Rambling's Journal - Ketchup Boy continues to pander to black audiences John Kerry continued his stretch of pandering to black church congregations, while kissing the feet of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson today in Miami. The Democratic presidential nominee attended two church services Sunday, instead of his usual one, worshipping first with Haitian Catholics and then with Baptists, where the Rev. Jesse Jackson (news - web sites) and Al Sharpton (news - web sites) tied his election to the civil rights struggle. "We have an unfinished march in this nation," Kerry said at Friendship Missionary Baptist Church, as many congregants waved fans handed out by the campaign with his slogan, "Hope is on the way." "Never again will a million African Americans be denied the right to exercise their vote in the United States of America," Kerry promised, referring to the disputed Florida recount in the 2000 presidential race. As he often does before black audiences, Kerry said he has a legal team that will aggressively respond to any allegations of disenfranchisement. Kerry continued to preach to the false mantra of black disenfranchisement in Florida, a spectre which was initially raised in the midst of the 2000 election fiasco. Jackson, Sharpton and US Rep Carrie Meek (D-FL) spoke at the church services in support of Kerry while deriding President Bush and those who support him. Jackson told worshippers their political concerns are issues that touch their everyday lives, not gay marriage. "I see disturbing signs today that some of our churches have been confused by wolves in sheep's clothing," Jackson said. "How did someone else put their agenda in the front of the line?" "November 2, the power is in your hands, hands that once picked cotton," Jackson said. While I have ancestors did pick cotton, they did so in order for me to think for myself; to move forward and make my own decisions -- not have Jesse Jackson and his cronies (up to and including John Kerry) make my decisions for me. mhking.mu.nu

<<<This Week: "The Choice 2004" (120 min.)>>> Thats pretty arrogant to have less than a handful of people try to influence the vote of 100's of millions on the eve of the elections. As tho they are the only ones who have looked at the true history of the candidates. Undecided voters can re-visit the presentation on Nov 1 st and then safely vote for whichever candidate has been painted as having the prettiest past in "The Choice". Luckily this election will be decided by people who are more concerned with the future action of the candidates. Will we continue to take the fight to the enemy on their own territory, or will we retreat and let the terrorists come to us. ? Let them gain WMD's to contaminate or nuke Dallas or Chicago, and then appeal to the UN to form a global coalition. Perhaps bring French troops into Washington in 6 weeks, or 6 months, or 6 years too late to help defend the Capital buildings or provide us missiles and loans to build up our city defences. Sig Bill O'Reilly said this would be the deciding debate, a must win for Bush. He will have to decide for himself whether it was or not. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ?? Too tough to call.
