(34,648 posts)Most of us are very well informed. I just told you what the problem is. If you refuse to believe me then good luck to you sir/ma'am. We have already looked at his record many many times so please don't tell me to look. Please. We need to discuss race and racism in this nation. The candidate who sucessfully does that will win the black vote. Pointing to his record over and over is repetitive. We know. We know. We want to know what he is going to do to get our votes now.
We are dying and locked up. He talks jobs and free college. That is not a solution. We talk crime and our boys being targeted to be locked up in jail and funnelled from school to prison and he talks jobs fo youth. To us that says he think we would not be in jail if we had job like we all just hang on the corner acting out. We want the prison and criminal justice system not just reformed, but dismantled and the drug war over. America WILL NOT let a black man do that. So do NOT start bashing obama to black folks to make your point. America hates black and we know they barely let that man take a shit without protesting.
