Intelligent Contituency

 

Martin Luther King Jr…..excuse me Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream that blacks and whites could receive equal treatment in this country. I want u to become smarter and less naive. You must recognize the power that you have as constituents. Candidates should not receive votes based on what they look like and which party they’re affiliated with. Furthermore, those that are elected must be held accountable for politicizing issues of substance.
We are led by men and women who are self-serving. They lie to us. They manipulate us. At best, our wants and needs are tertiary on their list of priorities. Once they fulfill their personal obligations, they look-out for those that pour money into their campaigns. Voters can change that!  Stop allowing these lying self-serving ingrates to be professional public servants. The internet affords you all the information to stay abreast of what our elected leaders are doing. The NSA deleves into your personal lives. Delve into theirs! Know what their political agendas are. Find out if they’re making good on campaign promises. Just don’t be sidetracked by inconsequential matters. Who cares if he or she had an affair? Indiscretions of that sort must be dealt with amongst them, their spouse, and their family.
While I do understand that we can’t be voting for men with troglodytic behavioral patterns, and women who allow their promiscuity to unravel the thread that holds their family together; I just believe there greater concerns to focus on when weighing the pros and cons as to whether the incumbent or the challenger, should get your vote. For instance, one would think that it’s more important for them to be forthcoming about plans and policies that are going to upgrade the education system in inner cities, create job opportunities, and protect the homeland. All of these are far more important than who they are flirting with. I don’t give a damn who you rendezvous with on your business trip! I want CaNon, Tea’, and Te’Sean to have the same opportunities as Tom, Beth, and Ben.
Constituents have power! You just need to exert it. We let politicians off the hook, too often. Stop that! They lie; gotta go. They don’t deliver on promises, they gotta go. They don’t fight for us, vote ‘em out. Once it’s apparent that we mean business, they’ll get right. It’ll become obvious that counterfeit campaign promises may get you elected, but you’ll only get one term.
Politicians are so silly that with all the chaos that’s going on in the world, i.e. Isis beheading people, Israel and Hamas killing each other, and Putin running roughshod over the Ukrainian people; Rep Peter King had the nerve to be on T.V. offering criticism about the President’s new suit. Now let that sink in. They hate President Obama so much that they are talking about the man’s suit! Can you get with that ? Right now the big issue is President Obama’s “We don’t have a strategy” statement. I wish he would just say, “Shut the hell up!” For one, if you’re up against a formidable opponent, I’d like for them to believe that I’m not prepared. And if I do have a strategy, I don’t want my enemies to know what it is. That’s just stupid! What country really thinks the United States can’t handle any beef they’re in? I’d respect Republicans more is they would just admit that they hate the President, and state why they hate him. At some point ignorant racist whites should just have a spine and stop hiding behind sheets and veiled insults.
Even though a dude like Senator Mitch McConnell would never get my vote, I respect him. When President Obama was elected, truthfully stated that their goal was to make him a one term president. The message was clear! “We don’t like you and want you out.” And has anyone not notices how they refer to the President? President doesn’t always precede his name, as it does President Obama’s predecessors. With the exception of Wolf Blitzer, I constantly hear him just called Obama. Barrack Obama. Sometimes I guess when they’re feeling real patriotic they call him, Mr. Obama. The hatred is evident! That nig@#%r went too far rising up from the fields to the White House.
But, I want to make it clear that I don’t think that it’s all Republicans or just white people that hate the President or those those that look like him. We have black people like Dr. Benjamin Carson who had the nerve to say that Obama Care is the worst thing to ever happen to this country. I don’t know how wanting everyone to have health care is worse than slavery and the Jim Crow era, but apparently in his eyes it is.
Mr.Carson is a perfect example of how we need to listen to the message and not focus on what the messenger looks like. I give Sen. Rand Paul props, because he stood before an audience at Howard University, knowing they didn’t really like him, but he went. And he seems to TRY to empathize with some of the plights of blacks. Genuine or not, we can’t know, but we should listen. N.J Governor Chris Christie  is blunt and upfront! Whether you agree with his message or not we should respect a politician that’s real. He must be doing something that’s beneficial to minorities, because he’s loved in the blue state of New Jersey.
It is always good to have options. Everyone deserves a chance to be heard. Don’t be swayed by someone who the only thing they have going for them is offering you a handout. The world doesn’t know a more resilient people than black people. We don’t need entitlements. All we need is a level playing field. Your vote is your voice. But be heard after making an informed decision. Be an intelligent constituent.
