I don’t know his politics, I don’t know which issues he’s campaigning for, and I don’t know about his background but I do know Democrats. Most importantly, I know racism when I see it. That’s why I’m supporting the candidacy of Alvin Greene in South Carolina. I am not endorsing him but I do endorse his right to run. Liberals hate that I constantly accuse them of being the racists that they are. Too bad. The colossal push to force a black man out of a race he won fairly provides more proof why the Democratic Party is the most racist institution in America today.
The Alvin Greene story reads like a Hollywood script. Here you have a veteran without any political pedigree, get rejected by the party machine then miraculously gets accepted by the people. He achieves the improbable goal of winning his party’s nomination in a statewide race with few resources. Unfortunately for Greene, he has reached far beyond the boundaries reserved for black politicians. He will now suffer the wrath of the Democratic machine because of his ambition and desire to serve his state. While blacks are the most loyal Democrat voters, the party has made it clear that as long as a black person runs for a seat in an all-black district, he won’t have any problem with his party. For the record, Obama doesn’t count. When I say “black,” I am referring to Americans like me that trace their roots to enslaved Africans.
This entire story exposes the racism that exists from the surface to the core of the Democratic Party. They have the audacity to ask this man questions that I have never heard asked to any other candidate. Insulting questions like, do you have transportation? Who paid for your filing fee? Why don’t you have a job? I wonder if someone asked Barbara Boxer if she had a car when she first campaigned for the Senate? Probably not. This man is a honorably discharged veteran of our military and deserves our respect. Racist liberals have made an issue about him paying filing fee. What these elitists are saying is that they don’t believe a black man can save $10,000 and spend it on something other than rims and jewelry. Of course the Democrats never hesitate to insult the public’s intelligence by insinuating that he is a Republican plant. If that were the case, surely the GOP would have got a candidate that was remotely organized, had some name ID, and able pretend to be viable. It’s asinine to believe the opposition would go through the trouble of running a clandestine campaign for some random guy.
This whole situation is a great illustration of the Democratic Party political slave plantation. Here we have a black man that has achieved the unthinkable, facing his fiercest opposition from his “so-called” teammates. Playing the role of Sambo, the enslaved slave minion is Rep. Jim Clyburn. It’s always the house Negroes that lead the charge to destroy another black man when they feel their position may be in jeopardy. “I know a Democratic pattern, I know a Republican pattern, and I saw in the Democratic primary elephant dung all over the place,” Mr. Clyburn said. This statement is as ignorant as it is baseless. Situations like this is why so-called civil rights leaders get no respect from me. They only talk racial solidarity when it’s beneficial to them. Playing the role of evil slave owner Simon Legree (this role is interchangeable among Democratic leadership) is former Democratic Congressman Butler C. Derrick Jr. who stated “I do recall when the Democratic nomination to the United State Senate was one of great pride in South Carolina, apparently, that’s not the case anymore.” Surely he means when the Democratic candidate was white like him. He continued “This guy has about as much chance of being elected to the United States Senate as I have to fly around the moon without a spacecraft.”
I can’t vote for Mr. Greene, but I do support his right to run. I am glad to see a citizen of the United States defy the political machine and make the case to the people why he should represent them in Congress. America should know that this is yet another example of the real Democratic Party. I pray that God gives Mr. Greene the strength to withstand the pressure and not to let Democratic Party take away what he has earned. I spent two years writing and researching the Democratic Party in my book Political Emancipation: Observations of A Black Man Who Rejected Liberal Indoctrination and filled it with stories like this. I want America to realize that while liberals and the Democratic Party baselessly accuse conservatives of racism, they continue to practice and perfect it daily.
