Former BET CEO Robert Johnson is a very weathy man. Stepin Fetchit and Bo Jangles were wealthy as well. Paul Roberson was a comparable pauper.  Stepin and Bo accepted their roles and gained monetarily. Roberson complained about the staus quo and was punished.

Johnson, who made money depicting the thug and drug culture as glamourous, while demeaning African-American women is a Clinton cultural icon. The Clintons can be proud of their good friend.

Prior to Johnson and Maggie Williams, African-American Democrats could point to Ward Connerly, Lee Elder, Armstrong Williams et al. as examples of how Black Democratic activists differed from Black Republican activists. You will never see Black Conservatives rushing to the cameras to attack someone like Kentucky Rep Geoff Davis for calling Obama "boy". They will also remain silent when other White Conservatives made racially charged statements. But they will appear in droves to attack Obama.

Black Democrats tended to speak truth to power. Bill Clinton was challenged on his Sistah Souljah statement when he began his first campaign. Black Congressmen who do not speak out or are too close to the GOP are replaced. Note the recent departure of MD Democratic Rep Al Wynn.

The Clintons have made us aware that just like there are Steppin Fetchit Republicans, there are Stephin Fetchit Democrats. Both groups of political comedians are free to speak their minds. That is the American way.

Pimp hustler Johnson is free to state that he agrees with Geraldine Ferraro. I am free to say that I disagree with both Johnson and Ferraro.
I will think of Johnson when I think of Hillary Clinton.

A sad truth is that the Supreme Court has done major damage to Affirmative Action. Ward Connerly is pressing forward with a state by state attack. The African-American community will respond by adapting. The focus will be on state college admissions based on position in the high scholol graduating class for all high schools in a given area. The SCOTUS becomes less of an issue.

I just cannot vote for Hillary Clinton. I began this campaign season with Hillary as my choice.
She has disappointed me on too many occasions. I will vote for Congressional and state seats. I will write in Obama, if Hillary is the nominee.  I see nothing in her campaign to suggest a President that would make me proud.
