An open letter to family and friends: It's not you, it's me!

Over the years, my family & friends have known that I was a registered Republican and I was tolerated for this affiliation. But now, since President Obama’s first campaign and his subsequent re-election, some of my friends have ‘un-friended,’ me. My family still tolerates me, but, there is now some distance in some formerly close relationships.

 

I wanted to take this time to explain a few things, and let the chips fall where they may. You know me well, but, you don’t know…

Erin Giddens: President Obama’s Re-election Means Nothing for Black Community

                     

 

                                               

 

We gave President Obama over 90 percent of our vote.The “black pride” factor should take a back seat to our issues. We should now look at how Obama is not addressing issues/concerns of the Black community.

The Conservative Seven

According to the liberal media and the Democratic Party, the GOP is not a big tent party because of the election of Barack Obama and the Democrats winning both the White House and Congress in 2008. Well the fact of the matter is that they are wrong. The Republican Party has always been a big tent party despite the noise coming from the Left that the GOP is an exclusive party for only rich Caucasian men. There are seven factions within the Republican Party and they are listed… Continue

Why I'm a Republican

Being raised in a two-parent household in Darby, a Philadelphia suburb; I know first-hand how difficult life was in the African-American community. My father, who went only as far as the fourth grade worked in a warehouse. My mother attended a one room schoolhouse in Virginia but she was able to finish the eleventh grade, later she spent

several years working as a cook. Given their limited education and resources they provided me the opportunity to attend college, which was not an option… Continue

Class Warfare Continues

The September jobs report was no surprise: no change.  It seems the White House has finally taken responsibility for this economy and its dismal performance by calling the 9.1% unemployment rate “unacceptably high.”  In a recent…

Why I am running for State Representative

I do not seek to win; I seek to serve.

Why do I say and believe this? Because, simply put, our state is a republican form of government, where the people rule through their elected representatives. Our state representatives are elected to serve the constituents of their respective districts. These seats are not seats of power, where one aspires to exert influence or control; rather, they are to be seats of service, the ultimate display of public stewardship.

The French…

Now is the time

 I do not consider myself to be particularly prophetic, though I know some who read this will say 'you are out of your mind I can't be around you.'  I know that some will distance themselves from what I am saying because they will feel I am not a good Negro.  Some will say I 'don't know how they do business in this State or County.' Some will say I 'don't help the cause by saying such things.'  Others will stay away because they don't like confrontation. Others…

They Wouldn't Let Me

For decades, the President of the United States has arguably been the most powerful person in the whole world. So, what does it mean for the prospect of our children’s future when the President of the United States stands boldly and says, “They wouldn’t let me.”



I am confused as to how a Presidency that began on the premise of “Yes We Can,” can still motivate by saying, “They wouldn’t let me.”



I question how anyone can continue to depict the Democrats as the real…

Dr. Condoleezza Rice's R.N.C. Address - Commentary - NOT An Excursion Into Criticism

    What Adjectives or Superlatives would serve adequate to describe or place into proper perspective the Incisively Brilliant and Eloquent Speech of  the Former United States Secretary of State  Dr. Condoleezza Rice to the Republican National Convention ?

Dr. Rice's delivery was in a word Flawless ( Without the Aid of , OR Assistance of, a TelePrompTer ) Poignant and Immensely Substantive. Her Cascading Oratory rendered ALL in attendance Breathless and in Clamor.…

The Republican Party isn’t racist

The Republican Party Needs A Cadillac

                      

                                                                  By Raynard Jackson

Recently, I had lunch with a very powerful Republican elected official who is a good friend of mine. We have extremely candid conversations, especially about race (he is white). Out of nowhere he asked me what was the reason Blacks have a historical affinity for Cadillac…

Black Genocide - Black Pro-lifers fight back.

African Americans have been targeted by Planned Parenthood and the abortion cartel. The result is the loss of 15-16 million black babies to abortion since Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in 1973.

THE POLITICS OF BLACKNESS©: JENNIFER CARROLL – A CASE STUDY IN “BREAKING BARRIERS”

On September 2, 2010, Jennifer Carroll was selected to be the running mate for gubernatorial candidate, Rick Scott – where he referred to her “breaking barriers”.

Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll has a wonderful ring to it. But it would be just another first for this beautiful, intelligent, articulate woman. She is black, conservative, Christian and Republican.

In April, 2003, she was the first Black Republican ever elected to the Florida House of Representatives; then she was appointed… Continue
