wouldn't hold my breath for his list.

In 2020 Black America had a choice between BEEL-ZEBUB (the prince of demons) or SATAN himself...lol.
Now which one would YOU have chosen?
The chief demon or Satan HIMSELF?


I personally didn't vote for EITHER Trump or Biden, because I didn't trust either one.

You need to get behind and support whoever is going to help YOU!

And make your life better.

 

Right now, that's not Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, or any of the

other Democrats.

@Pioneer1

 

You already know the answer so why are you asking me this?

  

I see I'm going to have to spend more time training you up so

that you will know what to do for your own self-interest.

 

Even if all the options are undesirable and your choice is the

lesser of two evils, choose the one that will do the most for you.

Not the one whose BS you fell for because you didn't like the

other one's tweets.

 

Stay tuned, more lessons are coming up.

You have to decide what's best for you but you all need to 

stop being on autopilot and start thinking outside the box 

when it comes to casting your votes.  

 

Do you see the crap that Biden is trying to pull on us with 

the $600 transactions?

Well I did have my fingers crossed.  

 

Anyway, I had to refresh my memory on the President’s record so far - I haven’t seen anything he’s done except clean up the ish left by the last administration.

 

This is what the democrats do for the first two years of their administration - especially after the GOP raids the treasury, pass laws for their cronies and reduce taxes on the wealthy.  

 

Here’s a list of President Biden’s signed executive orders.  He even issued an EO for the Human Rights crisis in Ethiopia - - 

 

Some of the bills he’s signed into law overturn 45’s harmful laws against the environment and working class. 

 

I like that he overturned 45’s Usury law and put the cap back on how much payday lenders can charge “the poors”. - those exorbitant interest rates usually hurt black communities the most.   And he also overturned a Trump law that made it easier for employers to retaliate against workers who filed EEOC claims  - that is direct win for the black community. I know because I once had to file a claim against my television station.  

 

So… it would be interesting to learn who we should be checking out next.

Yes, Joe Biden has indeed repeatedly stuck his finger right in the eye(s) of black America and the country as a whole for many many decades. Until liberal black America in particular, jettisons the mainstream media, the deep state and the blame racism mentality, things are not going to get any better.

Here in the US, folks are mainly divided into two camps politically...Democrat or Republican (GOP). 

 

On the surface it looks like the two parties have different platforms (liberal or conservative).  Yet, they share the same ideology which is the maintenance of white supremacy.

 

Both parties are juggling balls i.e. platform issues.  While folks are pre-occupied with the balls in the air, they're not watching the sleight of hand tricks happening below.

 

i've never been under the illusion that either party has ever given a d8mn about the peple.  Both parties make decisions based on what's good for business.  That is the business of maintaining white supremacy.

 

Regardless of who occupies the White House, they are two sides of the same coin.  Follow the money.

 

POTUS PJB (Papa Joe Biden) is the flip side of the same coin once occupied by Agent Orange.  Different agenda.  Same paymasters. 😎

You're steady trashing Joe Biden and telling us how much of a racist he is, and most of us (I know I do) AGREE with that.
But I've repeatedly asked you WHO should Black folks have voted for?
WHO should Black folks support and vote for now?
...and you duck and dodge and ignore the question.

You've made your point about who Black folks should NOT vote for, but the question still remains....WHO should Black folks be voting for?

Ok. Except I think this species sometimes wears 'white' skin.  Sometimes they may choose other skin colors to advance their agenda but calling them people, folks, or even human is a stretch. 😛
 
As you mentioned, LEGERDEMAIN only occurs in plain sight. They can't help but record in writing all of their dastardly deeds. So anyone who doesn't read is S.O.L.. because their hubris forces them to keep 'history' - I guess it's necessary for the others who join them at a later date. Anyone with excellent reading comprehension, the ability to connect the dots and detect change will always stay ahead of the curve.

The thing is....
They won't produce a list of candidates because they know every Republican on that list will be WORSE than Joe Biden...lol
 

I've been going back and forth with Black Republicans all over the internet for the past 11 months or so.
The White Republicans are USING them to harass and troll other Black folks...Democrat or not....to vex the Biden Administration and whip up support for 2024

 

They have 2 strategies.

-Either get Black folks to vote Republican.
-Or tell Black folks to stop voting at all....knowing that will make the Republicans more likely to win

 

But they know most Black folks can see the Republican party as the OPENLY racist party and they know better than to tell Black folks to vote for Trump.
That would backfire.
So they just go around waiting on anything bad to happen to Black folks and then blame Joe Biden for it.

 

A Black man is shot in St.Louis....blame Joe Biden.


A Black child is killed in a tornado in Texas....blame Joe Biden.


A Black woman dies in California during child birth....

Anything negative that happens to Black folks, these fools are grabbing it and running around harassing and ridiculing other Black folks over it as an excuse to blame the Democrats and get them to either vote Republican or don't vote at all.

YEP! It worked in 2016 - and they even put together a documentary showing how well it worked. 

The documentary showed how they profiled black voters in key states. They identified the weak minded, the thinkers, individualists, and one other type and then convinced them not to vote. I guess even weak-minded, but engaged, social media users couldn't be persuaded to vote for Trump.

Kind of like a hypnotist can only get a subject to do something they might be inclined to do but not something you'd never do.  

 

  @Troy ,can we get a "Yep" button to go with  "like," "thanks," "laugh," "sad," and  "confused.")  I don't like everything I agree with.

The question is unanswerable. 

 

But, I believe Bernie Saunders could have made a real difference.  Given how easily he was cast aside by the Democratic party in favor of a Biden/Harris ticket -- who no one was excited about -- I can only assume this was because Bernie was going work for the people as opposed to the plantocracy the way Obama did. 

 

Today, perhaps for the life of the Union, it is virtually guaranteed that anyone with the wherewithal to get into the office of the presidency does not truly represent the people -- especially the Black ones.

 

The interests of the wealthy are ALWAYS taken care of, that is why wealth inequality -- even between white people -- continues to grow.

If they can just get Black folks NOT to vote, the Republicans feel they've done their job quite well.

 

They really don't care too much for the Black vote themselves;  because they don't want to hear any complaining from Black Republicans who may feel they are obligated to do something for them since they voted.

They really want Black folks OUT of the political picture all together.  
So just keeping Black folks out of office and unable to vote is their goal.


The Democrats aren't much better.
Which is one of the reason I'm not a Democrat today.
You get tired of constantly having to choose the LESSER of two evils.


However I would say that there are more decent, kind hearted, and socially conscious Black folks IN the Democrat party (for whatever reason they are still there) than in the Republican party.  So I tend to incline towards them more so.

But I recognize that both are actually different sides of the same coin with the same people running both camps at the very top.



 

 

 

 



Troy

The question is unanswerable. 

 

How so?

You mean he can't even provide a list of current politicians who he thinks would have been better for Black people than Joe Biden?

Then what's the point of even telling Black people NOT to vote for him then?

 

He didn't have to tell me btw...lol...because I didn't vote for either one of them.

Well.....I don't trust Bernie Sanders.
For a number of reasons.

 

One of the reasons I don't trust him is because he knows he won't win the Presidency but continues to run...which takes votes away from a Democrat who can.
Which makes me wonder if he's secretely working with Republicans.

 

Secondly, he's from Vermont....a nearly all White state.
How can someone who comes from a nearly all White state even KNOW about Black and Latino issues let alone have our best interests in mind?  
It's easy to PLAY Liberal and SAY Liberal things when there aren't any Black folks in your state to deal with.  But let me see how they fair when they're under your governance.

 

 

And did you see the way he flat our rejected monetary Reparations for Black people?

 

 


He didn't hold his tongue about it.
Which tells me that he can be pretty brazenly insensitive toward Black issues if he is elected to national office.

I actually AGREE with the substance of what he said.
That there are better ways to help Black people than JUST writing out a check.
But the way he said it and the fact that he doesn't support Reparations....but is considered a champion among "Progressives", is a bit disturbing.

If (by chance) you're stuck in the Democrat party doldrums, then perhaps it's time to start thinking Republican, Independent or otherwise. If you study history, you'll find that it was the Democrat party ideology that drove the KKK and its influence in many respects, and much more. Setting the irrelevance of race aside, think for yourself and decide if you're open to new ideas, or are you simply accepting of rehashed failures. And remember, there are a lot of people and politicians out there who will try to make you fail. Prove them wrong with independent thinking and applied intelligence that is beyond their expectation and the norm. Politicians come a dime a dozen, but true leaders are worth their weight in gold.

It's not my job to tell anyone who to vote for. It's their job to figure that out for themselves. I'm long past trying to drill common sense into people's heads. They're supposed to be adults, so let them use their best judgment. I've been around the block many times, and I've learned to keep the flamethrower in a safe place at the ready. If you're interested in having a mature dialogue, then I'm open to that. However, if you venture out to far on thin ice, the temperature may rise much faster than you think.

IT IS SUGGESTED THAT BLACK AMERICAN&ALL DEMOCRATS WILL SUPPORT THOSE POLITICIANS WHO ARE NOT ON THE SIDE OF THE JANUARY. 06,2021 ENEMIES OF THE COUNTRY-AND-REAL-CULPRITS OF AMERICA DEMOSTIC TERRORRISM: ALSO THE DEMS WHO ARE FIGHTING IN THE U.S. CONGRESS&DEMS IN LOCAL/COUNTY&STATE GOVERMENT SUPPORTING B.L.M. POLICIES&PRESIDENT BIDEN'S B.B.B.(BUILD BACK BETTER) FOR ALL PEOPLE!!!:
***DONT WANT TO PASS POLICING REFORM WHEN THEY ARE KILLING BLACK PEOPLE;
***HAVE DENIED GUN SAFETY CONTROL AFTER SANDYHOOKS(Y'ALL SANDYHOOKS);
***CREATING RACIST BLACK-CODE LAWS/REFUSING TO SIGN PROTECTION LAWS FOR CIVIL RIGHTS7VOTING RIGHTS!!! 
***Lower Child Care Costs
For 57 percent of children under six, there are no good choices for child care where they live. Only 44 percent of four-year-olds are served by public preschool programs. Nearly four in five private sector workers have no access to paid family leave. The President’s plan would ensure that no middle-class family pays more than 7 percent of their income for high-quality child care up to age 5—and that working families most in need won’t pay anything—saving the average family $14,800 per year. President Biden will also make universal preschool a reality, partnering with states to offer every parent access to high-quality preschool for 3- and 4- year-olds in the setting of their choice. Fully implementing this investment is projected to benefit five million families and save the average American family $13,000 per year. And the Build Back Better Agenda would institute 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave, to help improve the health of new mothers and reduce wage loss.
***Lower Higher Education Costs
Education beyond high school is increasingly important to succeed in the 21st century economy, even as it has become unaffordable for too many families. The Build Back Better Agenda would provide two years of free community college—boosting the earnings of low-wage high school graduates by nearly $6,000 per year. President Biden’s plan will also increase the maximum Pell Grant award by almost $1,500, and invest billions in subsidized tuition for low- and middle-income students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and minority-serving institutions. The plan also invests in evidence-based strategies to strengthen completion and retention rates at institutions that serve high numbers of low-income students, particularly community colleges.
***Lower Prescription Drug Costs
Americans pay 2-3 times more for their prescription drugs than people in other wealthy countries, and nearly 1 in 4 Americans struggle to afford prescription drugs. President Biden’s plan will lower prescription drug costs for Americans by letting Medicare negotiate drug prices, so consumers are no longer at the whim of pharmaceutical companies.
***Lower Health Care Costs
The Build Back Better Agenda would reduce health insurance premiums, saving 9 million people an average of $50 per person per month, and add dental, vision, and hearing coverage to Medicare. By closing the Medicaid gap for low-income Americans, the President’s plan would help 4 million uninsured people gain coverage. President Biden’s agenda would also expand home care for older and disabled Americans, while improving the jobs and the pay of the home care workers who care for them.
***Lower Housing Costs
Driven by the largest shortfall of new housing units in 50 years, rents and housing prices continue to increase—with some 10.5 million renters paying more than half their incomes in rent. The Build Back Better Agenda will use tax credits and government financing to bolster affordable and resilient housing, supporting the construction or rehabilitation of more than two million homes.
***Tax Cuts for Families with Children
One third of all adults with children struggle to pay their usual expenses. The American Rescue Plan increased the Child Tax Credit from $2,000 per child to $3,000 per child for children six and over and $3,600 for children under six. The Build Back Better Agenda will extend the Child Tax Credit expansion in the American Rescue Plan, providing nearly 40 million households. This tax cut is the single largest contributor of the plan cutting child poverty nearly in half.
***Tax Cuts for Workers Without Children
The President’s agenda extends the American Rescue Plan’s increase to the Earned-Income Tax Credit from $543 to $1,502. This will benefit roughly 17 million low-wage workers, including cashiers, cooks, delivery drivers, food preparation workers, and child care providers.
***Workforce Training
The U.S. has chronically underinvested in workforce development, and millions of jobs have been going unfilled in growing sectors such as construction and health care. Through high-quality career and technical education pathways and Registered Apprenticeships, President Biden’s Build Back Better Agenda will invest in training programs that will prepare millions of American workers for high-quality jobs in growing sectors.
***Clean Energy Jobs
When President Biden thinks about climate change, he thinks jobs. To position the U.S. to tackle the climate crisis and advance environmental justice, the President’s plan would create good-paying, union jobs, establish an energy efficiency and clean energy standard, expand and extend clean energy and electric vehicle tax credits, and enlist a new Civilian Climate Corps.
***Investments in Teachers and Schools
Even before the pandemic, our schools faced an estimated teacher shortage of 100,000, undermining the education of our children and students of color in particular. President Biden’s Build Back Better Agenda will address teacher shortages and improve teacher preparation, including through teacher residencies and Grow Your Own programs that produce better outcomes and develop more teachers of color. It would expand free school meals to an additional 9.3 million children during the school year and help families purchase food during the summer. And the President’s plan also invests in upgrading school infrastructure, so that we have cutting-edge, energy-efficient, resilient school buildings with technology and labs that will prepare students for the jobs of the future.

I held the GOP precinct committeeman office for my Illinois precinct  from 2006- 2008. The TEA PARTY and Q ANON ( still in its infancy) hadn't yet infiltrated the GOP nor had the GOP gotten into bed with other countries seeking to destabilize an already shaky nation teetering on the brink.   That GOP is gone - those who vote independent mostly caucus with the democrats now... And the reason why is because the democrats still write legislative  policy and do their best to get it passed into the law.  Not sure what the government is doing - check here ... It is called the FEDERAL REGISTER  a website that you can READ for yourself to find out what's going on instead of saying "JOE BIDEN IS BAD - DEMOCRATS BAD... REPUBLICANS BAD... INDEPENDENTS BAD.   🙄

 

EVERY legislative proposal (BILL) that has become law since January 21, 2021 - has been passed by CONGRESS (GOP/DEM/IND SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES) and signed by PRESIDENT BIDEN.. SO unless you can share with the class what NEW LAW, you all hate and why...

Facts.  The two party system is a shell game.  The Dems and GOP are playing both sides against the middle. 

 

Money runs American politics.  Check out the campaign contributions on both sides.  Billions of dollars. 

 

In national politics, voters are almost the equivalent of fans in the stands at a sporting event with two teams playing.   

 

Remember last year at the height of the pandemic and there were no fans in the stands.  They still played the games.

 

We need new political parties that have not been corrupted by special interests...money.

 

I know it won't happen in my lifetime but I'd like to see a national election with about 20 candidates for POTUS.😎

@nels  

 

I have normally voted for the best candidate, which is usually a republican, 

but not always.

 

I voted for Obama because I thought John McCain was a sorry individual, 

he ran a pathetic campaign, I was tired of hearing him talk about having 

been a P.O.W. in every speech. He was corrupt, the way he treated his

first wife was cruel, and my Husband, who is an Army veteran, had the

same criticisms about his military service as Donald Trump.  

 

We just did not like McCain.

 

Obama was different, he brought something new, he had that charisma,

and he promised to make a change.

 

When McCain suspended his campaign because of a Congressional budget 

crisis, Obama drove on and said a president must have the ability to manage 

multiple priorities.  That sealed the deal for me, and my Husband agreed.

 

When Trump announced he was running for president, I preferred Hillary.

But as the campaign season progressed, you could see that Hillary was just 

as corrupt as her husband.  She was so bad that she didn’t even realize how 

terrible her image was to decent citizens.  

 

She lost all the debates to Trump but as soon as the debates were over,

CNN and MESSNBC declared that Hillary had won, so people who did not

even watch the debates thought that Hillary won the debate.

 

Hillary made up that whole farce about Russia and Trump to win the election,

and that lie lives on today even though it has been debunked.  She had no 

room to talk when she called the public DEPLORABLES.

 

I voted for Trump because he got things done.  He didn’t just run his mouth, 

he made things happen.  Looking back at his record, he did more for people 

than any other president, ever.  People just prefer to ignore all that and bash 

him because that is what is expected and accepted.

 

I don’t understand why Blacks vote against their own self-interest time and

time again. They can always be counted on to vote for democrats to the

point where the dems don’t even bother pandering to Blacks anymore.

@ProfDFACT:  This happens nearly every presidential election.  In 2020, 1212 candidates registered for the US presidential candidacy. Link: https://ballotpedia.org/List_of_registered_2020_presidential_candidates

 

And if Americans were serious about voting - someone other than a democrat or republican could actually win the presidency. And we wouldn't have to amend the constitution either.   Although it takes 270 electors to become president-elect - if none of the candidates got to 270 ...then the HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVE would decide who would become president.    Link: https://history.house.gov/Institution/Electoral-College/Electoral-College/

 

The power has always been in the hands of the people.   The people simply won't participate - and allow excuses to absolve them of their civic duties.  

 

ADDENDUM

I wrote about the Presidential electoral process in 2016. Literally, any US citizen over the age of 35 can become president - but it's up to the 163 M+ registered voters.  Link: https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2021/04/record-high-turnout-in-2020-general-election.html

And we wouldn't have to amend the constitution either.   Although it takes 270 electors to become president-elect - if none of the candidates got to 270 ...then the HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVE would decide who would become president.    Link: https://history.house.gov/Institution/Electoral-College/Electoral-College/

 

The power has always been in the hands of the people.   The people simply won't participate - and allow excuses to absolve them of their civic duties.  

 

 

You're absolutely right. 

 

It starts with dismantling the two horse race.  We might not need  the electoral college either. 

 

In a free and fair election, computers are capable of counting the popular vote and declaring a winner. 😎

Mel, to be clear, I want 20 candidates on the ballot.  😁

 

 

Ok!  Yes! But that's up to the states. At least 11 presidential candidates made it on states' ballot in 2020. Check it out here  Link: https://ballotpedia.org/Presidential_candidates,_2020  My ballot here in Georgia had 4 candidates.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) it's not about dismantling the two party race it's about changing the U.S. Constitution. It would require 3/5 of the congress and 3/5 states to change this part of the constitution Established in Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, the Electoral College is the formal body which elects the President and Vice President of the United States.  

 

So yeah maybe not in our life time BUT we could definitely do the first. We the people could get at least twenty presidential candidates on each ballot. We did it in Illinois (I think they had 6 during one election)  and it happened in Georgia in 2020.

Yeah, I've dealt with Negroes like this all  over the internet.
All up on social media, on facebook, on Youtube...in chat rooms and in the comment section trying to sway and confuse Black folks.

I know their strategy.
To sew doubt....indifference...CONFUSION in the minds of Black voters.
When a person is scared or confused....like a deer caught in headlights...they STAND STILL.

They know if they come RIGHT OUT and say "vote for Trump" or "vote Republican"....that will spark a debate by someone challenging them.
So they just put a seed in your mind to not vote at all.

That's good enough to to ensure that a Republican will get in the seat.

 

The only place they really didn't try this tactic TOO much with is in the California Governor's race.
If you notice, Black Republicans didn't say TOO much about Gavin Newsom outside of expressing their dislike for him.
But very few Black Republicans/Conservatives showed any support for Larry Elder...who is a Black Conservative himself and pushes all of the right-wing rhetoric that goes along with that role.

 

Why not?

Because the right-wing Masters who gives these Negroes their orders told them NOT to.
Right-wingers are RACIST..first and foremost before anything else.

 

California Governor is a VERY powerful position.
It puts you in line for the Presidency after a couple terms.
They may not like Newsome but they'd rather see a moderate and somewhat liberal leaning WHITE man stay in that position before letting a handkerchief head Coon like Larry Elder get in it, lol.

Anything might happen.....
Elders might get in that position...start feeling a little powerful and FLIP THE SCRIPT on them.

It's not my job to tell anyone who to vote for. It's their job to figure that out for themselves. I'm long past trying to drill common sense into people's heads. They're supposed to be adults, so let them use their best judgment. I've been around the block many times, and I've learned to keep the flamethrower in a safe place at the ready. If you're interested in having a mature dialogue, then I'm open to that. However, if you venture out to far on thin ice, the temperature may rise much faster than you think.

This argument is vote for republican or make sure your vote doesn't count in the presidential election.

Well, it certainly appears (to this AALBC participant) that they've got their hooks deep in your head. One thing about the brainwashed, they can't separate the gray matter from the dirty water. If you don't understand that you've been gaslit by the Democrats, the RINOs, the Left, the CCP, the Oligarchs, the Globalists, the Mainstream Media and the like, then there's little value in trying to mature this exchange.

 

I did not resume engaging in discussions on these boards for the fun of it; I decided to see what was going on and perhaps bring some folks around to using their situational awareness skills to pay more attention to the current political and social arenas. When you don't pay attention, you don't know what you've lost until it's gone. In your case, I'll spare my fingers a few extra keystrokes on this thread.

 

P.s., Get a better (honest) results map, you're going to need it. And, if you think Joe Biden got 81 million votes and the guy can't even fill up a 7-Eleven, then I've got some prime oceanfront real estate for you in Topeka, Kansas, for sale at a discount.

This is more rhetoric.  More  than 160 million voters registered in the 2020 Presidential election - U. S. census reports the turn out supports the number of votes cast in the election - 81 million people most likely believed going to “COVID parties weren’t a good way to spend their time.  Serious voters don’t go to rallies during a pandemic.

 

What was necessary - standing in lines at polling places  My wait time was about an hour - that’s how serious we are about voting in my state.   That’s how we wrestled GA  from the man who thought it was ok to trample over united states constitutional rights - 

 

However the Saturday following the election when the electoral votes tallied over 270 -  coast to coast people start spontaneously  dancing in the streets.  So rallies for candidate JB maybe not, but  a President-Elect  JB could fill a 7 - Eleven across the country and even the world, eh? 

 

There’s nothing you’ve written , which wasn’t much, that I haven’t heard, read, or seen.  

 

I deal in facts, and results. 

 

-And you didn’t even bother to supply one fact to support your argument.  

 

Heck, you even waffled and back-tracked on your own suggestion and then tried to raise the stakes.  

 

When you started with the name-calling, you showed your hand.

 

Glad you know it’s time to fold.  #Bye

Laughable. It's quite obvious that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, whatsoever. Sheer ignorance is an understatement, to say the least; don't speak to what you don't know. There is so much in the ridiculous explanation you provided that it calls into question your understanding of politics and voting, at a minimum. Even attempting to reply to the gaslit-induced response you gave would be a waste of time, and I'm certainly not going to try and convince or persuade you otherwise.

 

Joe Biden actually lost his sorry lying corrupt butt off to Donald Trump in a massive landslide and darn near every Democrat out there knows it (literally), except perhaps for you and your faithful fellow believers; keep that CNN and MSNBC channel pipeline going, folks. As a software, systems, hardware and process engineer with many many decades of experience across more than 20 business and government verticals, it amuses me that people make up their own set of facts to support their irrational arguments. I watch them crash and burn all the time.

 

Having worked for one of the largest voter registrars in the country and having an unbiased thorough understanding of exactly how clean elections at all levels (i.e., federal, state, local / municipal) work from end to end (e.g., planning, design, architecture, acquisition, procurement, staffing, vetting, vendors, ballots, tabulators, statistics, servers, networks, routers, cryptology, etc.), including the courts through which they adjudicate, the gap between what you think you know and what actually happened on November 3, 2020, is practically unimaginable. I have no problem taking heat in any forum and welcome 'real' challenges. However, when you demonstrate the logic of a scarecrow trying to take a shortcut through a brush fire, you lose your audience, your credibility., and more. Bounce back as much as you want, but you will never win this argument, at least with me.

 

Keep the gaslighting coming and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

With so many people having access to similar knowlege and information, it should be easier to determine whether or not "free and fair elections" have been compromised one way or another. 

 

Meanwhile, there's enough conspiracy theories to keep folks dazed and confused; debating on the internet, TV and watering holes around the country.  Politics has become a circus and magic show for adults. 😁😎

I'm not surprised.  Between the stem cell injections and Botox shots, he has to get out of dodge before he falls asleep and/or starts melting.

 

A 35 year old person can run for POTUS.  Yet, the last two have been septuagenarian. By no means am I advocating age discrimination.

Yep. I called Benny with that lisp a modern day ambulance chaser under the guise of civil rights. But, I have no contempt for him. Get paid. Help others get paid too. Do something with the money

 

I'm pro-Black to a fault but I still call balls and strikes as I see it. Anybody can get it.

 

When my people do well, I'm proud. When n8gglets are f8cking up, I acknowledge that too. I want black folks to win on all levels...constructively.

Maybe I should clarify my post.....
Actually I didn't have YOU or anyone on this forum in mind when I said "you" called our brutha an ambulance chaser......I've heard MANY Black folks say that about him, lol.
I was talking about our people collectively.

My point that NEITHER Trump nor Biden was putting money in the pocket of Black folks the way people like Ben Crump and Lee Merritt have done.
Yet they are often seen as pariahs in the community.



But as far as Ben Crump.....

Look, the brother is doing his job and winning cases.
He's not a Criminal Defense lawyer....he's a Civil lawyer.
Most people don't understand there's a difference and they keep asking him to lock people up as if he can do that.
He's doing his job....which is winning civil suits or getting settlements.
As long as he's getting Black folks paid, I can't complain TOO much about him.


No he's not the most articulate and charming person in the world, and they say he's getting money from these cities to "shut up" the families of the victims....
Well, that may be true but that's not stopping the REST of the community from speaking out and doing something about it.
I think a lot of this hatred toward our brother is jealousy because THEY aren't the ones getting the millions, I know how petty a lot of our people can be.

I'll take Crump and Merritt UNTIL some better lawyers come along and step up to take their places.

Politicians aren't enriching black folks because we don't have enough of an economic infrastructure in place to take advantage of government contracts, small business loans, subsidies, tax breaks,  etc.

 

Otherwise and unfortunately,  it looks like the primary way  black folks get a windfall of cash is by accident (killed, injured, discrimination, etc.) or by luck

...hitting the lottery. 😎

Truth.
 

I had quite a few people acknowledge to me that yeah Crump and Merritt are getting Black folks paid, but it's at the expense of them losing their lives.

But hell, even before Crump and Merritt came a long a lot of Black folks were getting killed and weren't getting shit out of it.
Atleast the family is getting SOMETHING now even if they don't get their loved one back.

 

I say get it however you can get it in this society.
As long as you aren't hurting other people in the process.

All money you  get WITHOUT violating other people is clean money in my opinion.

("BUILD BACK BETTER")THAT WILL SUPPORT ALL AMERICANS&NO LONGER JUST THE 1%RICH!!! 
PRESIDENT BIDEN&THE DEMS SUPPORT!!! 
***Lower Child Care Costs
For 57 percent of children under six, there are no good choices for child care where they live. Only 44 percent of four-year-olds are served by public preschool programs. Nearly four in five private sector workers have no access to paid family leave. The President’s plan would ensure that no middle-class family pays more than 7 percent of their income for high-quality child care up to age 5—and that working families most in need won’t pay anything—saving the average family $14,800 per year. President Biden will also make universal preschool a reality, partnering with states to offer every parent access to high-quality preschool for 3- and 4- year-olds in the setting of their choice. Fully implementing this investment is projected to benefit five million families and save the average American family $13,000 per year. And the Build Back Better Agenda would institute 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave, to help improve the health of new mothers and reduce wage loss.
***Lower Higher Education Costs
Education beyond high school is increasingly important to succeed in the 21st century economy, even as it has become unaffordable for too many families. The Build Back Better Agenda would provide two years of free community college—boosting the earnings of low-wage high school graduates by nearly $6,000 per year. President Biden’s plan will also increase the maximum Pell Grant award by almost $1,500, and invest billions in subsidized tuition for low- and middle-income students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and minority-serving institutions. The plan also invests in evidence-based strategies to strengthen completion and retention rates at institutions that serve high numbers of low-income students, particularly community colleges.
***Lower Prescription Drug Costs
Americans pay 2-3 times more for their prescription drugs than people in other wealthy countries, and nearly 1 in 4 Americans struggle to afford prescription drugs. President Biden’s plan will lower prescription drug costs for Americans by letting Medicare negotiate drug prices, so consumers are no longer at the whim of pharmaceutical companies.
***Lower Health Care Costs
The Build Back Better Agenda would reduce health insurance premiums, saving 9 million people an average of $50 per person per month, and add dental, vision, and hearing coverage to Medicare. By closing the Medicaid gap for low-income Americans, the President’s plan would help 4 million uninsured people gain coverage. President Biden’s agenda would also expand home care for older and disabled Americans, while improving the jobs and the pay of the home care workers who care for them.
***Lower Housing Costs
Driven by the largest shortfall of new housing units in 50 years, rents and housing prices continue to increase—with some 10.5 million renters paying more than half their incomes in rent. The Build Back Better Agenda will use tax credits and government financing to bolster affordable and resilient housing, supporting the construction or rehabilitation of more than two million homes.
***Tax Cuts for Families with Children
One third of all adults with children struggle to pay their usual expenses. The American Rescue Plan increased the Child Tax Credit from $2,000 per child to $3,000 per child for children six and over and $3,600 for children under six. The Build Back Better Agenda will extend the Child Tax Credit expansion in the American Rescue Plan, providing nearly 40 million households. This tax cut is the single largest contributor of the plan cutting child poverty nearly in half.
***Tax Cuts for Workers Without Children
The President’s agenda extends the American Rescue Plan’s increase to the Earned-Income Tax Credit from $543 to $1,502. This will benefit roughly 17 million low-wage workers, including cashiers, cooks, delivery drivers, food preparation workers, and child care providers.
***Workforce Training
The U.S. has chronically underinvested in workforce development, and millions of jobs have been going unfilled in growing sectors such as construction and health care. Through high-quality career and technical education pathways and Registered Apprenticeships, President Biden’s Build Back Better Agenda will invest in training programs that will prepare millions of American workers for high-quality jobs in growing sectors.
***Clean Energy Jobs
When President Biden thinks about climate change, he thinks jobs. To position the U.S. to tackle the climate crisis and advance environmental justice, the President’s plan would create good-paying, union jobs, establish an energy efficiency and clean energy standard, expand and extend clean energy and electric vehicle tax credits, and enlist a new Civilian Climate Corps.
***Investments in Teachers and Schools
Even before the pandemic, our schools faced an estimated teacher shortage of 100,000, undermining the education of our children and students of color in particular. President Biden’s Build Back Better Agenda will address teacher shortages and improve teacher preparation, including through teacher residencies and Grow Your Own programs that produce better outcomes and develop more teachers of color. It would expand free school meals to an additional 9.3 million children during the school year and help families purchase food during the summer. And the President’s plan also invests in upgrading school infrastructure, so that we have cutting-edge, energy-efficient, resilient school buildings with technology and labs that will prepare students for the jobs of the future.

But now...is there a BLACK AGENDA in all of that?

It's nice, I was reading through it...but what does it do for us specifically?

Nothing.  That's why Democrats have historically taken advantage of the black vote.  They talk a good game but it's mostly smoke and mirrors. 

 

Black folks need to codify an agenda in all areas of human actiivity and have the ability to provide oversight to insure that it happens. 

 

There's a reason that other folks have multiple organizations and special interest groups to secure their needs and wants

 

Black folks need more ore than NAACP, CBC, BIG, UNCF, BLM, etc.  Most of those are fronts anyway.  They are the organizational equivalent of a Sit and Spin:

The words could be updated to articulate the black agenda once it's codified. 😁😎

I've repeatedly said for over 10 years now that Black folks need a SOLID AGENDA.

But what I've been saying for about 3 years specifically is that INTELLIGENT and DECENT Black folks need to get together and formulate this agenda because you'll never unite ALL Black folks on everything.
 

Unfortunately, some of our people are just plain too STUPID to know what's in their best interests.  They'll sell-out for a pack of Black-N-Milds and 12 piece party pack of Popeyes chicken.


You can't discuss anything of importance with them.
They won't understand if and many of those who manage to....will just screw your plans.

"Reparations????
NIgga this IS the Reparations!
Da' fuck you thank???"



INTELLIGENT and DECENT Black folks need to organized and form an agenda.
 

I've discovered that INTELLIGENT Black people...meaning Black people with an IQ of atleast over 95..actually tend to think quite similar.
We notice the same things in society and actually notice the same problems.  
When intelligent Black men get together...and leave the dope and alcohol alone while we meet...we usually come up with VIABLE solutions to our problems pretty quickly.
 

It's usually White folks who come into the meeting interfering with the discussion or Black FOOLS who waste time talking loud and making threats that hinder progress.

And don't let a bunch of Black fools AND some White folks be at the same meeting...they'll REALLY act up!!!
Start showing out and competing with eachother over who the White folks agree with the most.

Shhhhhh...be quiet yall, I got sum' to say.
Now hold on yall...
I thank...I thank dat we should all show a dep of gratitude to Massa Trump fa takin'
time out his busy schedule to come sit down wit' us."



Just don't let THEM butter biscuit eating fools in our meetings and we'll be alright.
Let them wait outside in the drive way next to the cars until we're finished talking businesses.
Then they can drive us back home...or to the closest Popeye's chicken to celebrate our success...lol
