And yet he runs uncontested! Fix THAT!:angry::hmm:
He's old, comfortable, and has rich donors. Term limits anyone? Get him the fuck outta there or we got nuthin' to be bitchin' about.

I don't live in his district but from what I can gleam on line the shit is in bad shape for BLACK PEOPLE.

He sold out BLACK PEOPLE AND BLACK COMMUNITIES long ago for the crumbs from the table at the "BIG HOUSE" and khazarian interest.

He deserves no respect, loyalty or love from BLACK PEOPLE AND BLACK COMMUNITIES.

I can't argue any of that at all, sadly.:(:smh: This is probably common across all Districts under the CBC too.
I'm in Gwen Moore's District in Milwaukee and unless there's some shit that benefits the Party or the Establishment, she's MIA like a muhfucka.

I wrote myself in for her Seat. I wasn't gonna vote for a Republican in running for a District that is overwhelmingly Black (and Democratic to a detriment in some cases, I suppose) but she toes the Party line and needs a viable Black Candidate to run against her.

It's a tremendous challenge because they are deemed to be useful to the Powers that Be. Having said that, there is NO need to shit on an historical icon of that Era...replace him. Put Pops out to pasture.

He and many like him are not going quietly.

To get them out of office would take:
  • biting the hand that feeds them. And never in a million years would he do that
  • natural cause death
  • a major scandal that could not be contained by those who control him

This is true. I found it out the hard way back in the mid 90s when I fancied myself wanting to make changes in my Community and run for Alderman.
I rolled up on the scene and muhfuckas in the know reacted like :lol::roflmao::roflmao2::roflmao3::roflmao3::roflmao2::roflmao::lol:

Yall must be slow or really don't understand how governance works. Local politicians can only do so much in red states backed up by a conservative house, senate and president, especially states like Wisconsin that are ran but blatant white supremacists like Scott Walker.

She's the US Rep, not State. That IS true but she'd have to actively put forth a Bill or proposition for those clowns to actually obstruct. It hasn't really happened.

BROTHER,

These People would not do shit for BLACK PEOPLE if they had the green light.

There god, guiding light and moral compass are these political party platforms, talking point and ideology.

They got put there because those ideals are more valued over BLACK PEOPLE and BLACK COMMUNITIES. And these are BLACK POLITICIANS.

Look at how long somebody who was really trying help BLACK PEOPLE AND BLACK COMMUNITIES like Cynthia Mckinney lasted versus crooks like:
  • Maxine Waters
  • John Lewis
Who have sold out their people communities, morals and dignity.

Fuck all these crooks democratic or republican!

US Reps typically deal with national politics not local politics. The reason your district is fucked up is likely because of state politics hampering local politics. We have dealt with the same thing in STL, for example our local politicians passed legislation to hike minimum wage which was veto'd out of spite by republican state legislators.

They're coming for you lol

We all know that Obama did not have the senate there were ONLY 56 democrats and 2 independents.

And we were clearly told that without a super majority of 60 their hands were tied...



Of course George W barely had 50 and pushed his agenda, but we were consistently told by the democrats they needed 60 for Obama.

Progress of the African-American Community During the Obama Administration


Key Accomplishments

Labor Market, Income and Poverty

  • The unemployment rate for African Americans peaked at 16.8 percent in March 2010, after experiencing a larger percentage-point increase from its pre-recession average to its peak than the overall unemployment rate did. Since then, the African-American unemployment rate has seen a larger percentage-point decline in the recovery, falling much faster than the overall unemployment rate over the last year.

  • The real median income of black households increased by 4.1 percent between 2014 and 2015.

  • The President enacted permanent expansions of the Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit, which together now provide about 2 million African-American working families with an average tax cut of about $1,000 each.

  • A recent report from the Census Bureau shows the remarkable progress that American families have made as the recovery continues to strengthen. Real median household income grew 5.2 percent from 2014 to 2015, the fastest annual growth on record. Income grew for households across the income distribution, with the fastest growth among lower- and middle-income households. The number of people in poverty fell by 3.5 million, leading the poverty rate to fall from 14.8 percent to 13.5 percent, the largest one-year drop since 1968, with even larger improvements including for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and children.

  • The poverty rate for African Americans fell faster in 2015 than in any year since 1999.While the poverty rate fell for across all racial and ethnic groups this year, it fell 2.1 percentage points (p.p.) for African Americans, resulting in 700,000 fewer African Americans in poverty.

  • African American children also made large gains in 2015, with the poverty rate falling 4.2 percentage points and 400,000 fewer children in poverty.
Health

  • Since the start of Affordable Care Act's first open enrollment period at the end of 2013, the uninsured rate among non-elderly African Americans has declined by more than half.Over that period, about 3 million uninsured nonelderly, African-American adults gained health coverage.

  • Teen pregnancy among African-American women is at an historic low. The birth rate per 1,000 African-American teen females has fallen from 60.4 in 2008, before President Obama entered office, to 34.9 in 2014.

  • Life expectancy at birth is the highest it’s ever been for African Americans. In 2014, life expectancy at birth was 72.5 years for African-American males and 78.4 for African-American females, the highest point in the historical series for both genders.
Education

  • The high school graduation rate for African-American students is at its highest point in history. In the 2013-2014 academic year, 72.5 percent of African-American public high school students graduated within four years.

  • Since the President took office, over one million more black and Hispanic students enrolled in college.

  • Among African-Americans and Hispanic students 25 and older, high school completion is higher than ever before. Among African Americans, Hispanics, and Asian students 25 and older, Bachelor’s degree attainment is higher than ever before. As of 2015, 88 percent of the African-American population 25 and older had at least a high school degree and 23percent had at least a Bachelor’s degree.
Support for HBCUs

  • The U.S. Department of Education (ED) is responsible for funding more than $4 billion for HBCUs each year.

  • Pell Grant funding for HBCU students increased significantly between 2007 and 2014, growing from $523 million to $824 million.

  • The President’s FY 2017 budget request proposes a new, $30 million competitive grant program, called the HBCU and Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) Innovation for Completion Fund, designed to support innovative and evidence-based, student-centered strategies and interventions to increase the number of low-income students completing degree programs at HBCUs and MSIs.

  • The First in the World (FITW) program provided unique opportunities for HBCUs to compete for grants focused on innovation to drive student success.

  • In 2014, Hampton University received a grant award of $3.5 million.

  • In FY 2015, three FITW awards were made to HBCUs, including Jackson State University ($2.9 million), Delaware State University ($2.6 million) and Spelman College ($2.7 million).

  • While Congress did not fund the program in fiscal year 2016, the President’s 2017 budget request includes $100 million for the First in the World program, with up to $30 million set aside for HBCUs and MSIs.
Criminal Justice

  • The incarceration rates for African-American men and women fell during each year of the Obama Administration and are at their lowest points in over two decades. The imprisonment rates for African-American men and women were at their lowest points since the early 1990s and late 1980s, respectively, of 2014, the latest year for which Bureau of Justice Statistics data are available.

  • The number of juveniles in secure detention has been reduced dramatically over the last decade. The number of juveniles committed or detained, a disproportionate number of whom are African American, fell more than 30% between 2007 and 2013.

  • The President has ordered the Justice Department to ban the use of solitary confinement for juveniles held in federal custody. There are presently no more juveniles being held in restrictive housing federally.
My Brother’s Keeper

  • President Obama launched the My Brother’s Keeper initiative on February 27, 2014 to address persistent opportunity gaps faced by boys and young men of color and ensure that all young people can reach their full potential.

  • Nearly 250 communities in all 50 states, 19 Tribal Nations, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico have accepted the President’s My Brother’s Keeper Community Challenge to dedicate resources and execute their own strategic plans to ensure all young people can reach their full potential.

  • Inspired by the President’s call to action, philanthropic and other private organizations have committed to provide more than $600 million in grants and in-kind resources and $1 billion in low-interest financing to expand opportunity for young people – more than tripling the initial private sector investment since 2014.

  • In May 2014, the MBK Task Force gave President Obama nearly 80 recommendations to address persistent opportunity gaps faced by young people, including boys and young men of color. Agencies have been working individually and collectively since to respond to recommendations with federal policy initiatives, grant programs, and guidance. Today, more than 80% of MBK Task Force Recommendations are complete or on track.
Advancing Equity for Women and Girls of Color

  • In 2014, the Council on Women and Girls (CWG) launched a specific work stream called “Advancing Equity for Women and Girls of Color” to ensure that policies and programs across the federal government appropriately take into account the unique obstacles that women and girls of color can face. In fall 2015, CWG released a report that identified five data-driven issue areas where interventions can promote opportunities for success at school, work, and in the community.

  • This work has also inspired independent commitments to advance equity, including a $100 million, 5-year-funding initiative by Prosperity Together—a coalition of women’s foundations—to improve economic prosperity for low-income women and women and girls of color and a $75 million funding commitment by the Collaborative to Advance Equity through Research—an affiliation of American colleges, universities, research organizations, publishers and public interest institutions led by Wake Forest University—to support existing and new research efforts about women and girls of color.

  • At the United State of Women Summit in June 2016, eight organizations launched “Young Women’s Initiatives,” place-based, data-driven programs that will focus in on the local needs of young women of color. Those organizations include the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota, the Women’s Foundation of California, the Women's Foundation for a Greater Memphis, the Washington Area Women’s Foundation, the Dallas Women’s Foundation, the Women’s Fund of Greater Birmingham, the Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts, and the New York Women’s Foundation.
Small Business

  • There are 8 million minority-owned firms in the U.S.—a 38% increase since 2007.

  • In early 2015, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) launched the MBK Millennial Entrepreneurs Initiative, which seeks to address the challenges faced by underserved millennials, including boys and young men of color, through self-employment and entrepreneurship. A major component of this effort included the six-part video series, titled “Biz My Way,” which encourages millennials to follow their passion in business.

  • In fiscal year 2015, underserved markets received 32,563 loans totaling $13 billion, compared with 25,799 loans and $10.47 billion in fiscal year 2014, an increase of 26 percent in number of loans and 24 percent in dollar amount.

  • Last year, the SBA issued a new rule that makes most individuals currently on probation or parole eligible for a SBA microloan—a loan of up to $50,000 that helps small businesses start up. And in August 2016, SBA together with the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and Justine Petersen, launched the Aspire Entrepreneurship Initiative, a $2.1 Million pilot initiative to provide entrepreneurship education and microloans to returning citizens in Detroit, Chicago, Louisville and St. Louis.
Civil Rights Division

  • The Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division continued to enforce federal law.Over the last eight years, the Division has vigorously protected the civil rights of individuals in housing, lending, employment, voting, education, and disability rights and through hate crimes and law enforcement misconduct prosecutions and law enforcement pattern and practice cases.
African-American Judicial Appointees

  • President Obama has made 62 lifetime appointments of African Americans to serve on the federal bench.

  • This includes 9 African-American circuit court judges.

  • It also includes the appointment of 53 African American district court judges—including 26 African-American women appointed to the federal court, which is more African-American women appointed by any President in history.

  • In total, 19% of the President’s confirmed judges have been African American, compared to 16% under President Bill Clinton and 7% under President George W. Bush.

  • Five states now have their first African-American circuit judge; 10 states now have their first African-American female lifetime-appointed federal judge; and 3 districts now have their first African-American district judge.

  • Also, the President appointed the first Haitian-American lifetime-appointed federal judge, the first Afro-Caribbean-born district judge, the first African-American female circuit judge in the Sixth Circuit, and the first African-American circuit judge on the First Circuit (who was also the first African-American female lifetime-appointed federal judge to serve anywhere in the First Circuit).

  • The President is committed to continuing to ensure diversity on the federal bench. This year, the President nominated Myra Selby of Indiana to the Seventh Circuit, Abdul Kallon of Alabama to the Eleventh Circuit, and Rebecca Haywood of Pennsylvania to the Third Circuit. If confirmed, each of these would be a judicial first—Myra Selby would be the first African-American circuit judge from Indiana, Abdul Kallon would be the first African-American circuit judge from Alabama, and Rebecca Haywood would be the first African-American woman on the Third Circuit.In addition, two of the President’s district court nominees—Stephanie Finely and Patricia Timmons-Goodson—would be the first African-American lifetime-appointed federal judges in each of their respective districts, if confirmed.

  • It also includes the appointment of 53 African American district court judges—including 26 African-American women appointed to the federal court, which is more African-American women appointed by any President in history.

  • In total, 19% of the President’s confirmed judges have been African American, compared to 16% under President Bill Clinton and 7% under President George W. Bush.

  • Five states now have their first African-American circuit judge; 10 states now have their first African-American female lifetime-appointed federal judge; and 3 districts now have their first African-American district judge.

  • Also, the President appointed the first Haitian-American lifetime-appointed federal judge, the first Afro-Caribbean-born district judge, the first African-American female circuit judge in the Sixth Circuit, and the first African-American circuit judge on the First Circuit (who was also the first African-American female lifetime-appointed federal judge to serve anywhere in the First Circuit).

  • The President is committed to continuing to ensure diversity on the federal bench. This year, the President nominated Myra Selby of Indiana to the Seventh Circuit, Abdul Kallon of Alabama to the Eleventh Circuit, and Rebecca Haywood of Pennsylvania to the Third Circuit. If confirmed, each of these would be a judicial first—Myra Selby would be the first African-American circuit judge from Indiana, Abdul Kallon would be the first African-American circuit judge from Alabama, and Rebecca Haywood would be the first African-American woman on the Third Circuit.In addition, two of the President’s district court nominees—Stephanie Finely and Patricia Timmons-Goodson—would be the first African-American lifetime-appointed federal judges in each of their respective districts, if confirmed.

lol some of that is reaching.... the part about he pick ninetee percent "african american" judges.. but thats only three percent more than racist ass bill clinton..

whose racism came out loud and clear when Obama first ran for president... talkin about Obama sayin some shit like..

"cmon guys you know this guy wouldve been carryin our bags a few years ago"

but Obama was the best President we had in a very very very long time...

even though healthcare is still a joke he had done more to reform it then any other president we had...no doubt...

and all the blame is not on him...he is not the leader of "black" people

he was the leader of the corporation we call america...so he is gonna do what it is in his scope to do and not wander outside that....as the first "black" president... they wouldve been more than happy to jfk him..

I digress tho..

end of the day... democrats are still pussy, and the republickkklans will just bend over take their corporate orders...and do what they want and bend rules as much as possible..

democrats need to start bending rules as much as possible.. and not just play this game of... oh we need your vote.. so we care about what you have to say.. untill election day...

that shit is played out...

You do realize that the GOP sat on all his judicial nominees both his terms, right? Due to his there was a shitload of empty judgeships that under the GOP Trump has been filling like crazy with conservative judges. He could have been far more effective than he was, but didn't have a congress to support him and it had less to do with the otherside voting in unusually high numbers than it did with dems sitting home.

Now the GOP has been gerrymandering districts to keep dems out of power, so dems have to have superhigh turnout to gain seats.

Let the others tell it tho, voting doesn't matter. Stop letting folks with an Obama grudge sway you from the facts.

uh true.. but they had a majority never the less..

and they just sat their fiddling with their lil clits and balls...

while the fags yelled demands at them and they cowered...and forgot all about their "black"constituents...

its was never about any type of economical or situational progress for us..

we always get mindfucked into worrying about crime..

now that the fags have gone as far as they can go... they gonna need us to go further..


and we shouldve been peeped dat game...and stopped playing..

that reparation thing couldve happend his first year in office...

and while I like Obama and what he represents..

I know who he is and who his allegiance is with and it aint with "pookie"

and more with his harvard ilk...

saw how fast he had a beer summit when one of his harvard coon buddies got in trouble with some racist pig faggot..

Having a simple majority means nothing when you need a supermajority in the senate to pass laws. The republicans where able to obstruct Obama during his entire 8 years because the dems never had a filibuster proof majority in the senate. Blaming Obama and the dems for this shows a clear lack of understanding of how governance works.

This needs to be stickied somewhere. You often hear the complaint about the empty judicial seats Obama left as if to imply he was negligent and lazy in filling the courts. Also needs to serve as a reminder how despicable these muthafuckas are.

You can keep repeating this but it won't make it true. Republicans can't do anything without 60 votes either (except for judicial nominees and budgetary matters that only require 50+ votes). This is why they have accomplished NOTHING legislatively except for tax cuts.

Im sayin when obama first got elected they had the house and the senate..

and aint do a gotdam thing but worry about fags 24/7...
They're coming for you lol

What he said is irrefutable though. It's the truth. We got the ole "Wait until my second term" statement. With the amount of pure obstruction that he faced in his first term, he could've been writing those Executive Orders a whole lot earlier and thrown us some tangibles.

In part because the newly elected Democrats don't start until next month. Republicans are in a manic rush to get as much of their agenda through as they can before this happens

lol....

cmon son... left wing , right wing its all the same fuckin bird..

there is nothing to understand but their job, is to keep you from focusing on those that really call the shots..

I think to not understand THIS fact shows lack of understanding of how THIS world really works.....

republikkklans are the scummiest of scum.... but at least they go hard in their scummyness...

dems try to paint their scummyness in rainbow colors then point at it and say..

look how pretty it is... then charge you for the paint by raising your taxes....

Im not gonna front I got the largest tax return ever in President Obamas last year..

and in Trumps first year I got one of the lowest ever.....

so it aint like Im fiending for these corporate whores to stay in power..

I just want to see the dems not be so shook daddy of the republiklans..

they are a lil better now, but they was playin big pussy during the bush years..

that shit was embarassing, it was only the Cynthia Mckinnleys, and a few others that stood up, the rest were a fuckin joke... lost a lot of respect for them durin them bush years....
