Will Oprah & President Obama Help Vera Richardson Achieve her Divine Purpose?








Like Oprah I believe that nothing in this world happens by chance. I believe Oprah’s endorsement of then Senator Obama led directly to this nation electing its FIRST African-American President. I also believe that fact we share several experiences didn't happen by chance. Those experiences includes being born poor in the South to unwed mothers under the same sign Aquarius in 1954 and having a life changing event at the age of fourteen.

 I believe that my divine purpose will be achieved during Obama’s presidency. My divine purpose of is to shed light on employment discrimination and for that LIGHT to reveal that Title VII (employment discrimination) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 needs to be amended again. 

President Obama should address employment discrimination once again because it is the RIGHT thing to do. Title VII of the Civil Right Act of 1964 needs to be amended again  In 2009 President Obama amended Title VII (Employment Discrimination) of the Civil Right Act of 1964 when he signed his first bill the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act. 


President Obama amending the Act again will make America a more just place for all Americans. Employment discrimination is a major reason that African-American unemployment rates is double that of the  national average unemployment rate of Whites in some parts of America. It is also a reason that many African-American teenagers are unemployed and many African-American adults are either unemployed or underemployed.

Will Oprah and President Obama read my book Screwed by Former Governor...Eliot Spitzer ? Will they read and discuss all of the direct evidence in it that supports the need to protect one of Martin Luther King Jr's greatest achievement the Civil Rights Act of 1964? 

Will an African-American President Obama rise to the occasion like President Johnson and lead America to GREATNESS? I believe with all of my heart that he will. I believe it because nothing is too hard for man to accomplish with the help of God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost.

Click link to read two perjured declaration Spitzer filed to deny me a jury trial Screwed by Former Governor and Attorney General Eliot Spitzer  After you read the preview consider download the $2.99 e-book and have fact based employment discrimination conversation on Social media.  All of the events included in my book are true therefore, I believe that this book can change hearts and minds of those who believe that racism is bad or doesn't exist.


If you are African-American or a member of any minority group please help change America and lead it to be a more just nation.  If you are in a position to help promote this book and/or make present it to the nation and the world please DO... We are the CHANGE that we voted for in 2008 and 2012.  Help President Obama and God change America FOREVER.

African-Americans we CAN Change America By SAVING Ourselves from RACISM!


                         

The highly qualified Harris County African-Americans pictured above were defeated as judiciary candidates on November 4, 2014. Harris County has more registered Democrats than Republicans and Independents combined but they didn't vote.

I believe that during the November 4, 2014, mid-term elections African-Americans behaved like the children of Israel after they were delivered from slavery. Exodus 14:12 of King James Version of the Bible: “Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt; saying Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.”

After witnessing all of the January 20, 2009, conspired opposition to President Obama by the Republican Party, many minorities felt exhausted from defending President Obama. Like President Obama they didn't know about the secret 2009 pledge to vote NO to EVERY agenda item of the first African-American president. We couldn't understand him using most of his first term trying to get Republicans to support and vote for "Obamacare."

Hispanic Americans got angry and didn't vote in record numbers needed to retain the Senate and take back the House. Their  reason for not turning out to vote  many didn't understand the necessary politics of waiting until after the midterms to take Executive Action on Immigration Reform.

President Obama said that change wouldn't come easy in this country and the November 2, 2010, and November 4, 2014, midterms proved that fact. President Obama hasn't gotten weary and/or given up and we can’t get weary and give up either.

Murder victims Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown, Eric Gardner, African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, the poor, under educated, and women need President Obama and educated and/or successful African-Americans to continue fighting for his visions of Justice and Equality for all Americans.

We must trust God and know that just like He delivered the children of Israel He will protect and deliver us too. We must vote in every election as if it’s a presidential election. More importantly, we MUST have the race/racism conversation that President Obama requested after the Ferguson verdict.

For less than a Burger King Whopper or a Big Mac you can DOWNLOAD $2.99 book  "Screwed by Former Governor and Attorney General Eliot Spitzer." Read the book and have a fact-based race conversation around the world, on social media, radio, and television.

After reading the book please render the jury verdict that the United States Supreme Court denied me on November 4, 2002. After you render your verdict respectfully request that President Obama protect Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, by amending it with an Executive Order.


On November 4, 2008, Senator Barack Obama was elected as this nation first African-American president. On January 29, 2009, President Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act.  This was the first act signed into law by President Obama.

According to the New York Times: “In signing the bill, Mr. Obama said that it sends the message "that there are no second class citizens in our workplaces, and that it's not just unfair and illegal, it's bad for business to pay someone less because of their gender or their age or their race or their ethnicity, religion or disability."

I am an African-American female victim of employment discrimination who likes Lilly Ledbetter was denied justice by the Supreme Court of the United States for employment discrimination.  I hope and pray that President Obama doesn’t let politics prevent him from using my employment discrimination case to address and amend Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, because my experience occurred in the State of New York and involves Democrats Eliot Spitzer and Governor Andrew Cuomo.

The salutary purpose of summary judgment and the rights of all Americans to fair and equal justice can both be accomplished with a well written and defined amendment to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Amending the Civil Rights Act again would prevent one judge from having the absolute power to grant summary judgment motions that dismiss Title VII cases. Amending the Act again will also make the guarantees of both the 13th and 14th amendments of the United States Constitution and the protections under Title VII of the Civil Right Act of 1964 a living reality for all Americans. All Americans are entitled to due process and equal protection under the law.

Black Lives Matters: Call Senator Reid 202-224-3542 to Confirm ALL Pres Obama Judges








          Thank you Senator Reid for being a friend to African-Americans and President Obama


The grand juries decisions not to indicted police officers in Ferguson, MO and NYC in the deaths of Mike Brown and Eric Gardner highlights the need for a fair judiciary. African-Americans and all people who believe that Black lives matters please use this movement to CHANGE the make up of the federal courts.

According to a USA Today November 1, 2013, article "Lining the federal bench with judges who enjoy lifetime tenure is one of the most significant perks of the presidency. Two terms presidents generally appoint nearly 40% or 350 of the 874 federal judges. That's a game changing number. Imagine the next Democratic president elected in 2016 appointing more federal judges.

We can't change the hearts and minds of RACIST GOP leaders who on January 20, 2009, the night Senator Obama became president met and plotted against him and America. Neither can we change the minds of Republicans in the House and Senate who are determined to denied President Obama a successful president or his right to appoint qualified judicial nominees.

Please call Reid at  202-224-3542. Tell him that you are calling to request that he bring as many of President Obama nominated judiciary candidates to the floor for a simple majority vote of 51 senators. Reid should not let the Republicans continue abuse of the "Blue Slip" courtesy deny the Senate from confirming federal judges that will have LIFETIME appointments.

After you call please post that fact to CNN-I-Reports, social media, Facebook, Twitter, blogs etc. Use the hashtag #ConfirmPresidentObamaJudges

Thanks in advance

BLACK PEOPLE STOP DOING STUPID SH-T: Don't Protest at NIGHT PERIOD!



Please don't do stupid s__t like marching at night. Please stay off the street at night.  Don't give Coburn and Republican Party what what they want. They may start the violence and say African-Americans started it. 


Blacks shouldn't march or protest at night. Republican Senator Coburn who met with his party on 1/20/09 (night Barack Obama took oath) and conspired to obstruct his presidency wants anarchy and violence. On November 20, 2014, Coburn who is leaving the Senate because his cancer has returned "predicted" call for violence all over this nation. In his interview with USA today he referenced Ferguson just like he did on Morning Joe Show


We can't win nor do we want a race war. Our lives are in our hands and Jesus hands. Listen to this passionate insight about what is happening in Ferguson and pray. Please pray for our nation and specific for Jesus to protect President Obama from all harm domestic and foreign. 

Chronicles 2 7:14 “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (KJV)



Do you believe the nation will be shocked and respond to the violence the same way they did during Jim Crow and the Civil Rights movement? The refusal of all the major networks ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX to allow President Obama 15 or 20 minutes of air time to tell nation details of his Immigration Reform policy guarantees that history will not repeat itself. Only negative images or videos that support the narratives that BLACK people are responsible for the violence, unlawfulness, and riots will be featured and discussed by the media.



I don’t want to preach but many of you who are matching and protesting failed to either register to vote or didn’t vote in 2010 and again in 2014. Not voting on November 6, 2014, and/or like some activist in Houston, TX telling Blacks not to vote was a critical mistake.

I believe that many eligible Hispanic voters didn't register because of fear of exposing their mixed family members. Now that Barack Obama has used Executive Orders that should relieve some of those fears Texas Democratic Party should start massive end of year drive to register those potential voters. I also believe that other states should do the same thing.

Proactive actions we can take to honor Mike Brown and deny the Republicans the White House in 2016 includes but aren't limited to: 1: Getting eligible Hispanic voters registered during daylight hours in cities across this nation.  2. Raising money and establishing methods to identify and get state issued voter identification cards for those who need them.
Volunteering at your local county and state Democratic Party headquarters today. Use your energy to help people like these pictured Harris County democratic female judiciary candidates. All of them lost on November 6, 2014, but you can help them become judges in future elections. 

Don't give up and don't lose HOPE. JESUS gave us President Obama and Eric Holder to bring equality and justice to all Americans including Mike Brown. It will be hard to change America to a more just nation. Change will happen if Blacks realize that we are in the fight for our lives and our children's lives. Blacks must make better decisions and matching and/or protesting at NIGHT in any city in America is STUPID!

Rally of Striking Houston Janitors in 100 Degree Temperature for $10.00 Hour Pay


Updated 8/14/2014 President Obama needs Hispanic and African Americans to unite and vote on 11/4/2014 like most of us did 11/6/2012.  If we do we will not only save his legacy 2009-2015 but we will save ourselves and our children.  Immigration Reform, equality, jobs, education, Supreme Court appointments, a future Hispanic American being elected as President all hang in the balance. We can have it all if we volunteer, GOTV, Vote, and donate for the Democratic Party.



Houston janitors are striking to increase their pay from a top wage of $8.35 per hour to $10.00 per hour. On August 1, 2012, my life’s path crossed the lives of these hard working men and women. Prior to my arrival and at a different location several of the people participating in the match and rally were arrested during the event. Therefore I attended the rally and videotaped part of it to give their cause and poor people a voice. My ongoing commentary in the video includes encouraging and discussing the importance of voting for Democratic candidates.
The fact that the janitors clean the offices of corporations and banks like Shell Oil, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan had to strike for $10.00 a hour pay is unacceptable to me.  Despite record profits and inflated CEO pay, janitors who clean Houston's office buildings are paid less than $9,000 a year—less than half the poverty level.
PR Newswire (http://s.tt/1hyRp
)
The Houston janitors are members of Service Employees International Union “SEIU.” The event, which occurred when the temperature was 100 degrees, included members of the SEIU from across the nation to show their support of the Houston janitors who engaged in one day strikes this year before going on strike the night of July 10, 2012.

According to one of the speakers at the rally SEIU union will be sit down at the bargaining table with the Area Contractors Association on August 2, 2012.
