BLUEPRINT FOR A DEMOCRATIC VICTORY IN NOVEMBER

- Image via Wikipedia
Politics can be one sticky game.
With the expiration of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of the country, the Democratic Party is looking for a new gameplan to ensure a victory in the upcoming House and Senate Midterm Elections this coming November. They’re heading into a really tough situation against the opposing Republicans, many of whom are projected to take seats in the House and Senate away from the Dems. This is all thanks to anti-incumbent fever among the people, many of whom are still waiting for President Barack Obama to deliver on the promises he made when he got elected 2 years ago during a worsening economy. The Dems also have to deal with the anti-establishment rage that the GOP and the Tea Party have been fueling with the help of the Fox News Channel. Right now, the Democrats are trying to find any way possible to win in November.
If I may, I would like to offer the Dems some advice. In fact, I’d like to offer more than just advice…I would like to give a blueprint on how the Democratic Party can win every election from now until kingdom come, and literally crush the Republican Party in the process.
It’s actually very elementary, really.
“BLACK MALE PRIVILEGE”

An interesting thing came up on Twitter today. Apparently, there’s a term going around called “black male privilege“. Simply put, it’s the notion that too much attention has been focused on the struggles of black men (excuse me while I gag) and that black women are being left out as a result. Really?? (Check the picture to the right for a “privileged” black male.)
THE TEA PARTY

I had promised this article a while ago, but so much more material is given to me day after day that I have to take everything into account. Word to Rand Paul and Sharron Angle. But what better day than Independence Day to expose the Tea Party for what it really is?
MEN & FASHION
To help illustrate my point, check out this AT&T commercial advertising the Motorola Backflip:
I’ll keep this one short and simple: Any grown man who takes this much of an interest in fashion is suspect.
10 MISTAKES OBAMA MADE AS PRESIDENT

[Last edit: 4.1.10]
I’ll try to make this as chronological as possible:
1. Bailouts. Enough said. Not to mention appointing Timothy Geithner as Treasury Secretary knowing good and well how connected he is to the people on Wall Street who are robbing us of our money.
2. Taking the police’s side in the senseless murder of Sean Bell, and saying nothing about Oscar Grant III or the disturbing pattern of young black males being killed by police.
OBAMACARE IS HERE. SO WHAT NOW?

219 in favor. 212 opposed. Obama’s healthcare legislation is finally here.
So what now?
