Now black intellectuals desert Hillary (tr)

Daily Mail ^

[TigerClaws]

As Hillary Clinton eyes an easy victory in the South Carolina primary, propelled by the black vote, two leading African-American intellectuals are pushing back.

Writing in the Nation yesterday, 'The New Jim Crow' author Michelle Alexander penned an essay titled, 'Why Hilary Clinton Doesn't Deserve the Black Vote,' outlining the Clintons' role in mass incarceration and high black unemployment.

The Atlantic's Ta-Nehisi Coates, who rose to national prominence after publishing the magazine's June 2014 cover story, 'The Case for Reparations,' told Democracy Now this week that he would be voting for Clinton's rival, Bernie Sanders.

You obviously flunked your mandatory black studies courses—back to the reeducation camp for you. ;-)

Cause she does not support reparations.

[PROCON]

Doesn't matter, Hillary! has the support of the Congressional Black Caucasians.

[Mr. Mojo]

Who’s more loathsome, Hillary or these so-called “black intellectuals” who call for slavery reparations and for letting violent black criminals out of prison?

Close call.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

"Black Intellectuals" a concept created solely by assertion followed by constant repetition in a leftist media.

[Resolute Conservative]

He he, I am secretly laughing.

[Caipirabob]

Cause she does not support reparations.

Give the old girl another 30 seconds or so...she's slowing down in her twilight years.

There are certain cultures and sub-cultures which value education.

There are others which, in general, do not place a value on education.

I believe God made us all equal and Jesus died for each of us.

What we do with those gifts is up to us.

Ta-Nehisi Coates is a “black intellectual”? Uh, yeah, she ranks right up there with Thomas Sowell . . . . .

[the_individual2014]

Yup and as flawed as I am I was smart enough to hang around smart folks and that is who I associate with on my spare time.

[KeyLargo]

Hitlery is "down for the struggle". But there are only Whites standing behind her during her concession speech. I guess that the Black supporters were occupied working on the Clinton plantation that day. LOL.

[Old Yeller]

Intellectuals. Good one.

[dsrtsage]

Why does the word “intellectual” always cause me to define it as its own antonym in my head?

[The people have spoken]

Ta-Nehisi Coates is a "black intellectual"? Uh, yeah, she ranks right up there with Thomas Sowell . . . . .

Ta-Nehisi is a male name. Can't you tell?

[Ancesthntr]

The Atlantic's Ta-Nehisi Coates, who rose to national prominence after publishing the magazine's June 2014 cover story, 'The Case for Reparations,'

And that case is, what, exactly? "I want another Civil War" or "Maybe Whitey will actually pay us to go back to Africa" or "I'm just a lazy bum and want Whitey to pay for everything my heart desires."

Bernie is welcome to this kind of drooling, parasitic idiot - in fact, he seems to attract nothing but that type, in a variety of colors.
