Dr. Cornel West in calling the President a disaster is no surprise. Afterall, when one considers that he was the preeminent intellectual who everyone admired and talked about, next to his sidekick Tavis Smiley. Now here comes that darn Senator from Illinois who had the audacity to become the President! Now they are not getting as much attention as they used to receive. So what do you do to counter that reality? You attack the perceived opponent with old issues that should have been addressed years ago but were never discussed. Issues like poverty-been around for over 50 years but under the Obama presidency, you have a poverty tour! Interestingly enough, there was the State of Black America where the issues that plagued black america was discussed, a book was published by Tavis smiley but no solutions have been proposed to the Obama administration, only complaints from jealous schoolboys who cannot handle their emotions. Where were this dynamic tag team during the Bush administration? Where were they during the torture of prisoners of america? where were they when Troy Davis was murdered? Where were they when the hate language and subtle calls for the assassination of our President over the past 3.5 years took place? Where were they when Newt called the President a food stamp president? Maybe they can weigh in on these questions or admit that they are jealous of the success of another intellectually astute black man who transcends race and is trying to help others and is not sitting in his ivory tower and condescending to the less fortunate. Jealousy is an ugly thing and America will always remember their labor of hate.

This isn't about the GOP. This is about US BLACK PEOPLE and what we have become. We're following the wrong leaders or so-called leaders. Anyone can be a HUSTLER!!! In my HOOD the HUSTLERS were the BEST because thats all they could be. The END.

Actually my family taught me to judge someone by what they do and not what they say. That said, when is the republicans going to legislate some jobs for Americans that they said they would 3.5 years ago.

James Wilson why haven't you and others like you exposed the phoneys in the whitehouse? I'm just an investigator of discrimination who tried to enforce the Rule of Law for all. Many knew the obama's were MOBBED-UP with the DALEY GANG an LASALLE STREET BOSSES. I wanted a messiah also but foundout the messiah was with the wrong side (GANG). This is just like Germany of the 1930's. Our people Black people are very naive about messiah's and politic's. We have become worshippers of phoney's like obama's and professor sanders types. Everyone is a HUSTLER of US as a people. The Black elite/intellectuals must take responsibility for this dilemma? We all share the blame in our community. Please respond. I saw the clown show held in chicago by Tavis.

You and other self hating morons like you are the reason why our education system is in disarray, why our country was near bankruptcy, why work place harassment is at an all time high, because you give free passes to the real culprits or apologize for their divisiveness in american politics. I never hear you talk about the persons who are voted into office by the american people with the responsibility to pass laws. Boehner-free pass, Cantor-free, McConnell-free pass, lying a$$ Romney-free pass, Ryan-free pass and the racist teaparty-free pass. But you always disrespecting our President! Really? People see through your chicken eating, watermelon eating, spineless, butt kissing behind who make excuses for everyone who has been making racist comments about our President but try to call him out. You belong back on the plantation and if he loses, it would be due to the rhetoric that you slaves spew out of your mouths. I hate that the establishment starts with you and the rest of you Toms first and take your money, house, and make you sleep under a bridge. Good day!!!

Ricardo,

I'm surprised that you would accuse me of not attempting to inform people that they have been swindled. That's what I've been doing from the very beginning. So have many others. You and I have different ways of doing things. I'm not going to get involved in an ad hominem (mud slinging) contest with zealots like the professor. Nor am I going to ad hominem the president. I see no educational value in that. I speak to policy issues. I deal with facts. I study, expose, and fight zealotry delirium. Why? Because I view it as maladaptive to the political interest of African Americans.

These are very serious times for our people! This is no time for ego-tripping. At the very time when the very existence of African Americans is threatened, many are less mentally prepared to face these challenges than at any time in history. They have lost their way. "History," according to the great scholar / historian, John Henrik Clarke, "does not forgive those who lose their way."

That African Americans have lost their way is evident in the fact that many are vehemently supporting their own demise, while believing they are supporting best interest. I have explained this fact in great detail on this site. Not only that, but I have explained the scientific method and model that were used to achieve this.

The professor is my ongoing case study in this regard. Note how he, in delirious rants, name calls and accuses those who disagree with his zealotry of not attacking Republicans and being Uncle Toms, etc. But the facts show that all I do is attack Republicans when I speak of "Right-Wingers." Whether these Right-Wingers are Democrat or Republican. On the other hand, he is the one who is supporting Republicans, because he is supporting their policies. He doesn't know this, of course, because the policies have been ASSOCIATED with his altered-ego. Hence, he is a zealot. And, therefore, has analyzed nothing.

There are certain approaches that must be taken with zealots. One such approach is to maneuver them into doing what they loathe doing -- thinking outside of the realm of control of their mind masters; their personality-cult leaders. This can be done by avoiding argumentation, and pointing out discrepancies.

The professor is a treasure trove of discrepancies. For example, he lashes out in delirious fits about others failure to criticize Romney, yet it is him, not me, who supports RomneyCare. Why does he support it? Because RomneyCare was implemented by his his personality cult leader. Then, too, to show you how upside down the media have people thinking--Romney is campaigning against his own Wall Street Health care bailout plan.

I don't have time for that kind of stuff, man.

Then the professor claims that if the president loses, it will be because of something critics have said. How more insane can he be? Here's a man who was elected with a mandate. Polls showed after the election that well over 75% of people of all groups supported him. If such a candidate loses, it surely will be because of his own behavior (policies) and not because of what some else said. But in the mind of  zealots, their idol of worship is perfect. Every thing bad must be some one else's fault. Black Americans, for example, do not know their own experiences of economic suffering over the past four years. At least they wouldn't if some one else didn't tell them. I dare him insult the humanity of African Americans by implying such nonsense.!!!!!

He uses terms like "Aunt Jemina," "slave," etc., to describe Blacks who disagree with his zealotry delirium. That tells me that he does not respect himself nor his ancestry. He claims to be an educated "professor." But what kind of education does he have that teaches him to mock his own ancestors? Our ancestors were not "slaves." They were "enslaved."

Again, I study and fight zealotry delirium as defined in my first response to this post. While I consider you a friend, I take exception to your baseless charges. I'm not going to engage you in further discourse on this matter. Nothing I do regarding public discourse is personal. Remember, you do what you do, and I do what I do. I'm waiting for you to conclude your exchanges with the professor so I can engage him on the subject of mass incarceration and current public policy in that regard. I want to do this with him because he is a criminal justice expert, so he says. 

 

James Wilson, what about our Poor and Working Class (Black People)??? They don't understand your methodology nor the manipulations of obama's and/or professor sanders of this world. Too many educated people just USE our POOR AND WORKING CLASS GOOD HARD WORKING BLACK PEOPLE!!! I will fight and expose anyone who hurt or use my people HARD WORKING SALT OF THE EARTH POOR AND WORKING CLASS people. I FIGHT FOR THE RULE OF LAW FOR ALL. The difference between US is I learned to fight in the HOOD of SE Washington DC in and around the Projects. I will STEAL YOU. I nolonger have anything to say to professor sanders of this world. I lived in Germany as a soldier and understand their nightmare experience with Nazism and Hitler of that time. We are repeating that experience. My language is for the people who I fight for, my people "Black People".

Ricardo,

This discussion is taking place on this site. In all probability, most people on this site can understand the  fundamentals of the concept I presented. If they can't, but want to, they will either research on their own, or post back for clarification.

Many "poor and working class" Black people have a better understanding of political "stunting," "fronting," and "posing" than most people. They are the ones "catching the hell."

I applaud you for your spirit.

Many of our people don't know who and what richard daley and his brother are (gangsters) of chicago. When individuals like the obama's MOB-UP with the daley's our people don't get the meaning. The Black media and civil rights leadership or so call leadership of the NAACP are pimping our people. Rev. Al also pimps our people to the whitehouse gang. Everyday I communicate with GOOD people both Black and White they don't understand. Education which was denied to US at one time, should be used to uplift our people not hold them down. The projects of DC are mostly gone now. Many who lived there were GOOD HARD WORKING BLACKS and MIXED people. I will continue to fight for my people. I remember upper class Blacks saying in the barber shop" All can't over come" "Some must stay on the bottom". I didn't like that statement and never will accept it. James Wilson you fight your way and I will fight my way. I tell you this they will remember when I STEAL THEM!!!

Professor,

I've just glanced your post on "The Top Ten Corporations " that have donated the most money to political campaigns. What I found quite disturbing about the post are two things:

(1) It is an outright shameless act of plagiarism. The article, as meaningless as it is to your intended point, has appeared verbatim on numerous websites (including, I believe, this one), yet you did not cite any source of the information. You attempted to make it appear as if you'd done the research and subsequently wrote the piece yourself. Not citing sources of information used in writings, and even , in your case, taking the entire body of someone else's work, putting your name on it and claiming it to be yours is a no-no!!

Why would you do such a thing? No one can become a professor without knowing that sources must always cited. The cause of your behavior, then, must lie elsewhere.

(2) In your introductory sentence--the only part of the piece that you actually wrote, as evidenced not only by its zealous content, but the fact that it is not part of the main article I'd read else where days earlier-- you wrote, "While we are denegrating [sic] our president, talking about poverty, exempting other groups in the black community from personal responsibility," etc., you make it clear why you do not care about the suffering of the masses, and why you attack with ad hominem abuse anyone else who does care.

You believe that the millions of impoverished Blacks (and other poor) are that way, not because of public policy, but due to a lack of personal responsibility. As I explained in my post on this site, Is there a crisis of sanity in much of today's Black America, that has long been the Right-Wing's favorite propaganda stick used against the Black poor (victim blaming) and that many politically insane Blacks have begun to adopt it as their own proof of progress since 2008 when the Right-Wingers won control over most Black minds after many decades of failed efforts to do so. In that statement, you confirmed that not only are you supporting Right-Wing Republican policies, RomneyCare, etc., but you share their ideology as well. So please, don't bore us ever again with your "Newt said this, or that" nonsense. You think the same way about poor Blacks as does "Newt." It is a disgrace!!! The only difference is "Newt" knows better, he's just hustling his base that believe that nonsense. So, perhaps it is more accurate to say that you believe as "Newt's" base believes about poor people in general, and Blacks in particular.

Moreover, how can you accuse others of being irresponsible, when you are a plagiarist? And you did it as an introduction to your plagiarism at that. Is that what you're teaching your students?

That behavior not only cements my diagnostic impression of you as a psychopathic zealot, but others must also see it clearly by now as well. 

That is the reason my response to that post of yours is on this page, and not on the page where you exhibited the unacceptable behavior described in this response. I wanted to keep it on the page where the diagnostic impression was made, in order to support the diagnostic impression.

On the point you tried to make, but doesn't have the talent to make, regarding who is donating money to the presidential candidates: both Wall Street candidates are being financed by super pac bundling, Wall Street lobbyists, and hedge fund gamblers, etc. Both plan to raise unprecedented amounts of campaign funds. The president (who broke the record in 2008 with more than $750 million in Wall Street cash) plans to raise $1 billion this time, and Romney plans to raise $850 million.

The problem for the president in this regard are 2:

(1) This time his opponent is a bonafide Wall Street insider who can raise money, unlike 2008.

(2) The president has turned off many of his original big donors like George Soros, with his Right-Wing policies. And his phony anti Wall Street rhetoric has turned off some in the FIRE (finance, insurance, and real-estate) businesses who gave him hundreds of millions in 2008. (See Obama's not too hot date with Wall Street, NY Times; 6/5/12), also see Obama's fund raising a little more awkward this time, The National Journal, 7/3/12.) 

If you and others, rather than spending your time running around in zealous amok, trying to find evidence of some one's hating someone else, would open your hearts to love  those less fortunate than yourselves, and do serious study of policies in a relentless search for truth and facts, you'd develop the talent to help our community move forward. Instead, due to situational mental illness (zealotry delirium) you are supporting Right-Wing policies that have always held back our people, and claiming to be struggling for "Civil Rights" by supporting anti Civil Rights acts. You do this because these anti African American policies have been associated with a false symbol of Civil Rights. And you don't know it because you ain't researched nothing, just personality-cult worshipping and acting a fool against those who have been responsible whenever your zealous sore spot is touched too hardly.

Note: For those who don't understand what I'm trying to explain about people being led in the wrong direction, please read: The health care trap, by Shamus Cooke, Counterpunch, 7/2/12.

Next, let's discuss criminal justice and current policies. I know you are willing to do it, your teaching the subject and all.
