They just seem smarter and more honest.

Is a white man has already been selected.

... I vote for the PoC or if they're two PoC, I vote for the younger.

I'm an old white male, and I want to live long enough to vote AOC or Jasmine Crocker for President.

I wanted to vote for Barbara Jordon or Shirley Chisholm. I did write in Barbara Jordon in the primary of '76. Jimmy Carter was a good consolation prize.




Nice reference to Nina Simone. An artist who demonstrably traded off popularity to tell the truth.

The Powers that be have already selected the Candidate. She always tells us the truth.

My parents played Nina Simone records when I was growing up.

... down but it needs to another candidate.

Your folks were lefties? Mine weren't!

My parents married in 1969 - Black/white couple.

When we were misbehaving in the Reagan Era my dad used to threaten that he was going to drop us off at the White House. Seriously.

Or - "Why are you acting like a Republican? You're being stupid".

And make her tip toe around them.

When it suits them, when we go yessuh boss . When we move off the plantation and speak our truth, it becomes not all —- people, she’s a dumbass, reverse discrimination also we need to stop talking about identity politics even though it’s the republicans who wallow in them. We have been walking a tightrope for 300 years, I don’t see that changing.

but also all the cultural and social madness. Unfortunately, we're outnumbered by people steep in these forms of politics for their own reasons, and for some, those go deep. It used to be a national tragedy would have us setting aside petty politics and pull together for a common good. Today, that common good has been ripped from us and relabeled "woke" by the magas. We could, realistically, be victim to another 911 type attack and, instead of everyone pulling together, people would go bonkers blaming and "reporting" on their neighbors. Until this mindset has an ethical update, I don't see a hell of a lot of hope for us.

And until Democrats Learn The Art of The Tribe -

We will be at each other.

Our "tent" is large enough to hold a hell of a lot of members within our tribe, based on a rather low bar, IMO.

They will ride the United States into the ground. We cannot have our house divided and the country will not continue to stand.

Governor Newsom? Governor Pritzker? Governor Shapiro?

She's a good loyal Democratic Party member. And she's probably on calls asking for donations for her campaign.

Urban Radio was the home of the late great Black Eagle: Joe Madison. It is a Black American Biosphere. It is an informed group of listeners and callers.

I was listening to that in real time. It doesn't matter the show - its the same caller saying the same thing. we know it has to be a white guy. She's reassuring Black folks that we are being heard.

When Black women say (the core party ride or die base) it must be a white guy: Listen to us.

We are telling a truth to America that Liberals and Progressives who are NOT Black Can learn what is needed for the safety and security of our children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc etc.

We need reassurance. She met us where we are at.

What's the problem with that? Why does David Hogg get to say meet young white men where they are at in language they can "hear" - but she doesn't get to do the same thing for Black women?

The days of tone policing us and discussions about Respectability are OVER. Do not tone police any Black woman politician in America ever again. We saw what white folks permitted and allowed in November. All she did was hold up a mirror to America.
