Before you take this as an endorsement of Rand Paul, hear me out. Paul has been the only person in Congress to speak about problems in the African-American community. He has been talking about unfair treatment of blacks in the court system for awhile. He has campaigned across many different cities to empty rooms because everyone automatically writes him off.
With the Ferguson situation, he has been the most vocal and to the point. Of course he blends it in with his whole demilitarization argument which does also have merit. Some people are saying he is just pandering to the black cause for votes. I say so what. A politician's goal is to get votes in order to stay in office.
What has Hillary Clinton said about Ferguson or blacks in the court system? What has Elizabeth Warren or any other potential candidate said or done? Just because they're democrats they have our best interest? It's hard to get a democract to even speak the word African-American without their fear of alienating other minorities.
Hillary Clinton has been taking cheap shots at Obama for years. Recently it was about his foreign policy and in the 2008 primary she was discrediting MLK. She mentioned it was LBJ that passed the Civil Rights Act and not MLK. Well no shyt LBJ was President and MLK wasn't. However it was our lobbying efforts that made it a reality.
The LGBT, Oil, Insurance, Finance, and more all have their lobby teams together getting stuff passed. You think any of this is an accident or a game? The smartest industries lobby both sides and could care less who the candidate or political party he/she belongs to. All the marching in the world isn't going to get anything done without telling these elected officials what we want or be prepared to lose our vote.
