Democrats Court Al Sharpton; Ignore Past of Racism, Antisemitism, Incitement

Breitbart

"Democratic presidential candidates are descending on New York City to court Al Sharpton at his National Action Network (NAN) convention this week, ignoring Sharpton’s long history of racism, antisemitism, and incitement. 

"All of the major declared candidates for the 2020 Democratic nomination — and some potential candidates — are attending Sharpton’s conference, a remarkable fact at a time when many are also voicing concerns about extremism.

. . .  "The candidates are using the event to pander to black voters, as O’Rourke did in endorsingreparations.

"But Sharpton is so radical that then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) did not want his endorsement when he ran in 2008. But when black activists began criticizing President Obama from the left, Obama urned to Sharpton for help.

"Rehabilitated by Obama and the left-wing media, Sharpton reinvented himself as a political kingmaker in the Democratic Party.

"But the candidates vying for Sharpton’s support must overlook a controversial record, as Breitbart News has noted:" . . .

Robert Francis O’Rourke jumps on the ‘slavery reparations’ bandwagon  "Add the fake Hispanic running for president to the list of Democrat lemmings rushing toward the cliff of so-called reparations for slavery. Robert Francis O’Rourke, whose charisma has been sufficient to convince the Associated Press (the most pervasive purveyor of news to Americans) that Spanish is his “native language”, must by now believe that he can sell anything to anyone. He uses the con man approach when he promises to establish a commission to ”study” the reparations (Sheila Jackson Lee’s idea), allowing a pander to blacks who want free money, while allowing plausible deniability and a complete fudge on the critical details (for instance, do Vietnamese boat people immigrants have to pay money to recent immigrants from Jamaica?)" . . . Think about that last phrase a bit and you'll catch on. TD
