Romney is WRONG: 2012 Poor Black People Working for Slave Wages in Houston


According to a pool report from Romney’s Hamilton, Montana fundraiser  held on July 11, 2012, Romney told donors: “if they (Obamacare supporters) want more stuff from government tell them to go vote for the other guy – more free stuff.”  Since making that statement Romney’s campaign strategy includes FALSE ATTACK campaign ads approved by Romney that accuses President Obama of removing WORK from welfare reform laws. In a post titled ” Romney's Race-Baiting Welfare Ads” on Huffington Post writer Mark Hannah stated that he believes the strategy appears to be racially motivated. I agree with Hannah.
Romney is wrong for using the false race baiting welfare ads and in his implication that “Obamacare” supporters want more free stuff from the government. As evident from this blog and video made with pictures taken in August 2012, poor people living in Houston, Texas are reporting for work at a day labor office between 5:30 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. They work until 12:00 p.m. or until the assignment is completed for an average net pay of 17 or 18 dollars.
The poor not only want to work but ARE working in Houston, Texas for wages that COULD be classified as violating the requirements of minimum wages laws and/or “SLAVE LABOR.” Romney isn’t the SOLUTION for the American economy. I believe that Romney and anyone who would take advantage of poor people, like the ones featured in this video, are part of the PROBLEM.

Vice President Biden APOLOGIZE!





Vice President Joe Biden should apologize immediately for his "back in chains" remark, made during a campaign event in Danville, Virginia on August 14, 2012 Based on this nation’s racial past, especially in Virginia, there is no defense of Biden’s comment other than a sincere apology. His apology should include a statement that he misspoke and that his comment doesn’t reflect the view(s) and/or beliefs of President Obama.
This story should have ended yesterday August 14, 2012. We know that there is a double standard on race issues in this country. President Obama’s brilliant campaign team has launched a winning offensive campaignThis election is too important for this nation and the world to let a slip of the tongue or a mistake derailed President Obama’s chances for reelection. DOES the Democratic Party want to win the election on November 6, 2012, or win this unnecessary BIDEN'S latest news making GAFFE.
APOLOGIZE NOW and continue to march this election and this nation FORWARD!

Congressman Paul Ryan: Mitt Romney’s Poor Vice Presidential Selection


Neither Romney nor Paul Ryan have any experience or expertise in foreign affairs and neither are capable of responding to a 3:00 AM call from anywhere around the world. The above mentioned fact is an example of Romney’s desperation and inability to make sound decisions were exhibited when he selected his Vice Presidential candidate Congressman Ryan Paul. Just like John McCain in 2008 Romney first presidential decision is inexcusable and poor. The future of America and the world depends on the leader of the free world being able to lead, make sound decision, and respond to emergencies and crisis around the world.  Romney is not that guy and will be defeated on November 6, 2012.

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.

My Grandson Jeremiah’s Pre-exiting Heart Condition Is Covered Under Obamacare



President Obama's determination to keep his 2008 campaign pledge to reform health care in this nation resulted in him signing the Affordable Health Care Act "Obamacare" on March 23, 2010. The hard three year fight led by President Obama ended with the Supreme Court’s decision that upheld the constitutionality of The Affordable Health Care Act.

 The “Obamacare” victory is important to the 30 million uninsured Americans who will now have the opportunity to have health care coverage. It is also a personal victory for me and families like mine that have a family member with a pre-existing condition. My grandson Jeremiah who has a pre-existing heart condition can’t be denied health care coverage. This is a big f---- deal for me because Jeremiah, who is 9 years old, will need his fourth open heart surgery at age 12 or 13 years old. Additionally, insurance companies can't deny him a health care policy as an adult.

Why is Mayor Bloomberg Determination to Force President Obama into Gun Control Debate?




Dear Mayor Bloomberg: What is your political motivation and aspirations that require you to force President Obama to engage in a gun control debate now?  Who are you supporting and/or voting for on November 6, 2012?  Why are you inserting yourself on the national stage at this time?
On the Morning Joe Show on July 23, 2012, you stated your determination to continue to require that gun control become an issue before the presidential election. You stated that approximately 48,000 Americans will lose their lives due to illegal gun violence during the next presidential term.  Have you consider the 30 million Americans that Romney and his party have pledged to deny health care insurance by repealing Obamacare?  Have you considered the millions of Americans like my grandson Jeremiah, who has a pre-existing heart condition, not being able to purchase a health care policy during their lifetime?  Every life is important in America but the 48,000 lives that you used to justify your action(s) pales in comparison to the number of Americans who could die during the next four years if President Obama is defeat and/or the Affordable Health Care Act is repealed

Is Judge Lester’s Decision to Grant Bail to Zimmerman Again Racially Motivated?



Why would Judge Lester grant bail to Zimmerman again on July 5, 2012, after his own court order supports denying that action? In his ruling Lester wrote about the first bond hearing and noted an undisclosed second passport kept in Zimmerman's safe deposit box. In Judge Lester's order he noted that George possibly committed third degree perjury but still granted bail. 

I believe that Judge Lester’s decision to grant bail to George Zimmerman a second time is an abuse of judiciary discretion and is political and/or racially motivated.
George is charged with second degree murder and is on video tape lying to investigators at the complex where he murder Trayvon. Zimmerman lies several times when he stated that the 911 dispatched asked him several times to give an address where they could find the person George labeled as suspicious and looking like he was up to no good.

We know that Geoge killed Trayvon because he admitted that fact.  We know that George is a liar who has knowledge of Criminal Justice and highly probality that he will be found guilty of murder and/or violating Trayvon Martin's civil rights.  He also has the financial means and a family member mother
I believe that Judge Lester like the Sanford Police Department mishandled the Trayvon Martin murder case. Judge Lester’s discussion that downplayed Zimmerman’s two prior criminal encounters with the law,  granting bail at $100,000 from the bench immediately after the first bail hearing and his latest decision to grant bail again in this case supports my belief. Lester should recuse himself from this case and/or the United States Justice Department should charge Zimmerman if there is evidence to support a conviction that Zimmerman violated Trayvon Martin’s civil rights.
