Kamala Harris Presidential Campaign (Official Thread)

[Apollo Creed]

Not the same as a half caste elite ruler class over a 90% black country, rich off of slavery money invested into businesses around the area.
Similar, but not as powerful or pervasive.

Id say the end product is similar when it comes to how they think and carry themselves. How many of those familes got their wealth is where things begin to differ.

Like many of the Boule/old black money familes in the USA have stories that are respectable and often taught to us to inspire us, but how the descendents of the person who got the initial wealth carry themselves is often very different then their ancestor who sacrificed.

The country hated Barack?

He won both of his presidential elections in landslides.



Of course there were 30-40% of the deplorables who hated him, but he still got a majority of people to rock with him. His approval rating today is STILL high. He will be remembered as the best president since JFK or FDR.

I agree with everything you said except him being remembered with JFK and FDR, he left zero policies and did nothing for minorities except LGBTQ..

If anything he was thelected most popular and media lived celebrity type president ever

The only people who say Obama didn't do anything for blacks are misinformed people.

Start here: Progress of the African-American Community During the Obama Administration

Then here: The civil rights legacy of Eric Holder

There was no "dreamer act". Obama just gave an executive order not to deport adults who were brought here illegally as kids by their parents.

Obama granted clemency to more black people than any previous presidents COMBINED. That alone is more consequential than his executive order for dreamers.

He didn't have a singlular "Save Black People" act that I guess you're looking for but he did plenty of good things for black people, when taken as a whole are very consequential. In addition to the links I posted above, just take look at the list of things Trump has tried to reverse that Obama enacted to help ease the plight of blacks in America:

• Literally the first thing Trump did when he got into office was reverse Obama's criminal justice initiatives related to closing private federal prisons and he also stopped all investigations into police departments having been excused of brutality.
• He had the Justice Department dropped its long-standing positions and investigations into voter ID laws meant to keep blacks from voting.
  
• Trump's Department of Housing and Urban Development rescinded a proposed Obama-era rule that would have required more justification for public housing agencies seeking to demolish public housing projects in urban communities.
  
• Trump reversed a rule requiring large companies to report worker pay by race and gender in order to decrease the wage gap through greater pay transparency.
  
• Repealed Obama-era regulation that restricted drug-testing for job seekers receiving unemployment benefits.
  
• Trump rescinded Obama’s 2014 Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces meant to apply 14 labor and civil rights laws to federal contractors, who now will no longer have to provide documentation of their workplace practices.
  
• Rescinded an Obama-era Justice Department letter that asked local courts across the country to be wary of slapping poor defendants with fines and fees to fill their jurisdictions’ coffers.
  
• The Department of Labor changed its interpretation of a law regulating when contractors can be held liable for employment and civil rights law violations
  
• Overturned the sweeping criminal charging policy of former attorney general Eric H. Holder Jr. and directed his federal prosecutors to charge defendants with the most serious, provable crimes carrying the most severe penalties
  
• Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered Justice Department officials to nix Obama-era reform agreements with troubled police forces nationwide.
• Gutted Lifeline, the program dedicated to bringing phone and internet service within reach for people of color, low-income people, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities, with particularly egregious consequences for tribal areas. They also voted to eliminate several rules promoting competition and diversity in the broadcast media, undermining ownership chances for women and people of color.
  
• the Trump administration announced it would terminate the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation in 18 months for approximately 59,000 Haitians living in the United States.
  
• the Trump administration released new guidelines that allow states to seek waivers to require Medicaid recipients to work – requirements that represent a throwback to rejected racial stereotypes.
  
• the administration announced its decision to bar citizens from Haiti from receiving H2-A and H2-B visas.
• the Office for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Education released a new Case Processing Manual (CPM) that creates greater hurdles for people filing complaints and allows dismissal of civil rights complaints based on the number of times an individual has filed.
• Secretary Ben Carson proposed changes to federal housing subsidies that could triple rent for some households in urban communities and make it easier to impose work requirements.
  
• the Department of Housing and Urban Development announced it would be publishing three separate notices to indefinitely suspend implementation of the 2015 Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule.
  
• Secretary Ben Carson proposed changes to the Obama-era Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule, which aimed to combat segregation in housing policy.
• the Department of Justice ended its Obama era agreement to monitor the Juvenile Court of Memphis and Shelby County and the Shelby County Detention Center in Tennessee, which addressed discrimination against Black youth, unsafe conditions, and no due process at hearings.

That's just a small subset of some of the policies that Obama enacted that affect us. He did a lot that people sadly are not aware about, but Trump and his administration sure are aware.

Whats interesting is AADOS have always had a boule buffer class but these recent presendential candidates havent been AADOS (kamala and obama). Like how have they not groomed any of these AADOS boule agents for the presidential stage when there is enough of them at the state and local level?

These “well to do” “black elite” types exist in every ethnic group.

THEY WILL NEVER LET THE DESCENDANT OF AN AMERICAN SLAVE BECOME PRESIDENT.

ITLL ALWAYS BE SOME IMMIGRANT CAC IN BLACKFACE
WHO HAS NO REAL CONNECTION TO THE PPL

THEY KNOW EVEN A BOULE c00n
WOULDNT SIT BACK AND DO NOTHING
WHILE BLACKS ARE BEING MASSACRED IN THIS COUNTRY.

Obama, in response to the rampant police brutality, also directed his Justice department to launch investigations into police departments. This resulted in more investigations into troubled police departments than ANY OF OBAMA'S PREDECESSORS INITIATED. These investigations resulted in several reform agreements (which Trump and his Justice Department nixed when he got into office).

But boule c00ns have stood back while blacks have been slaughtered. They are the mayors and leaders in many of the local governments these things happen in. They won't even talk about the issues let alone push for state level protections lol.

Boule c00ns are the ones who stood on the front line with the clintons and others when it came to the 94 crime bill.

We gotta stop giving folks the benefit of the doubt. A c00n is a c00n. I dont care if they are from Detroit or Kingston

This is a bold faced lie. Take Ferguson, the home of Mike Brown for instance:

On 2nd day of tenure, newly elected STL County Prosecutor fires the prosecutor that handled the Mike Brown case and failed to indict, and issued new policies including no longer prosecuting marijuana offenses and failure to pay child support payments cases.

Bell fires veteran St. Louis County prosecutor who presented grand jury evidence in Michael Brown case

CLAYTON • On his second day in office, St. Louis County Prosecutor Wesley Bell fired the veteran assistant prosecutor Kathi Alizadeh, who was primarily responsible for presenting evidence to the grand jury that declined to indict a Ferguson police officer in the 2014 shooting death of Michael Brown.

Bell also issued new policies, such as no longer prosecuting marijuana possession and failure to pay child support cases.


Alizadeh, as she loaded her office supplies into her SUV on Wednesday morning, said Bell gave her a two-page letter describing grounds for termination. She would not elaborate and said she would be speaking to her lawyer. She had worked for the office since May 1988 and earned $135,000.

Full airing of evidence before grand jury in Brown shooting was overwhelming task
Our article from November 2014.


LAW AND ORDER
Read the testimony the grand jury heard

Bell was sworn in Tuesdayafter defeating longtime St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch last year in the Democratic primary.

He held a 15-minute meeting with staff in the county’s council chambers Wednesday morning. He said he made three changes that he declined to describe, adding that “we wish the three individuals well.”

Bell declined to give specifics on the personnel changes after the meeting.

Ed McSweeney, a 34-year veteran of the office who earned $119,974 yearly, said Wednesday that he was suspended pending a termination hearing. McSweeney said the action came because of an August Facebook post criticizing Bell. The Riverfront Times reported that McSweeney said, “County voters will soon regret what they did.”

Sources told the Post-Dispatch that the third person suspended, pending a termination hearing, was Jennifer Coffin, who earned $75,171 yearly. She declined to comment.

The St. Louis Police Officers Association, which represents two of the three prosecutors affected, said it was “dismayed” by the action.

“Despite Mr. Bell’s rhetoric about building bridges with career prosecutors, he has apparently decided to suddenly discharge three dedicated public servants in his first hours in office,” union president Ed Clark said in a news release. The union called for their reinstatement.

The policy changes issued Wednesday included:

• No longer prosecuting marijuana possession cases of fewer than 100 grams. Prosecution of more than 100 grams will be pursued only if evidence suggests the sale or distribution of marijuana. (St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner announced in June that possession of fewer than 100 grams would not be prosecuted unless there are aggravating circumstances.)

• Not prosecuting people who fail to pay child support. Current cases will not be dropped, however; they will be on hold. Not seeking to revoke probation solely on the basis of failure to pay child support.

• Not seeking charges against those who fail to pay restitution without a court order establishing someone’s “willful nonpayment” of child support.



• Not requesting cash bail on misdemeanor cases; issuing summonses instead of warrants on class D and E felony cases.

• Not seeking to “overcharge” defendants “to pressure the accused to admit guilt.” Prosecutors are barred from adding more counts to increase the range of punishment or threatening to route cases back to a grand jury if a defendant has exercised his or her pretrial constitutional rights.

• Evaluating a defendant’s “prior conditions of release when there has been a failure to appear on an open case” and not asking for cash bail if there is no evidence someone has tried to elude police or used an alias “in a police encounter.”

• Requiring prosecutors to share “the entire contents” of a criminal case file to the defense except for work product to fulfill Supreme Court rules for disclosing evidence.

• Barring prosecutors from threatening witnesses “in an effort to force them to participate in prosecutions.”


Bell told the staff “the door is open” to his office for questions and reminded them that “nobody should be talking to the media.” Bell announced that former St. Louis city prosecutor Sam Alton would be his chief of staff, that former North County Police Cooperative Chief Tim Swope would be the director of operations and that longtime prosecutor Doug Sidel would join the executive staff. Bell also said Assistant Prosecutor Teresa Bomkamp would head the sex crimes unit.

Bell told staff that he lamented being unable to meet with them before his swearing-in and said he was “not here to take shots at the prior administration.”

The prosecutors voted last month to join the St. Louis Police Officers Association but have yet to publicly state their reasons. Prosecutors and investigators in the office have said privately that they voted to organize not out of fear of Bell but to preserve anticipated pay raises brought by the passage of Proposition P, the measure that set up a sales tax for public safety.

Bell, a former Ferguson councilman, won last year’s election on a platform to “fundamentally change the culture” of the prosecutor’s office. He told staff he would be meeting with them individually this week.

Alton, the chief of staff, told the staff that the new administration was “fired up” and that the primary goals initially were “keeping the county safe” and alleviating the caseloads of assistant prosecutors. He also asked the staff to eliminate “sniping,” “pure speculation” and “gossip” about the new administration.

Alton said “it appears to us the old regime kind of thrived on some intimidation, some schoolyard activities, bullying, whatever you want to call it.”

“We see things real differently,” Alton said. “We’re all on the same team. … You’re here for the county. We’re really all here for the county. We’re all here to succeed.”

This story was corrected to reflect that McSweeney confirmed his suspension Wednesday.(tncms-asset)835685ae-061a-11e9-a77c-00163ec2aa77[2](/tncms-asset)
