NAACP: Turnout Won´t Be
Same Without Obama on Ballot

Breitbart´s Big Government, by Tony Lee

Original Article

Posted By:Dreadnought, 11/10/2012 4:32:43 PM

NAACP President Ben Jealous said Democrats may have trouble motivating voters -- especially African Americans -- without Obama at the top of the ticket in future elections. Jealous told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Democrats “must quickly figure out how to motivate these voters who – if Obama is not at the top of the ticket – simply go away." According to an NAACP Georgia poll, "enthusiasm for re-electing the country’s first black president accounted for about 5 percentage points in Georgia" this year. There was a similar pattern of black enthusiasm in other states like Ohio.

Oh, I´m sure if enough goodies are offered they will come out and vote. Nothing like cashing in on the government stash.

In other words....what? They only vote color? Is that something to be proud of?

For once they speak the truth. The Democrat win was not based on people being happy with the directions of the country. It was another ´´think with your heart´´ moment.
The 2014 mid terms will resemble 2010 (not that it will matter much by then). And Dems will have to keep nominating candidates who enrage and inflame the Democrat base in order to win. At some point it will burn itself out.

Don´t worry Ben. By 2014 you will have been replaced by a new minority-of-choice.

" ... At some point it will burn itself out... "

Yes, and it may torch this great nation.

You know what really bothers me the most?

I spent 6 years of my life in the military.

Volunteered for the Navy.

Volunteered for Vietnam.

Volunteered for hazardous duty, while there.

I was fighting for my freedoms.

Now I know what a waste that was.

But those church vans from the negro churches, with the added inducements of packs of cigarettes, malt liqour, and pizza parties all put president zero over the top.
No whitey will receive such support.
But I expected such support from the hood. And I am disappointed in the uninformed votes of the hispanics.

He can´t be on any future ballot for President.

Yes, yes I know fellow Ldotters. I´m just making a point.

Don´t worry NAACP. Moochelle Obama is quietly sending out trial balloons for a 2016 presidential run. Even though she has even less experience and is just as corrupt Barack is, you ACORN people can rally around her.

The only problem I see is, Joe Biden will also be running to continue his term after Barack is impeached.

Remember, NerØbama told us this was his final campaign. He won. Therefore, we don´t need any more ballots.

One man, one (okay, two - but the second was rigged) votes, one time.

Translation: Yes, of course we´re bigots. We vote for color, period. That´s why we demanded absurdly-gerrymandered districts so electing outstanding blacks like Cymfia McKinney and Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson-Lee and the rest would be easy for the voters there.

[I expect Elbridge Gerry to some back any day now to avenge the misuse of his name and his namesake brand of political mischief.]

The two races are further apart now than any time in the past half century - and four more years of Obama´s racist policies and pronouncements will make it worse.

Ben and his fellow negroes in the NAACP be so smart!!!! Of course a black will make a deal with the devil to vote for someone who is black regardless of the felonies, assaults, thefts, rapes, robberies...past history supports this so don´t try to deny. A more worthless organization you cannot find!!!

After Obama, look for the liberal Democrats to find an Obama clone to run, as here we already have the NAACP warning them that there must be a black person on the 2016 Democrat ticket. Hillary Clinton knows all about that.

Mr. Jealous, a simple solution. Simply keep nominating Blacks in perpetuity. Why change a winning formula? And certainly, the odds are at least one of them may be competent and not given to race-hating.

They will motivate them the way they have always done in the south - a ride to the polls, a barbecue, a coke, and a sample ballot with the choices checked.
I really have trouble respecting some one who would sell his vote.

I have a different take on the racism in this election. I don´t think those people liked the "beautiful blue-eyed blonde" as the FLOTUS. Racism has come to America, and guess who is in the minority?

#7 - Thank you. Your personal courage and commitment flew in the face of those who went because they had to. We here appreciate what you did, and what all our military has done through the years. Our history has been filled with unhappy periods but we always came about because we´re Americans and that´s what we do. I will not accept that the can-do spirit is a thing of the past. Chin up.

Ben Jealous shouldn´t be worried. By then, the courts will have changed the Constitution so that Obummer can run for a third term or convicted felons, drug lords, illegal aliens, etc. can run on the ballot. That should excite the voters.

Mr. Jealous could have saved his breath - he didn´t need to tell me they voted skin color - so that makes them racist, right? No? Oh, my bad. Oh, that´s right; I´m the racist because I voted against Obama and his policies regardless of his skin color.

Liberals used to love to quote the (apparently apocryphal) line from a Sinclair Lewis character “When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and waving a cross.” Wonder if they’re reflecting on that this week? We knew that early in the first term, the White House attempted to exclude a news agency from pool reports. Now come revelations that the Justice Department engaged in sweeping eavesdropping on AP journalists; that the IRS targeted conservative private citizens while favoring liberal ones; that the EPA charged fees to conservatives groups while waiving them for “green” activists;

MOORE, Okla. — Spotlights bore down on massive piles of shredded cinder block, insulation and metal as crews worked through the night lifting bricks and parts of collapsed walls where a monstrous tornado barreled through the Oklahoma City suburbs, demolishing an elementary school and reducing homes to piles of splintered wood. At least 51 people were killed, including at least 20 children, and those numbers were expected to climb, officials said Tuesday. The storm stripped leaves off trees and left scores of blocks in Moore barren and dark. Rescuers walked through neighborhoods where Monday´s powerful twister flattened home after home

Steve wrote this morning about a hearing being held this week by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, in which Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, will testify tomorrow. The subcommittee apparently is trying to highlight supposed tax avoidance on the part of American companies, as the Associated Press reports: Apple Inc. employs a group of affiliate companies located outside the United States to avoid paying billions of dollars in U.S. income taxes, a Senate investigation has found. The world’s most valuable company is holding overseas some $102 billion of its $145 billion in cash, and an Irish

Gunmaker Smith & Wesson tops the list of best businesses in bright blue Massachusetts — after not making the list at all last year — a new report in the Boston Globe found. The 161-year-old company, based in a state with some of the stricter gun control laws in the nation, tried to diversify its holdings by acquiring a security company in recent years, only to do an “about-face” by focusing on its product line, the newspaper said in its explanation of the Springfield firm’s top spot. “We went back to what we do best, which is handguns,”

Journalists, First Amendment watchdogs and government transparency advocates reacted with outrage Monday to the revelation that the Justice Department had investigated the newsgathering activities of a Fox News reporter as a potential crime in a probe of classified leaks. Critics said the government’s suggestion that James Rosen, Fox News’s chief Washington correspondent, was a “co-conspirator” for soliciting classified information threatened to criminalize press freedoms protected by the First Amendment. Others also suggested that the Justice Department’s claim in pursuing an alleged leak

Perhaps no other IRS official is more intimately associated with the tax agency´s growing scandal than Lois Lerner, director of the IRS’s Exempt Organizations Division. Since admitting the IRS harassed hundreds of conservative and Tea Party groups for over two years, Lerner has been criticized for a number of untruths—including the revelation that she apparently lied about planting a question at an American Bar Association conference where she first publicly acknowledged IRS misconduct. Still, Lerner has her defenders in the government and the media. Shortly after the scandal broke, The Daily Beast published an article headlined "IRS Scandal’s Central

WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Serviced scandal today spread further within the White House and closer to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement
