From The Huffington Post:
During an appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday, Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann was given an opportunity to set the record straight with regard to comments she made earlier this year lauding the nation's Founding Fathers for working "tirelessly until slavery was no more in the United States."

Michele Bachmann is a "LIAR"! She and her circle group are the over 50 culture shock. They don't see all people are to be created equally. These are false christians who serve a false God. They don't know the God of heaven.

......people people when will you learn that Barrack Hussein Obama's administration.....is a continuation of the Bush-Reagan era let's look at prez Obama's actions.....he bailed out wall Street at taxpayer's expense claiming that if we didn't the economy would collapse.....he has failed to implement an immigration policy that would curb the overwhelming influx of undocumented workers....
He has kept two wars afloat and has committed the U.S. military to a third conflict with Libya without congress approval...he has asassinated an alledged terrorist without any kind of trial or due-process of law.....he has had a hand in the middle-east to depose certain leaders and dictators the U.S. feels is not in the best interest of the U.S. thus creating a dominoe effect of civil-unrest within the middle-east countries totally ignoring their sovereignty...this man is obviously an agent of the shadow-government that has taken over this country through the bloodless coup that took place when former President George Bush stole the election from Gore. Stop supporting any and all presidential canidates until the people demand accountability from the office of the President.

There is an old saying "Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it" I suppose then if you haven't a clue about history, then you can't really ignore it, huh? I'm quite sure the only History class they taught at Oral Roberts was Bible History.... Maybe we should require candidates to pass a GED test before they're allowed to run. We could have avoided George Bush that way.

“...Michael as usual you are correct...most black people do not understand the dynamics of politics to begin with!..They actually believe in the policies of the democratic party as a positive for Black people. Neither the Dems, or Republicans truly represent blacks, both parties are managed by the same puppeteer. We need to implement our own political party that would truly represent the interest of blacks and other minorities who are fed up with the broken promises of candidates once they achieve their goal of securing the office of presidency.” By NubianPrince
“I grew up in the inner city of Chicago in the Harold Ickes housing project. I listened to my parents condemn the Republican party and swore by the Democratic party. As a young child I was very observant and continued to watch and listen into my early adulthood. I watched as Aldermen came to our door promising change and over the years I only saw deterioration. The schools deteriorated and as well as the housing. Nothing really improved during the sixteen years we lived there. I finally started to self-educate myself and learned that the majority of the KKK clan originated out of the Democratic Party. The history of the DP shows no favor towards African Americans. I am neither Republican nor Democrat. I don't rely on any one party or the government to change my life or dictate who I should vote for. I happen to like Michele Bachman. Primarily, because she is pro-life. Since so many African American and female babies have not been allowed to enter into this world due to this atrocity I must follow the person regardless of the party who embracing the future of country to be given the gift of life just as our present President was given. Black Americans struggles for years to obtain freedom in this country. I listened to my grandfather and parents share about their struggles in the South. Now we have become so sophisticated and PC that we feel we can decide who comes into this world. The is the same frame of mind that bigots used against forced slavery. People need to stop all of the superficial rhetoric and look deeper into the history of why we are in this moral and economic dilemma rather than testing and criticizing trivial "I got ya". Where are the solutions? Basically the same problems exist as they have for years, promise after promise, they still exist. I don't care what kind of make-up a candidate wears or her glasses or the grade she received in history. I care about the here and now and what can be done…….” By Ms. Mac
Indeed NubianPrince and Ms. Mac,
Since the ‘60s the Democratic Party has held control over the “inner-city”, and in most every instance the inner-city, especially where U.S. born Black men and women live, is in worse shape today than at any other period of history.
In jurisdictions to where the Republican Party are large and in charge:
1. Limited government policies are promoted.
2. U.S. Veterans, especially the rights of returning U.S. War Veterans are respected and honored.
3. The U.S. Constitution and the "rule of law" are honored and respected.
4. Free enterprise thrives.
5. Poverty is not as prevalent or not evident at all.
6. Property owners are not dependent on “Section 8 benefits”, destructive social welfare policies, penal incarceration, breaking up families, abortion clinics, taxpayer financed government controlled mental health clinics as the primary source of earnings from being gainfully employed.
7. Incompetence is neither rewarded nor tolerated.
8. Elected officials who do not serve the taxpaying residents who reside in these jurisdictions are removed from office.
9. Government social welfare benefits or policies that destroy the traditional family structure for profit do not take place in any Republican Party controlled jurisdiction.
10. Lower tax rates or less taxation are promoted to promote savings and business investment.
Without respect to party affiliation, one key solution is to hold the elected officials accountable to his or her oath of office, be it at the local, city, county, state and/or federal level of government. Holding an elected official accountable to his or her oath of office to uphold the “rule of law”, the U.S. Constitution, a respective State Constitution must not be of high concern or importance with the typical Black electorate.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath_of_office_of_the_President_of_the_United_States
Oath of Office of the President: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm)that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Unfortunately President Obama and/or other Black leaders affiliated with the Democratic Party elect to refrain from upholding his or her sworn oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution in behalf of law abiding U.S. born black men and women violated by government.
Typically the Black electorate accepts the excuses to do nothing from President Barack Obama, multiple members of the Congressional Black Caucus, etc., etc., which means the Black community enslaves itself!

”The Drug War: Jim Crow in the Age of Obama" by The BV Staff on Aug 2nd 2011, Black Voices Black Spin
Indeed "Jim Crow", "Black Code Law Enforcement", etc., has more to do with the ineptness of the NAACP and the contempt that our own elected Black leaders have for the rule of law, the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, etc.
".......Bachman would just as soon see Black Folks back in slavery!!" by kocolate
.......more likely no good President Barack Obama, Kwame Kilpatrick, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and/or other misfit sellout elected Black leaders fit that description.
"OBAMA AND PLANTATION POLITICS" by Frances Rice
http://www.personal.psu.edu/glm7/m502.htm
http://www.ceyseau.net/IneptElectedOfficials.html
Indeed President Barack Obama, Kwame Kilpatrick other misfit elected Black leaders and no good U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas want to make U.S. born descendants of slaves "fodder" for the system.
The most important function of every elected official is exercising his or her oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution, the "Bill of Rights"., etc., in behalf of his or her constituency.
In addition President Obama, the Felon Kwame Kilpatrick and/or other treasonous elected Black leaders are doing more harm to U.S. born descendants of slaves Black community than all the years of "Jim Crow", any "David Duke" KKK member etc., by not competently representing law abiding U.S. born Black people, other U.S. citizens and legal immigrants.

It won't be business as usual.........
I welcome the redistricting process to remove an incumbent or any other elected official who takes my vote for granted.
http://www.ceyseau.net/
Furthermore past and present elected black leaders affiliated with the Democratic Party don't have a clue as to the essence of what it means to be an elected official.
Elected officials are mandated by law and under oath to uphold his or her oath of office as mandated by the U.S. Constitution, to serve law abiding U.S. citizens, U.S. born descendants of slaves being inclusive and legal immigrants. This fact alone may very well kill off the "Democratic Party", the political party that serves illegal/undocumented immigrants, promotes "Jim Crow/Black Code Law Enforcement over the "rule of law", at the expense of the rights of law abiding U.S. citizens, and legal immigrants.

Speaking from experience, should a law abiding taxpaying inner-city resident and U.S. born descendant of slavery petition past or current day elected Black leaders affiliated with the Democratic Party for redress.....
..........President Barack Obama, former Congresswoman Diane Watson, Congresswoman Karen Bass, the Democratic Congressional Black Caucus, former 2nd District LA County Supervisor Yvonne B. Burke, 2nd District LA County Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, 10th District LA City Council Herb Wesson, 8th District Los Angeles City Councilman Bernard Parks, etc., etc., etc., ......
..... typically the petition is ignored, trashed, left unanswered, and/or the petitioner receives a worthless response that has no connection to the serious issues presented , as it pertains to the actual grievance presented to bring light to very serious criminal acts, civil tort violations, and truly un-Constitutional acts on the part of agents and officials of government!
.........The contempt for the "rule of law", the U.S. Constitution, shown to voters, such as yours truly, by these inept elected officials is causing U.S. born descendants of slaves to form alliances with the Tea Party movement , the Republican Party, and/or prompting untold numbers of the Black electorate to leave never to return to the Democratic Party.
