Last week in St. Louis Missouri, a racially-charged pamphlet has been the latest attempt made by Democrats to win minority votes in the African-American community.
“This is what they used to do to keep us from voting,” proclaims the brochure, featuring a photo of a 1960’s snapshot of a firefighter hosing a colored person.
“Now Attorney General John Ashcroft is trying to prevent African Americans from voting at all. Don’t let them do it again."
Missouri Democratic spokeswoman Sarah Howard insists she absolutely will not pull the flier.
This is an outrage. This year the attempts made by both parties to win votes have been nothing but a horrible election process for both parties. This flier is dirty politics at its best.
This is an attempt to get African American voters to vote for Sen. John Kerry by lying to them. They are showing voters how they were intimidated not to vote in the 1960’s and telling them that the Republicans don’t want them to participate in this years elction process. The fliers are simply misleading and have no basis in fact.
The local mayor simply advises voters, “Not to be intimidated.”
