Col. West Asks Blacks To Leave The Plantations

I freed a thousand slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves.
-Harriet Tubman

Finally, there is a contemporary Black leader willing to tell the truth to lead Blacks out of poverty and to break the stranglehold of the Democrat virtual plantation system. Colonel West is offering an alternative to the Social Welfare of Liberalism and Progressive Socialism; just as Harriet Tubman, an escaped slave who led countless slaves to freedom from the plantations by way of the underground railroad, Colonel West is offering to lead the modern day virtual slave of the Democrat Party to freedom and prosperity.

Colonel West complains that congressional Black leaders are nothing more than overseers on the Democrat plantation. In a manner of speaking, our congressional Black leaders are performing the role of the overseer on the plantation. They enjoy a superior standard of living by making their own people perform in a subservient manner by voting Democrat with ear election and accepting their roles as wards of the Democrat plantation. They are not expected to question their role as victim or expect to rise above a certain level of poverty; they are told to manipulate the system rather than relying on their talents and initiatives, trust in Liberal compassion and the Democrat plantation will take care of their every need.

Colonel West is asking Blacks to abandon this fantasy and to realize they can rely on their own abilities.

Colonel West is not running for the Presidency; however, he will hopefully be considered as a running mate of the GOP candidate. He is a man of valor and integrity. He is an inspiration to all Americans.

Epilogue: Before people of color condemn me for writing on the Black dilemma, I ask them to consider this bit of history. On several occasions, I sat as a small boy and listened to my grandmother tell me of a pre Civil War incident that happened on a former family farm in Southern Kentucky. The farm was a way station or safe house in the Underground Railroad. One night, while harboring a group of escaped slaves, a group of murderers came with axes and killed the members of my grandmother’s family and the escaped slaves with axes. My grandmother told me this story in hushed tones with fear in her voice as if those cold blooded killers were still out for revenge and mayhem as if they were listening by the windows.

When a trusted member of the family tells you such a horrific story and still displays fear a hundred years later, it has quite an effect on a young lad.

Slavery had its effect on my family and I suppose it is the reason for the Northern migration from the idyllic valleys of Kentucky. She was born 30 years after the end of the Civil War, but I imagine the family members that survived told her the story with the same hushed tones tinged with paranoia that she used to tell me the story.

I was a teenager before I saw my first Black person, but when I saw that nameless person, I thought back to that bloody night in Kentucky, to the other nameless Blacks, who were chopped to pieces, along with members of my family, with axes because of this peculiar institution we call slavery.

It is long past time to end slavery and to topple those who benefit from the tradition. The slave masters of the Democrat Party are bad enough, but the Black overseers of the system are the most despicable. Yes, I do have skin in the game; my relatives paid a price for slavery many years ago.
