Most black politicians, ministers, civil rights advocates
and professionals support Hillary Clinton's quest for the presidency.
* BECAUSE THEY'RE FRIGGIN' MENTALLY AND MORALLY
DEFICIENT!
(*SNORT*)
* SORRY... COULDN'T HELP MYSELF...
(*BASHFUL GRIN*)
Whoever becomes the next president, whether it's a
Democrat or Republican, will mean little or nothing in terms of solutions to
major problems that confront many black people.
We've already seen that even a black president means
little or nothing. Politics and political power cannot significantly improve
the lives of most black people and may even be impediments.
Blacks hold high offices and dominate the political
arenas in Philadelphia, Detroit, Baltimore and other cities. Yet these are the
very cities with the nation's poorest educational outcomes, highest crime
rates, high illegitimacy rates and other forms of social pathology.
* LET'S REPEAT THAT ONE, FOLKS:
Blacks hold high offices and dominate the political

* YEP...
(*SIGH*)
Let's look at this pattern, focusing just on
Philadelphia, Detroit and Baltimore, cities with large black populations and
black-held political power for nearly a half-century.
In Philadelphia, only 19% of eighth-graders score
proficient in math and 16% in reading.
* IT'S THE WHITE MAN'S FAULT!
(*SNORT*)
In Detroit, there is only a 4% proficiency level in math
and 7% in reading.
* KILL THE WHITE MAN! KILL HIM! HIM AND HIS DAMNED (NO...
MAKE THAT "GOD-DAMNED!") WHITE TEMPTRESS! (AND ALL THOSE DAMNED WHITE
TRANS-WHATEVER TYPES!)
In Baltimore, it's a 12% proficiency in math and 13% in
reading.
* SERIOUSLY, FOLKS... WHAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE DONE TO
BLACKS... WHAT BLACKS HAVE DONE TO BLACKS...
(*DEEP SIGH*)
These results are even more depressing when one tallies
the percentages of students scoring "below basic" on the National
Assessment of Education Progress test, often referred to as "the nation's
report card." Below basic means that a student is unable to demonstrate
even partial mastery of knowledge and skills fundamental for proficient work at
his grade level. In Philadelphia, 47% scored below basic in math and 42% in
reading. In Baltimore, it was respectively 59% and 49%. In Detroit, 73% scored
below basic in math and 56 percent in reading.
(*SILENCE*)
In terms of murders, shootings and other kinds of
criminal behavior, these three cities are at or near the top.
* YEP...
They also experience high rates of illegitimacy and
single-parent households.
* AND THAT'S T*H*E SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT DETERMINANT.
BLACK AMERICA HAS COMMITTED CULTURAL SUICIDE. (WITH HISPANIC AMERICA COMING ON
STRONG AND WHITE AMERICA NOT ALL THAT FAR BEHIND.)
(*DEEPEST SIGH YET*)
Let me be absolutely clear about what I am saying. I am
not saying that blacks having political power is the cause of these problems.
* THOUGH... THAT IS A PIECE OF THE PUZZLE...
What I am saying is that the solution to the problems
confronting black people will not be found in the political arena.
* YEP. AGAIN... CULTURAL SUICIDE HAS BEEN GOING ON APACE.
(HELPS TO KEEP 'EM ON THE "LIBERAL PLANTATION"...)
(*EXHALE*)
I am also saying that blacks working to secure the
presidency of Hillary Clinton or Sen. Bernie Sanders are wasting resources that
could be better spent trying to reverse the tragic destinies of so many black
youths.
* THEY'RE FRIGGIN' MORONS, WALT! LET'S SAY IT LIKE IT
IS... "KEEP IT REAL" AS THE SAYING GOES.
The Obama administration, as well as black and white
liberals, expresses concern with disproportionate numbers of black students
suspended or expelled. They have created a practice called "restorative
justice," where students are called on to repair the harm caused by their
bad behavior. Under this regime, cursing a teacher or assaulting a teacher is no
cause for traditional discipline.
(*SNORT*)
Instead, there's talking and pleas.
* BRING... CORPORAL... PUNISHMENT... BACK...!!! TO ALL
SCHOOLS! THE LILLY WHITE SUBURBS TOO!
But I'll bet the rent money that the black and white
liberal elite would never send their own children to schools where teachers are
routinely assaulted and cursed. They would never send their children to schools
so unsafe that students must enter through metal detectors so as to prevent the
introduction of guns, knives and other weapons.
* WE KNOW PAUL RYAN WOULDN'T!
(*GUFFAW*)
* SEE MY PREVIOUS POST ON RYAN'S KIDS' SCHOOL...
(*SMIRK*)
The disgraceful academic performance by black students is
not pre-ordained.
* HOPEFULLY NOT...
In other words, it just doesn't have to be that way.
* I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY!
The Washington, D.C., Opportunity Scholarship Program, a
school-choice voucher program, has an excellent record, with 91% of its
"at-risk" students graduating.
* AND YET...
(*DRUM ROLL*)
The Obama administration, doing the bidding of teacher's
unions, has attacked the program.
(*SPITTING ON THE FLOOR IN DISGUST*)
Here is U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, R-SC, who questioned
President Obama's Secretary of Education - John King Jr. - about the D.C.
scholarship program during confirmation hearings:
King: "I do not personally believe that vouchers are
a scalable solution to the equity and excellence challenge and prefer the route
of public school choice."
(*SMIRK*)
I would have asked Mr. King how that position differs
from a position that says: "No black children shall be saved unless and
until all black children can be saved."
I don't think black people can afford such a policy
perspective.
