Political Tricks On Black People

The most utilized political tricks played on Black voters and Black citizens are lies and false promises.
If you don't know, elected officials are friends with each other. Democrats and Republicans love each other, defend each other, protect each other and support each other more than they support you.
Before I go too far, African Americans must go to the polls and cast their ballots! Every citizen has a right to vote and every Black citizen has a history filled with voter suppression, voter denial, and voter danger. Too many of our ancestors were lynched and killed for trying to exercise their rights to vote.
Now, back to the trickeration!
At any election time, all candidates from nearly all political parties will profess to be your friend, your advocate, your helper, your supporter, your confidant, your political comrade, and so forth.
A rudimentary look at political history will show political destiny swapping. Democrats and Republicans have both been "good" at some time, and terrible at another time.
Our political conditions have always been tied to money. In, and after, slavery days Democratic southern segregationists had money and power generated by slave labor.
Republicans wanted Black votes and they got Black votes when President Lincoln did some emancipation stuff. In fact, your grand parents and great grand parents (depending on you age) were registered Republicans.
Eisenhower's election to the presidency was fueled by Black voter support.
When Kennedy ran for the office, Blacks went Democratic and have stayed there since that time.
Today, the trickeration, the bamboozle, and the draining of Black political power is as clear as day.
Money is again the root of political evils and political exploitation.
Both major political parties, and most candidates, love to recieve monetary contributions from Black individuals and Black businesses.
The only Blacks who can participate in political purchasing transactions are the Black men and women who are willing to be controlled.
"Controlled", in politics means, are you a person that will lie when you are asked, or told, to lie?
Familiar lies in politics are, the elected official "is not in", "She's working on it", "I'll support your bill", "We currently don't have a position available", etc.
The University of Georgia and Georgia Tech get huge appropriations from federal and state government. Georgia State University is just as big but gets less money because it is predominately Black.
Let me give you another example of Blacks in politics. If a piece of legislation is proposed that will impact Israel, or Jews, every Jewish elected official rise up to speak about it. Same thing happens when Cuba is brought up. Cuban Americans will jump up to comment. (If you don't know, many Cuban elected officials are Jewish).
If aide is cut off from Africa, or if Black schools, curriculums, and student aide is cut from Black schools, you might hear a wimper, but never a roar from elected folk you voted for, or if there is a strong Black reaction to legislation, the imperialist press won't report it.
Whites that get multi-million dollars every election year regardless of whether they won or lost in the previous election will never be fired or replaced.
No Black man or women will ever get a contract to produce and place political media. No Black person will ever be hired to inspire and motivate all voters. That won't happen in a Netflix movie!
Our strength is our unity. Our political power is out cooperation and collaboration.
I promise you, if Black "leaders" could stop saying "Yassa Boss", stop the political buck dancing, and stop misleading the political Black masses with talking points, false narratives and illusions, we might be able to progress.
American white voters are divided. If Blacks vote, Democrats win. When Blacks don't vote, Republicans will cook Democrats like a Thanksgiving turkey!
Are you following me? The gerrymandering going on is merely taking some, or all Black voters, out of Democratic districts. Without Black voter support, most Democrats couldn't win a rat race!
This year, it is crucial for Democrats to win on all levels, national, state, and local.
A 30% turnout of Black voters in contested races and districts just won't do in 2026 elections.
Example, an important Senate race will take place in Georgia. Democrats are seeking to get several Blacks to run for statewide positions, but Black candidates will not get equal or similar funding support by the party that Blacks love. The Democratic Senator in Congress needs expert help that Bubba and Becky cannot give him.
If the Trump opposition party refuses to expand their group of consultants to hire people who can motivate, inspire, and turn out the Democratic base, the Trump wannabe dictatorship will slither trough the ballroom, through the arch, and down to the reflecting pool.
Kamala is acting like she may run for President again. If she doesn't hire a diverse group of political experts, I wish her luck!
Her media messages and productions can be improved, her GOTV and registration efforts are diminished by awful timing and untrained volunteers.
She must have someone Black on her campaign team if she runs again, who does not fear saying, "I disagree!" to poor performing highly paid consultants.
Stop the political tricks and give Blacks a chance to help you. Political parties have nothing to lose.
The MOST POPULAR trick orchestrated by million dollar-political strategists is finding as many underqualified, underfinanced, and unpopular, or unknown, Black candidates, knowing most will lose just because the white consultants imagine, "You don't have to spend money to get Blacks to vote, just put a Negro on the ballot and the Jigaboos will go and vote even when NO CANDIDATE has proposals for Black affordable housing,Black employment opportunities, Black business opportunities, Black health, Black education, Black voting rights, Black judicial rights, and more.
How dare they?
I am trying to post as much TRUTH as possible. I need a break or at least a pause. Sometime soon, I'll take a break from social media but the TGR platform will be up and running.
As always, thank you for your interest in truth!
