In the movie Blue chips, Nick Noltay after a big win, coming back from consecutive losing seasons; goes off about the polluted college game – about having to pay players under the table in order to win.

“He laments “because this ain’t about education, it ain’t about winning, and it sure as hell ain’t much about basketball; it’s about money.”

He went on to scream, speaking of the booster who financed their cheating that “that guy’s got the best players money can buy, the best players money can buy.”

Well, Hillary Clinton has the best Negroes money can buy; cause this sure ain’t about senserity, it ain’t about change, and it sure as hell ain’t much about the people - it’s about politics.

For months now, the Clintons have lined up prominent Black devoutee after prominent Black devoutee to tell us how “good massa(master) has been to us”.

I hadn’t, somewhat, decide on Obama until recently, and my vote is subject to change (not in favor of Hillary though) as I see Edwards as at least equal in most regards; but I could never understand how months ago Blacks could have already decided that Obama might not be the better candidate; that they weren’t even giving him a chance.

Here we have a viable Black candidate, and you’re not even waiting to see what he might have to offer?

It was clear that they were going with the safe bet, the big money, the intrenched political machine that could benefit them; hedging their bets on their white puppet master.

Early on they started coming in the summer with likes of:
John Lewis – former SNCC leader in the civil rights movement and long-term Congressman
Magic Johnson
Corrine Brown - Congress woman
Kendrick Meek – Congressman
Quincy Jones
Robert Johnson – founder of BET and owner of the Charlotte Bobcats

More recently, even as Barack has become more viable the likes of the following have endorsed Clinton:
Rep. Calvin Smyre - the head of the National Black Caucus of State Legislators
Jacqueline Jackson – wife of Jesse Jackson
Bunch of Black Ministers in SC - www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22111927/

Negroes even had a Black specific pep rally to bow and shuffle for her.

But Andrew Young (who sold us out for Wal-Mart money a long time ago) took it to new heights. One upping the utter ass-hats in the Congressional Black Caucus of Congress who officially recognized Bill Clinton as the first Black president, he says that Bill is “every bit as Black as Barack”, in order to make sure that his massa gets Black support over Obama.

Malcom X gave a demonstration of the defeatist Black attitude of those who cow tow to white folks for self-affirmation saying, that the House Negreo was close to his master (as opposed to the field Negro). “If the master’s house caught on fire, the house Negro would fight harder to put the blaze out than the master would. If the master got sick, the house Negro would say, “What’s the matter, boss, we sick?” We sick! He identified himself with his master more than his master identified with himself. And if you came to the house Negro and said, “Let’s run away, let’s escape, let’s separate,” the house Negro would look at you and say, “Man, you crazy. What you mean, separate? Where is there a better house than this? Where can I wear better clothes than this? Where can I eat better food than this?” That was that house Negro. In those days he was called a “house nigger.” And that’s what we call him today, because we’ve still got some house niggers running around here.”

The Malcolm quote comes from Message to the Grassroots.

Likewise, these good house Negroes are running around now talking about, ‘uuuhh, we can’t leave our our massa and misses Bill and Hillary. These good white folks. We get fed here. We get our pockets lined by the Clinton. Who will take care of us Black folk if not good white folk? Noooo, I loves my massa’.

These good House Negroes get fed and have their pockets filled by the democratic political machine, and there’s too much opportunity with the entrenched Clintons for them to even consider an upstart Black, especially one who threatens their position where they leach off the Black community for their own personal gain, and to the detriment of their people.

Notice none of these folks come out for Edwards even though his platform is more congenial to the Black body politic than Clinton’s. Why, Edwards doesn’t have the entrenched political position of the party machine.

I’m not telling Black folk that they necessarily have to line up behind Barack (I’m not apart of his devoted cheer squad myself), but to not even consider the brother; then to go on the attack to diminish a viable Black candidacy; and then further highering themselves out like 10 dollar whores to be used as proxies to make race based attacks on behalf of some white folks, is evidence of the self-serving malignancy we’re seeing from these “Leading Blacks”

That’s right, as Dr. Julia Hare describes, there is a difference between a Black leader and the leading Blacks.

It starts off talking about school discipline (which is good stuff too), but the “Leading Blacks” part starts at the 55 second mark

I totally disagree with her that we don’t have to have black leaders anymore, but that’s another discussion for another day; everything else is on point though. And leading Blacks aren’t new, there’s is just such a dearth of real Black leaders now that the leading Blacks standout more than ever.

Who are some other leading Blacks that I’ve left off the list that never gave Barack a chance or have personally bashed him as surrogates for the Clinton’s?
