September is gone and Black Pastors are STILL telling their congregations NOT to vote

Since February 3, 1870, when a Republican Congress ratified the 15th Amendment to insure African Americans had the right to vote, Black pastors have always encouraged their congregations to vote.

Until 1908 they had advised voting for Republicans since they considered the GOP their natural home.

In 1912 Woodrow Wilson and W,E.B. Dubois tricked African Americans into believing that Blacks were not making progress and it was the Republican’s fault. For 100 hundred year

s to a greater and greater degree Blacks have voted Democrat. This year, in the oddest of twists, Barack Obama a Black man is on his way to ending the 100 year Democrat grip on African Americans.

Up until mid-May when Obama had his latest “evolution” to a favorable position on Gay “marriage” the only problem with the Black vote was some small concern about turnout. Obama’s new position changed that.

Stunned and angry, many Blacks wanted Obama to reverse his position or at least meet with their clergy for a photo-op and a flimsy but plausible explanation. Obama did neither and this has infuriated a portion of the Black community and their clergy.

Because of Obama’s gaffe Mitt Romney and the Republicans are now in the best possible position regarding the Black vote. While some pastors are actually advising African Americans to cross over and vote for Romney others are telling their followers to stay home and not vote.

The importance of this development cannot be overstated: For the first time since 1870 Black ministers are advising their people NOT to vote.

Since Obama vaulted to victory on the strength of a 95% Black vote from a 65% turnout, ANY drop in either number will be fatal for Obama’s chances in many states.

Moreover, while Obama won a huge Electoral College victory…..

The extent of the damage Obama has brought on himself is being denied by the media, but I've been out with my sandwich boards showing people a conservative point of view. Black Females are my best readers. I go to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal and to the three local colleges and it is always the same. Blacks especially females are reading my messages and asking questions. I'm saying about three in ten read the message and the vast majority have a positive "I agree" response. This morning a Black man read my messages, smiled and walked on. When I called to him and said, "Hey you know statistically you don't exist" he turned and said "I know" with a big grin.

Well, I certainly hope this is true....I’d hate for all the faithful to go to hell because they voted for the devil’s advocate Obama....an earthly ObamaPhone, or an EBT card is not worth an eternity in hell.

If this actually occurs it will give me renewed faith in humanity and the black community in general. Unfortunately I'm afraid the number of blacks like “Obama Phone” lady, who will swarm to the polls on election day like mindless zombies in a bad horror flick to pull the lever for Obama will VASTLY outnumber the ones that stay home for moral reasons.
