Thank-you Mr. West for your service, and for revealing some good info. Time to end the Dems plantation.
Here is the secret. $
We are literally at war and the vast majority of the nation simply doesn’t realize it.
Iffen Donald gets even 20% of the black vote—Hillary is TOAST.
The Permian Basin votes:
I met Allen West once and he is the real deal. He was impressive, real and humble; the type of guy who says what he means and means what he says. He doesn’t beat around the bush but he doesnt beat you with it either.
The guy is a great rallyer; really good at raising morale and making his troops want to fight. He’s also fast on his feet and a great speaker. Trump could use someone of his caliber and intellect in his administration.
Not a good promoter of the left during a political year when he's a notorious race-baiter and owes millions in unpaid income taxes to the US Treasury.
Anybody got a different take of why Al Sharpton dropped out of sight months ago?
If you shake hands with them you better count your fingers afterward.
Good article, but ask some stupid rhetorical questions that most ppl know the answer to.
My question is, how much liberty do black American’s in exclusively black area, how much liberty do they have to vote the way they want. How secret are their votes.
Are they told how to vote, do ‘block captains’ know who they vote.
How many black Americans could vote for Trump if they wanted to. Or does intimidation and coersion go deeper than we realize.
:: does intimidation and coercion go deeper than we realize ::
This a concept that Trump will not overcome. I have spent most of my formative years in “urban” America (Detroit). My career took me to other “urban” areas (Chicago). Make no mistake, the urban areas can carry an election, if presented appropriately.
You, FingersXd, have hit on the “funny-bone” of urban politics. I don’t think that Trump can overcome the intimidation of LIVE voters. What we should -realistically- count on is that many in the urban areas will SIMPLY just stay home and not vote.
That is not to say that the dead of Resurrection Cemetery in Argo IL won’t vote, but may they be small sampling of the poll.
I live in a county that used to be heavily DEM with a large black population all concentrated in 1 city. I was asked to participate in overseeing the actual vote counting at the courthouse.
The outlying cities were many smaller rural cities, but also a city that was the result of the large air for base their. So those areas were mostly Republican.
Once I got settled in at the courthouse, I found out that the large black city was always the last to send their ballots. And there would ALWAYS be enough votes to beat the Republican votes that came earlier....ALWAYS.
I was coming out of the bathroom and I heard a couple of Men talking...they were Dem party ppl...the 1 guy said, how much you got coming in from. xyz...the other guy said, let me know what you need.
Honest story. To this day, even with growing Rep voters and losing Dems as the city xyz had lost a lot of its population, this county has never went Republican.
Friends I have from the base say it totally pisses them off, that they bring in a good part of the county revenue, but have no say in the county politics.
The points made by West here are essential.
I don’t know that Trump can get 20% but he may well be able to get quite a few blacks who voted for Obama to stay home for Hillary.
His face was all over social media all last week after announcing he was going to leave America if Trump was elected.
Except for The Drudge Report links and Free Republic, which I scour daily for my news, you could say I have a media deficit. Not really a bad thing with the worsening of world events.
So Al Charlatan is leaving the US if Trump is elected? Probably because he knows Trump's IRS will be after his ass to pay up. All the more reason to beat hilLIARy and elect Trump.
Good riddance, if some of these whiny liberals leave and don't back pedal and stay here. But if Sharpton and other liberals like Streisand, follow through and actually leave the country, all I can say is, "Yippie yi yo kayah!"
the libs said the same thing about Bush, but none of them left. The liars are all still here....
Allen West — finally getting on the Trump Train, are we? Better late than never.
