Al Sharpton's Chicago Town Hall Erupts into Revolt Against Machine Politics
Miracles never cease! If we can get grass roots politics to overthrow the corrupt machine politics in CHICAGO then we can get this done anywhere and we can cleanse this country over night of its political professional class and return the control of the parties to THE PEOPLE.
TPM folks should support this movement in Chicago in everyway those people are willing to accept.
This was a historic event, Paul McKinley of V.O.T.E. (Voices of the Ex-Offender) and former 2nd Congressional District GOP nominee to replace Jesse Jackson, Jr. told Breitbart News. Not because of Al Sharpton coming to town, he continued. This was first time since electing Mayor Harold Washington in the eighties that all of these grassroots groups and community organizers have come together under one roof to talk about the problems plaguing our community....
The manner in which we have been voting needs to change, Wendy Pearson, an activist against Chicago school closings, told the room. Im here to say to you that we have been trained to vote in a specific manner we need to start looking at the manner in which our elected officials have been voting if they have not voted in a manner that is beneficial to you, yours, and your community, then you need to start voting them out.
McKinley told the room, Stop blaming just anybody for the violence in the city of Chicago. Blame the right people, not just white people, but the right people....
McKinley called on President Obama to help the grassroots by discontinuing aid and government grants that go through Chicagos political machine to name-brand-blue-ribbon-negro-organizations such as the NAACP and Urban League. McKinley told Breitbart News those groups are poverty pimps, and are part of the problem and not the solution.
Miracles never cease! If we can get grass roots politics to overthrow the corrupt machine politics in CHICAGO then we can get this done anywhere and we can cleanse this country over night of its political professional class and return the control of the parties to THE PEOPLE.
TPM folks should support this movement in Chicago in everyway those people are willing to accept.
