Even though It made me throw up a little in my own mouth, I watched this entire video. It was difficult. Enduring such a concentration of utter sexist bullshit is never easy. This man not only wants us to buy into Reagan's "welfare queen" myth, he wants to blame single mothers for attitudes held by African American youth. In order to swallow that, one must buy into the lie that single mothers choose to be single mothers, and not because they have been abandoned and left to struggle alone by deadbeat men. As a single mother who raised sons from the time they were toddlers until adulthood, I can attest that this is not the case the majority of the time. Although I am not African American, I did struggle financially, sometimes working as many as three menial jobs at a time to keep my children housed and fed - in a housing project! My sons were abandoned by their deadbeat dad, who absented himself both physically and financially from parenting on any level. Not only is Tommy Sotomayor not "brilliant" by any stretch of the imagination, he is a sexist moron.

No small part of the reason for black women not being married is that their prospective partner has been arrested for a drug crime and sentenced to decades under mandatory minimum sentencing. If the Innocence Project is any indication, a significant portion of the convictions were based on evidence planted by the police, and pursued by racist prosecutors.

While some Blacks may bring up the issue of Blacks-as-perpetual-victims, the reality of discrimination and ill-treatment is still all too real. Also real is that this complaint won't get much traction in a society which is intensely bigoted and maintaining a strong White Nationalist leaning. So it is wise for Blacks not to focus on being victims, but rather to lobby for ending racist (as practiced) drug war laws.

I think it's hilarious that right-wingers track down individual members of the superminority of black people that are Republicans and then try to raise them up in this pandering fashion.

Guys, I know it's a surprise to you, but there ARE black Republicans. It doesn't make them right, but neither should you pimp them up on a stage like they're a dancing novelty.
