Who would you Vote for in '08 Election?

[Daughter of Kali]

Cynthia McKinney is my candidate of choice. I cannot bring myself to vote for Obama. He is an Uncle Tom in my eyes.

[s8loud]

Yup, McKinney is the real deal. I wish the media would pay more attention to her.

I am being serious when I ask, what has bill clinton done for black people?

Amin, Sister. Amin. He put a few Uncle Toms and Aunt Jemimas in government jobs. He attacked Sudan for no good reasons at all. Other than that, I see nothing he did for us. I can only see what he did to us.

And, that is my main point. I know Obama is not developing a strong platform for this community. But, absolutely nobody else is doing it neither. If we want Obama to do something for us, we have to start insisting that the others do so as well.

For instance, they say Obama is an Israeli flunky. Well actually, all he did was adopt the exact same policy platform that was already in place. My arguement all along was that this year we can insist that our anti-zionism concerns be respected. But, we were forced to blindly support Obama because the Uncle Toms and Aunt Jemimas and the 8 percenters kept attacking Obama and kissing up to the Clintons. We knew that Obama was the best candidate for Palestinians even though he could not say so. In fact, I strongly suspect that the main reason Clinton took so long to stand down was to pressure Obama into the usual Dummy-cratic party support of Israel. Whetever, it is an indispuatbale fact, that she did not stand down until Obama spoke before that zionist lobbying group. When he said that he would do what she and Billl had been doing for years, she accepted defeat. Some defeat, if you ask me.

Palestine is on the front doorsteps of Africa. We are Africans. Millions upon millions of Paletinians refugees live among us here in America. So, we cannot allow Israel to continue as they have done vis a vis the Palestinians. To do so would be suicidal for us. But, realistically, we cannot attack Obama on this issue. What we must do is pressure the whole establishment to reduce support of Israeli criminality. Also, if Israel does not make peace, we must insist that the tax-payer's money that Israel receives every day be reduced. The amount of money is very misleading. Every time Israel commits another crime, American tax-payers get stuck with another bill to correct Israel's crimes. There is an action and reaction. There is a ripple effect in world politics. And, American tax-payers get stuck at every point. We get stuck when the crime is commited, the action. We get stuck when people respond to the crime, the reaction.; And we get stuck from the ripple effect.

For instance, if Isreal murders school children in Gaza, it angers the Arabs and Muslims all over the world. These crimes were commited with tax-payer money. When al-HAMAS take up sticks and stones and defend their homes, the tax-payer has to finance Isreal's defense. If Irag send in missiles to attack Israel, the costs increase.

The bottom line is we must all insist that all policy makers, not just Obama, put an end to this insanity.

I suspect the Clintons are also handy when it comes to stealing elections. Remember the "iregularities" in the New Hamphire primarry?

The Clintons didn't steal that election, get real.

And since you don't know what Bill Clinton ever did for blacks here's one:

He created more jobs for blacks (everyone for that matter) than any other president. Period.

Let's see how many jobs Obama creates....

Clinton put more police on the streets to lock up Africans. He increased the amount of crimes that you can get the death penalty for to kill more Africans. Did a few more things for African people too as I recall. What a nice white man?!?!?!

Don't forget that our wonderfull "black" president took billions of dollars out of the Black communities when he made it almost impossible for Black contractors to get city contracts for major constuction projects in the cities. These Black people owned their own busineses and He damned near put them out of business but I am supposed to be thankfull for a "job": Whoa..
