DEBUNKED: Mainstream Media's Hillary-loves-Blacks-myth

As the mainstream media continue to perpetuate the myth that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are the best thing that ever happened to the black race, and we (yes, even we non-Americans) are worse-off with their loss, reality on ground is a different keg entirely!

I've always wondered why blacks would need to go the extremely foolish (yea, desperate) act of actually trying to outshoot the nation's official law-enforcement agencies.  With a black man in the Oval Office, and no doubts hundreds of extremely competent black officers in service, why can't we simply have a black man as the nation's police chief?  Simply because the George Soros of this world have found us the very useful pawns in their crazy end-time new world order game. Obama, Hillary, and co are mere stooges of the Establishment, with their anti-christ agenda such as homosexuality etc, which they push with all vigor against all common-sense and decency. All the while using gullible Blacks (as they do the "Palestinian Arabs") as canon fodders.

The article below, a commentary reflecting why real African-Americans DID NOT vote Hillary, contrary to the frenzy hypes in a place like Nigeria (well under the sway of the Obama campaign machinery) is instructive.

"Let me begin by saying this, I am a 37-year old African-American man raised in Texas. As a kid, I had to actually battle racist groups like the skin heads, while actual hate crimes that I took on as a 14-year old caused the KKK to organize a rally in my town in 1994."

"Oh yeah, I donated the computers and furniture to Barack Obama's first campaign office in Minnesota in 2007 and I most recently gave Hillary Clinton a maximum donation early this election season as I was excited to see the first female president of the United States."

"When I finally got into the ballot booth and checked away at local, state and national Democrats on my ballot, I chose a different route for president. I voted for the hundreds of thousands and black non-violent criminals incarcerated as a result of the mandatory minimums. I voted for a more transparent system of deploying aid to underserved countries. I voted for the dream of seeing black millennial and general unemployment rates reach the levels of other races in America. I voted for the hope that entitlements will put accountability measures in place in order to keep low income black parents involved in their kids education as well as help spur job creation over well fare in some cases. I voted for a hope of making black America great again too. I voted for an end of 30 years of establishment rule in America.

I voted for President Donald Trump, with hopes that God frees his mind of the bias and division long enough to do great things for blacks and all the citizens of our great nation"
==============================

Let me begin by saying this, I am a 37-year old African-American man raised in Texas. As a kid, I had to actually battle racist groups like the skin heads, while actual hate crimes that I took on as a 14-year old caused the KKK to organize a rally in my town in 1994.
I was blessed to go on to earn a college scholarship as a two-sport athlete, I played professional football, worked on Wall Street and completed two Masters' programs. I am currently a UN ambassador for peace and sport and I have dedicated my life to serving and bringing resources to some of the most underserved black populations on the planet. I've also worked aggressively to try to improve race relations between law enforcement and black youth in the US through my #Stand2Protect Campaign.
Oh yeah, I donated the computers and furniture to Barack Obama's first campaign office in Minnesota in 2007 and I most recently gave Hillary Clinton a maximum donation early this election season as I was excited to see the first female president of the United States.
In 2012, African-American voter participation exceeded that of white voters for the first time in our nation's history. The black vote made such an impact that, in 2012, it accounted for Obama's entire margin of victory in seven states, which included Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia (Cook Political Report 2015).

Black-voter participation has increased over the past three elections cycles since 2000 – that is, until Hillary Clinton led the ticket.
Clinton swayed popular black elites and icons such as President Barack and Michelle Obama, Jay Z, BeyoncĂ© and even Ohio's own Lebron James to fan the country in key states – but to no avail.
So, what kept me and countless other black voters from rallying behind the Hillary train once voting day came on Nov. 8?

She is tied to Bill Clinton’s crime crackdown that resulted in the over-incarceration of young African-Americans

As CNN contributor Van Jones and others so eloquently displayed in the Netflix documentary The 13th, Former President Bill Clinton's crime bill resulted in more blacks being sent to prison for non-violent crimes than during any other president's administration in our nation's history. Not only did he enforce and promote mass incarceration at that time, he went on to stand behind these policies for almost 20 years. If there is one thing that has stripped underserved black communities of opportunity, it is the unwarranted incarnation of non-violent black men and women that has left hundreds of thousands of families without their fathers or mothers.
It doesn't stop there. Clinton also went on to enforce mandatory minimum punishment laws that still today are putting a dagger in many lower and middle class black families. These mandatory minimum punishments are the single biggest reason that the unjust imprisonment of American men and women is still the highest of any country in the world.
While these are policies from the BILL Clinton administration, people always associate these policies with "The Clintons." It's something she could never shake. (Read more )


She campaigned on Obama’s economic agenda

Then, there's the Obama factor.
In this election, Clinton constantly campaigned on the successes of the Obama economic agenda.
Now, I've praised President Obama on his amazing management of the great recession as well as his consistent job growth and overall economic progress. However, that success, unfortunately, includes every race except for blacks. The unemployment rate for blacks is nearly 9 percent and remains twice that of whites .
As the unemployment rate for blacks has risen, the same stats for whites, Asians and Latinos declined in the latest October 2016 jobs numbers from the Labor Department. The youth unemployment rate for blacks ages 16-24 has been over 18 percent this year and is more than double the rate of the white youth unemployment rate.
One would hope that the healthy 16-24 year olds who make up our nation's most underserved race would be a vibrant work force. Well, the fact is that nearly 60 percent don't work at all.
The unfortunate reality is that, for a growing number of underserved blacks in this country have lost the American dream under Obama. Backing Obama's economic policies did Hillary Clinton no favors with millennials and working class blacks when it came to jobs and the economy. Blacks also had to take into account that Hillary and Bill themselves amassed $100 million to$200 million in personal wealth.
Throw in Obamacare premiums rising at staggering rates and this had to push a number of black voters away from supporting the Clinton ticket, as they dealt with the realities of financial struggles.

She missed an opportunity to show the black community support

During the campaign, Hilary Clinton attacked Donald Trump for highlighting troubles in our urban areas, even if his wording lacked class.
The statistics are staggering: Twenty-five percent of black parents in America report that their children live in unsafe neighborhoods, according to the US News and World Report on education published last year. Thirty-four percent of high-school freshmen who are held back in our school system are African-American, nearly three times the rate of whites. Blacks also make up 42 percent of students who receive multiple out-of-school suspensions nationwide. Statistics show that 40 percent of white students finish their college degree in four years, compared to only 20 percent of black students.
Why wouldn't she just agree with Trump that there are problems that need to be addressed? That would have conveyed to the black community: I hear you. I'm here to help.
And, in this new age of transparency and the internet, where every word you say gets recorded and re-tweeted, it's more important than ever for political candidates to say things that are directly aimed at and support key constituencies.
Of course, the internet recorded Donald Trump's history of racial discrimination and his divisive tone toward women. But, what transcended that was Trump's anti-establishment stance. That has finally taken the wool from over the eyes of many African-Americans — including myself — in relation to the Clinton family, media and the establishment.
It's been hard to face the facts on how our underserved black lives have gotten worse, not better under our beloved President Obama. The undeniable truth about the Clintons has been disappointing to many because they've prided themselves on improving the lives of African-Americans for decades, even as their incarceration policies crippled our communities at its core.
Blacks have supported the Clintons, campaigned for them, donated to them and considered them one of our own. (Remember when people called Bill Clinton the "first black president?")
African-American comedian Dave Chapel recently voted for Hillary Clinton but made it clear that he didn't feel good about it as he stated "She's not right and we all know it."
When I finally got into the ballot booth and checked away at local, state and national Democrats on my ballot, I chose a different route for president. I voted for the hundreds of thousands and black non-violent criminals incarcerated as a result of the mandatory minimums. I voted for a more transparent system of deploying aid to underserved countries. I voted for the dream of seeing black millennial and general unemployment rates reach the levels of other races in America. I voted for the hope that entitlements will put accountability measures in place in order to keep low income black parents involved in their kids education as well as help spur job creation over well fare in some cases. I voted for a hope of making black America great again too. I voted for an end of 30 years of establishment rule in America.
