I do not use this metaphor as a point of shame, but I am tired of the double-standard which permits black politicians to say whatever they want to, but then demagogues a politician, a pollster, and pundit, or any other person from speaking the truth on matters.
Even reporters have chided Joe Biden for "articulate" when he described President Barack Obama.
Indeed, President Barack Obama is articulate, enough that Democrat turned Republican Artur Davis applauded the president's resounding rhetoric! He admitted that he was fooled, but no longer. David, a Southern Democrat, has witnessed the Democratic party leave him, just as it left Ronald Reagan.
I would say that black politicians have done much in the past to help all voters. I loved J.C. Watts stand up for voters in Oklahoma, and he was an outspoken supporter of Newt Gingrich, which took a lot of guts, considering the track record which the formed House Speaker had in Congress and in his private life.
I applaud Allen West of Florida, who commands a great deal of respect and refused to be defined solely by his color. He is a proud veteran, and we need more legislators like him, who understand that limited government is good government, and nothing more is needed. Then there is Mia Love, who is running as the first African-American woman looking to unseat an incumbent Democrat in Mormon-conservative Utah. I am very excited for her!
The Democratic Party used to be "The White Man's Party".
Sadly, in many ways it still remains "The White Man's Party" -- how many people of non-European descent spoke at the DNC last month? The highlighted diversity in the RNC rivals the Democratic party, yet the Mainstream Media refuses to acknowledge this trend. How many black voters has Barack Obama reached out to in the past few months? I
The "colored glasses" which have pasted the Republicans as "The Rich, Old, White Guys' Party" has fallen apart, yet the elites in universities and newspaper editorial boards refused to recognize the fact.
My intent is nothing more than to arrest attention to the terrible trends from the Democratic Party toward "minority voters", many of whom have been fed a bill of good which tells them that the government cares for them and wants only the best.
Just one perusal through Losing Ground, and long-time voters for the DNC will flee, and the party will lose the ground which it never should have had in the first place!
Maxine Waters has used race against her race -- she helps put taxpayers at the back of the bus. Black, white, Hispanic, there is no reason why more people should be paying taxes which fund nothing but defunct policies, and why are we treating people who are down on their lack as if they are completely incapable of getting ahead in life?
Government has not helped one person get out of dependency to revel in the independence which men and women are endowed by right to receive.
Maxine Waters does not seem to care. Does she not recognize the poverty and the criminality in her own 35th and now 43rd District? Does she have no respect whatsoever for the youth who do not see their own parents grow up into a thriving adulthood?! Photo-ops and demonizing "The Tea Party" will not help voters who are looking for work, not just a handout.
Come to think of it, I fear that Maxine Waters is putting all her voters in the back of the bus!
