My Brother Cornelius,
Ow u do?
"I should like to ask you and I would like you to explain it to us about you and some of the Negroes over there,"
The responses are historical, tribal and regional: Malcom X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Thurgood Marshall, Clarence Thomas, Andrew Young, Congressman John Lewis and Marion Barry.
Malcolm X was born in the Nebraska (West); Thurgood Marshall was born in Maryland (North); Dr King was born in Georgia (South); Clarence Thomas hails from Georgia (South); Andrew Young is from Louisiana (South); John Lewis was born in Alabama (South) and Marion Barry was born in Mississippi (South).
Malcolm lived in Detroit, Michigan (North), New York (North) and Massachusetts (North) which shaped his relationships, and socio-economic and political philosophies of White Americans. Consequently, he characterized Black Americans as House (N) and Field (N). House (N) were acquiescent, while the Field (N) were intransigent. He wanted freedom for Black Americans through their context of liberation rather than through the "Democratic Party". Please be aware that my Democratic Party was the party of slavery.
King wanted and procured "freedom" for Black Americans through the 'philosophy' of the Dixiecrats (Democratic Party). As they say in Creole, "Den gee we de cow, bor hole de rope". (They gave us the cow but held on to the rope).
With the exception of Marion Barry (Mississippi) all the aforementioned Southerners are malleable.
Fast forward to the 2016 Democratic Primaries, the Southern states voted overwhelmingly on an average of about 68 percent for Hillary Clinton (HC). In Michigan (North) Bernie Sanders procured about 28 percent of the African-American vote, consequently, winning that primary.
I used to have tremendous respect for Congressman Jim Clyburn, Democrat from South Carolina who was insulted by former President Bill Clinton (BC) for "supporting" then Sen. Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic Primary in South Carolina. Clyburn did not endorse Obama before that primary. But come the 2016 South Carolina Democratic Primary he advocated for HC.
As a proud and arrogant Konkay you can bet your bottom dollar that nobody will get my endorsement after they have insulted me.
Most African-Americans are "Christians" so they have the 'right' to forgive HC and her husband even though the latter took away from the poor through "welfare reform" and gave to the rich by repealing Glass-Steagall.
Congressman John Lewis said HC and BC participated in the Civil Rights struggles, while Bernie Sanders (BS) was AWOL. But this has been debunked by the press because as a student at the University in Chicago BS was in sit-ins.
Finally, all the aforementioned Black Southerners genealogies with the exception of Marion Barry--I have not researched his, though he was very pro-sub-Saharan Africa--are Mendes.
I hope Skip Gates of Harvard University researches Malcolm X's genealogy. I would not be surprised that he was a Konkay.

Impiare !
(Some of the uninitiated will think that this is an imperialist greeting)
You know that I am neither a racist nor a tribalist ( but I am a Zionist / post-Zionist).
I should like to ask you and I would like you to explain it to us about you and some of the Negroes over there, how come they are showing such overwhelming love and support for Ohporto Hillary C? Am I missing something? Why not Bernie? What has Hillary ever done to deserve their support?
I am patiently waiting for a reply from you which will be grounded on "facts and comprehensive research"
Seke yo !
Cornelius

Consequently, many have failed and will continue to flunk whenever they have questioned my ideas.Racism is based on socio-economics and political power (S.E.P.), and most White Americans "know" they are losing S.E.P. power.I do not want to elucidate excessively because I will opine on how the Republicans created Donald Trump. But racism goes back to the creation of humanity, the founding of the United States, slavery, the 1964 elections et cetara.Blame "conservative" ideology for, 'Wealthier Americans are living longer lives, while the poor are living shorter ones.'The most conservatives White are, "Poorly educated, middle-aged American white males are particularly affected, multiple recent studies suggest. While Americans from other age, racial and ethnic groups are living longer lives than ever before, this particularly segment of the population is dying faster."Due to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's social democracy and the New Deal, "It's interesting to compare the situation in the '30s, which I'm old enough to remember," he said. "Objectively, poverty and suffering were far greater. But even among poor working people and the unemployed, there was a sense of hope that is lacking now."Most conservatives then and now have bought into President Ronald Reagan's nonsense and have nobody to blame, but themselves for, "...hopeless, despair and anger."William Bangura (Arrogant Konkay)On Mon, Mar 14, 2016 at 3:54 AM, Cornelius Hamelberg <cornelius...@gmail.com> wrote:Your opinion could never be false in as far as it is yours.
