Random thoughts of a free Black mind, v. 156

Filed under COMMENTARIES

Presidential debate No. 1 – I’m watching with one eye as I’m putting 8-year-old Charles III to bed, and texting some 50-year-old frat brothers and classmates. Initial impression: Mitt Romney tries to talk over moderator Jim Lehrer, who occasionally loses control like an NFL replacement ref. Bro. Prez doesn’t have high energy when he’s not in front of a live crowd. He’s like a dull college professor tonight; we’ll see how it’s all spun and what the polls say.

Question: Does a tie go the ‘champ’ if you are the first Black prez? Or is there a different standard there, too? Does Bro. Prez have to knock Mitt Romney out and oratorically kick the bejesus out of him, or just answer the questions reasonably to be considered the winner? Just asking…

You can go online right now and read analysis publish reviews online. More in the ‘hard copy’ of the Florida Courier next week.

GOP and voter fraud – BWAWAHH HAA HAA HAA! That’s my ironic laugh that the Republican Party of Florida has pulled out its ‘voter fraud victim’ card. Wouldn’t it be something if Rick Scott’s Florida Department of Law Enforcement – which seems to have spent more time looking under FAMU’s skirts than anything else – actually found evidence of GOP voter fraud? What if the first person criminally prosecuted under Florida’s GOP-initiated ‘voter protection’ law is a longtime, nationally known GOP operative? BWAWAHH HAA HAA HAA!

Want to know what really happened? Think “Mission Impossible.” Remember, “If you are caught or killed, the secretary  (the GOP) will disavow any knowledge of your actions. Good luck, Jim!”  As long as dude didn’t get caught, they paid him his millions, and it was all good.

Nielsen report – Last week, I promised I’d get you a list of who’s a corporate friend of Black America and whom we are allowing to pimp us, based on the Nielsen demographic research about Black America’s consumer preferences. I’ll have that in next week, “fa sho.”
