Democrats want everyone to think that blacks are monolithic.
Take, for example, that little statistic of the voting habits of black
Americans. It ranges anywhere from 90% to 96% of the vote going to the
Democratic candidate, depending upon the race, the region of the country and
the contest. One small detail is missing though . . . less than 30% of
blacks even vote. So if you take 90% of 29%, you will get about 26% or about
one quarter of the black population that actually votes for the Democratic
candidate.
What about that other 74%? Why don’t they vote?
We discovered while filming our documentary, Emancipation
Revelation Revolution, that the reason most blacks feel disenfranchised from
the voting machinery is that they don’t feel comfortable with the Democratic
platform and have been intimidated into believing that the Republican Party
is the spawn of Satan. They reject, as a matter of conscience, most of the
social positions the Democrats espouse. They have seen the figures and
realize that 40% of all abortions are performed on black women and can see
the finger of genocide pointing in their direction. At the same time, there
is an erroneous belief that the Republican Party has been wrong on civil
rights and lacks compassion.*
They have seen the devastation of the black family at the hand of the party
that replaced personal responsibility with government handouts laced with
immoral, impossible conditions. Conditions like forbidding the father of a
woman’s child to live in the family if they are to receive welfare, or the
restriction on returning to school if they are in the government system.
They have seen the black family smeared in the Petri dish of social
experimentation for several generations and realize the same monolithic
mentality exists that identifies blacks as victims of society, dependent
upon “the man” for their very existence. Sound familiar?
What is happening to those who are breaking out of this mindset, in the year
of the “black candidate,” declaring that the color of Barack’s skin color is
irrelevant because the content of his character is a bigger issue? The
mainstream media doesn't want to focus on that, because if they did, they
would be admitting that blacks are not monolithic, do not en masse support
one party over another, and don’t all attend churches as divisive as Rev.
Wrights.
The debate should be about whether someone who lacks judgment and attends a
divisive church that pits one group of people against another is qualified
to lead an entire nation, not whether Obama should have thrown Rev. Wright
under the bus for political expediency.
What we are witnessing though, in this entire debate, is another
example of the smugness of the liberal press and the ignorance of those who
oppose the liberal media, because they always let them set the agenda in any
debate. The assumption has been for years, that there really is only one
black America with only two main spokesmen . . . Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton. When Barack Obama broke through that glass ceiling erected by
those who have a vested interest in maintaining the misperception that
blacks can only achieve with government handouts and welfare policies, the
powers-that-be had to restack the deck in order to maintain their position
of power and influence over self-proclaimed leaders who have forfeited real
authority for personal gratification and aggrandizement.
Obama was allowed to slip through the velvet ropes of low
expectations because Hillary Clinton had already torn the doors off the
presidential clubhouse and demanded her time at the helm. With the common
denominator being lowered to the point that a woman with zero administrative
experience, other than being married to a man that had some, could declare
that she was suitable to serve as president, it now was easier for everyone
to cross that threshold. Barack was whispered to be the only tool powerful
enough to derail the queen from ascending to the thrown and was seen as a
uniter of the party with a flawless resume that offended no one . . . except
the liberal power base that expected all newcomers to make their bones
before making such brash declarations.
But now that his campaign is unraveling with Rev. Wright
permanently tattooed on his forehead, there has to be an easy explanation
that will dismiss the reality of his extreme rhetoric, and the naiveté of
Barack to continue learning at his knee all these years. The liberal . . .
white media has to now spin the discussion away from extremism, and back
toward the nuance of wisdom in order to keep their age old stereotype alive,
that all blacks are the same, are a monolithic group of like-minded people
who are so similar that almost 95% vote the same way.
The discussion that is not being aired is the divisions within
not only the black communities on key issues, but within the churches as
well. There are thousands of black churches across the nation who are
appalled by the rantings of Rev. Wright and are very upset that the
mainstream media has shrugged and suggested that this is the typical black
church, and they have earned the right to hold such racist views because of
past injustices. It is an easy way to keep the plantation of bitterness and
victimization open for business. It is not in the best interest of liberals
to set the captives free from anger and racist ideology, because once they
are free, they speak and think for themselves, they realize the government
has not made their lives easier, but placed impossible restrictions on their
livelihood, their lifestyles, their hopes and dreams for a brighter
tomorrow. The government welfare systems have robbed people of their dignity
while refusing to give helpful alternatives to personal growth. And those
who keep that machine running, keep it fed and churning out new welfare
recipients are liberals who must have that vote to stay alive. They would
literally shrivel up like a salt-pelted slug if that plantation ceased to
exist.
So it is imperative that they convince white Americans that all blacks are
helpless, angry, disenfranchised, bitter, victims of racism and they will
never be able to accomplish anything without assistance. They even think
they are helping Barack by suggesting that all black churches are like Rev.
Wrights and this is what happens in black churches every Sunday, and it is
fine that Barack has attended that church for 20 years. Who are we to say
how and where someone should worship? Who are we, as oppressive, racist
whites to condemn Rev. Wright and his church?
