THE PICK-A-BIGOT GAME
It's hard to believe that in 2016 Black people are still engaged in hot debate over which bigot we should support. Because the fact is, regardless to whether either Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump, wins this election, Black people are going to be up Shit Creek..
Even as we were running around calling him our “First Black President” Bill Clinton was paying states EXTRA to give the victims of mass incarceration, due to the crack cocaine that HE was hugely responsible for flooding into the Black community, longer sentences. So the fact is, we can only speculate about what Trump might do, but we've already SEEN the atrocities that the Clintons are capable of.
.
While admittedly, Trump looms as an ominous figure over this election, the Black community is still suffering from the atrocities that the Clintons have ALREADY committed against us the last time they were in the White House. So even a blind man should be able to see that since we’ve already experienced the Clintons' deceit and malevolent disregard for the Black community up-close and personal, we don’t really know WHAT they might do once in office for a second time.
.
The Clintons are renown for three things - political manipulation, lying, and circumventing the law. They think of average Americans as the “little people,” and that the laws designed for the rest of us to follow don’t apply to them. Yes, the Republicans have had them under constant investigation and they keep slipping through the cracks, but that doesn’t mean that the allegations aren’t true. If you were robbed, even though the robber escapes conviction, he’s a criminal nevertheless, because a criminal is one who commits crimes, whether he’s been convicted or not. We’ve seen that scenario at work in the recent FBI investigation of Hillary Clinton. If you or I worked for the State Department and put Top Secret information on our home computer we’d be thrown UNDER the jail, but the Clintons have connections, and having connections powerful enough to place a person above the law is a threat to our democracy.
.
In that regard, even as I write, an indictment against arms dealer, Marc Turi, is being dropped in order to protect Hillary Clinton. According to a report by Politico, “A Turi associate asserted that the government dropped the case because the proceedings could have embarrassed Clinton and President Barack Obama by calling attention to the reported role of their administration in supplying weapons that fell into the hands of Islamic extremist militants [ISIS].” So again, we don’t know what the Clintons might do if returned to the White House. Clinton supporters try to justify their support by claiming, they'll save us from Trump. Okay, but who's going to save us from them?
.
So it's really amazing to see so many Black people (including the Congressional Black Caucus) jumping up and down and rallying behind people who's already cut our throats. This situation clearly demonstrates that the number of Black people who have a tendency to be self-serving, distracted, and/or uninformed is a serious threat to our culture. It's enough to make one more than just a little concerned over the ultimate fate of the Black community as a whole. Because if we don’t wake up - and in a hurry! - we’re lost. We’re already being dismissed as a people; that’s why society is completely ignoring our children being poisoned with lead contaminated water, the inner city being poisoned with crack cocaine just so the powers that be could raise a little extra cash, and Black people are being shot down in the street with complete impunity. We’re allowing ourselves to become totally meaningless.
.
As I’ve pointed out several times in previous articles, when Bill Clinton was the governor of Arkansas, he colluded with the Reagan administration to flood the Black community with crack cocaine in order to fund Reagan’s illegal war in Nicaragua. Then when he became president he signed the most draconian crime bill in the history of the United States and created the prison industrial complex that led to the mass incarceration of the victims of HIS crime - Black people. There after, that very same prison industrial complex became one of Hillary Clinton’s biggest political contributors.

Yet, in spite of the horrendous atrocities that Bill Clinton committed against the Black community, when he wanted to get Hillary and himself back into the White House, he had the audacity to go to the NAACP and try to apologize. But what’s even more amazing is that Black people were foolish enough to accept it!!! The Black Congressional Caucus couldn’t wait to endorse Hillary Clinton, and Black people were falling all over one another as they flocked to the polls to help her win the primaries. The absolute ignorance of the Black community in this matter is beyond sad, it's disgusting. Due to our own cluelessness - our failure to remain informed, and our tendency to vote name-recognition and/or genitals over intellect - we’ve now placed ourselves in a position of having to choose between cyanide or strychnine. So no, I'm not voting for either one of those demagogues. I’m simply not going to allow them to force me to play the pick-a-bigot game. If I did I would never be able to live with myself.
.
As I mentioned earlier, if we keep allowing them to play us by having to choose a "preferred bigot," that gives them carte blanche to cut our throats whenever, and however deep they choose, and then just trot out one of their Bogeyman cronies - who they might have just had lunch with 10 minutes earlier - to scare us into re-electing them every election (“Yeah, I know I haven’t always treated well, but you don’t want him, do ya!!!?”). They've been playing Black people like that every since we've had the right to vote, and I'm shocked that today’s modern and so-called “sophisticated” Black people are naïve enough to go for that tired-ass bullshit game.
.
Black people need to take a page out of the Jewish handbook - once you show them you're their enemy, you're their enemy FOREVER, and under ANY and ALL circumstances. That's the only way to protect yourself in this highly manipulative political environment. All Jesse Jackson had to do was say “Hymietown” and the Jews ran him out of politics. In contrast, Bill Clinton is hugely responsible for more Black people being under the control of the prison industrial complex than there were slaves in America in 1850, so the Clintons have done a hundred times more harm to the Black community than the Klan. If the Clintons had committed a fraction of the atrocities against the Jews as they have to Black people, Hillary wouldn't have even been able to run for office, and the Jewish attitude is absolutely right in that regard. They learned that lesson from hard and bitter experience, but Black people seem to be kinda slow in seeing the light.
.
So while I'm not one who's very big on organized religion, in this case, I think I'll place my faith in God instead of the Democratic Party. Since my right to choose was stolen from me by the Clintons, Debbie Wasserman Shultz, and the DNC, I'm certainly not gonna reward them for that undemocratic treachery with my vote. I'm just gonna follow the advice of the old folks and "put it in the hand's of the Lord." So I'm gonna to vote for Jill Stein and the Green Party and then let God sort out the consequences. After all of the other atrocities the Clintons have committed against Black people, I am definitely not gonna allow them to rob me of my vote, come Hell or high water; it would set a horrible precedent, and far too many people have fought and died to give it to me.
