Al Sharpton's Chicago Town Hall Erupts into Revolt Against Machine Politics

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/12/21/Al-Sharpton-s-Chicago-Town-Hall-Erupts-into-Revolt-against-Machine-Politics

The meeting didn't turn out as they expected. I was shocked when I read the following paragraphs:

Quote
“The manner in which we have been voting needs to change,” Wendy Pearson, an activist against Chicago school closings, told the room. “I’m here to say to you that we have been trained to vote in a specific manner… we need to start looking at the manner in which our elected officials have been voting… if they have not voted in a manner that is beneficial to you, yours, and your community, then you need to start voting them out.”

McKinley told the room, “Stop blaming just anybody for the violence in the city of Chicago. Blame the right people, not just white people, but the right people. Because it’s not just white folks a part of this, but it is on the fifth floor. The fifth floor took your schools, the fifth floor just took your jobs that he said that he gave to the ex-offender… and every single alderman was a part of this criminal process.”

McKinley called on President Obama to help the grassroots by discontinuing aid and government grants that go through Chicago’s political machine to “name-brand-blue-ribbon-negro-organizations” such as the NAACP and Urban League. McKinley told Breitbart News those groups “are poverty pimps, and are part of the problem and not the solution.”


Is it possible people are waking up to the truth the democrats have been purposely keeping poor people down to up their power?

I could be wrong, but I believe "fifth floor" refers to the mayor's office on fifth floor of city hall in Chicago.

I just like they way she is sounding like a conservative when she talked. They have been voting for their own destruction for so long, now some are finally seeing the light.

Hopefully she means the Black Democrats.  But I guess that makes me racist.

Nope. The poor are brainwashed by legions of good union school teachers. A few might see, but when the smiling democrat passes a few measly dollars, loyalty will again be assured.

The inner cities are lost.
