Allen West on Herman Cain: ‘Conservative Minorities Scare Liberals’

Since allegations of sexual harassement began to plague GOP presidential contender Herman Cain just weeks ago, many conservatives have noted what they see as a double standard being leveled against the former Godfather Pizza CEO — a double standard based on Cain’s race, combined with his conservative political leanings.
Sharing his thoughts on the kind of treatment conservative minorities receive from members of the media and political left, ConservativeNewMedia caught up with Congressman Allen West on Friday to ask him his views on the subject.
West said that he believes “conservative minorities scare liberals“ and that liberals believe conservative blacks are ”supposed be part of this 21st century plantation.”
Once a candidate is deemed a “threat,” West continued, “this is a bloodsport.”

If you want to accuse him of anything you could try to lay the mantle of neocon on his shoulders, but you have to remember he is a warfighter first (yeah I know hes not in the service anymore but he is still an F’n trooper at heart) and politician second. So his views aren’t typical of the DC crowd, he has his reasons for this, not that I agree with every one but I still know hes a hero!

Obviously…you did not view the link I had posted..as I am quite sure that most of the Cain Train has not…I do not understand how making good money can make a person insensitive to the needs of those less fortunate.. I have always been ultra conservative..but I am starting to wonder where these people’s hearts are.. I used to think that conservatives were righteous..but I am starting to doubt that as well.. Ron Paul and Peter Schiffe understand Austrian economics..and Paul does’t even want us taxed..Constitutionally it is not legal… Inflation is going through the roof..and it will not stop..

If conservatives aren’t allowed to dislike Obama because of his policies, and we‘re constantly told by leftists that we dislike him because we’re racists, then I declare that you also are not allowed to dislike Cain and West because of their policies, and that you dislike them because you’re a bigot and a racist. All you leftists need to do is make an assertion that someone is racist, and in your world, it’s true without any other thoughts or considerations no matter how much the conservative tries to defend himself. So yes, you and all your lefty friends are racist because I assert that it’s so, and that‘s all that’s needed to pass for “truth” in your dysfunctional world. You are what I say you are. That’s all the thought you guys ever put into anything. You are what I say you are, Wolf. Don’t bother trying to defend it. It doesn‘t matter whether or not it’s objectively true.

I wonder how that’s going to work out? Oh..and what about that 9% sales tax..that 9% flat tax and that 9% national tax? It may serve the rich right now..but I wonder how that will play out in the future?

Race is something that you cannot hide and they have seen the good and the bad. It hurts and angers them to see how people like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Maxine Waters and the like use the people in the black community for their own awful monetary ends. They make their livings making things up and suing people under the guise of “equality’. If the black community gets out from under their thumbs they would starve to death. And furthermore, Charles Rangel is now building a multi million dollar library to himself in Harlem, talk about sickening, why doesn’t he use that money to help the community if he cares so much? These two men have hit the nail right on the head. I know black people who laugh and say Obama is probably the worst president ever, but they will vote for him again because he is a “brother”. Why don’t they see Herman Cain or Allen West as a “brother”? They are not dumb people but are held in an invisible bondage that has been there all their lives, so what else would you call it? Smart black people that succeed are refered to as Uncle Toms and Sellouts by their own communities, they sure don’t need us to scold them for what they see as a truth.

Idiotic would be to think acting like racists makes one not racist! My position is based on honor and integrity. Acting as a “victim” shows weakness and that the attacks worked! It’s exactly how Democrats ACT!

You think any of the “black” communities are going to side with Herman or West when they cry “racism”? No way, they will laugh. It’s called jealousy, haters, insecurity!!! So instead of having two more “black” leaders screaming “racism” like Jesse, Maxine, Al and all the others why not be two MEN who doesn’t see race and tell others they can do it too regardless of your skin color. When attacked destroy the attack with truth and hope for the people.
By screaming racism like Al, Jesse and Maxine, Herman and West only confirm Al’s, Jesse’s, and Maxine’s position that racism is always against the “black” people and they cannot ever succeed….

To pretend that you can ignore it is foolishness, especially when those mindsets are being used to enslave others.

When Bashair attacks saying “he isn’t black enough”, destroy the attack and say, “racists see color first and this is what I as a HUMAN will do for the American people.” Dwelving into the mud of racism only makes both muddy racist pigs! Have a great night.

They are trying to gain voters, “black” ones and they will never succeed acting like Al, Maxine, or Jesse. They would succeed if they rise above the racism and speak of simply what every individual can do regardless of race. Take on the ideology, not take it up.

I have one race that concerned me that happened in Arizona with the recall of Russell Pearce replaced by what he says as another Republican who happen to be back by MoveOn.org. This is what we need to be concerned of in the coming elections people claiming to be Republicans and actually are Democrats. This is very scary thought moving forward and one in which I see happening throughout the country the Democrat machine is not going to lie down quietly they will use every trick to retain their power.

Posted on November 12, 2011 at 7:03am“Does the left attack Romney, Perry, or Paul because they are white?”
You are misssing the point entirely. The left attacks them and black conservatives because they are not liberals, but they are treated differently because of their race. White conservatives are accused of racism while black conservatives are accused of being sellouts. It is exactly the same mentality that white supremacists have who look at white liberals as “race traitors”. Recognizing this reality and calling the left on it is the only effective way to really take race out of the equation because you have to neutralize its political effectiveness.
The problem is that you are equating West‘s actions with Sharpton’s when they are very differenet. Sharpton STARTS with racial division and uses that as the template for all political and ideological analysis. He specifically claims that you CANNOT take race out of the equation. West does not. He does not bring race into the discussion unless it has been brought in from the left. Rarther than ignore the argument he argues against it. Where the left have distorted the definition of racism so that it serves their ideology West and other black conservatives are trying to show that true racism is the practice of locking people into racial categories. West is saying that racism is bad and that the real racism is coming from the left.
That’s not playing the race card. It’s countering it.

I should have said that white supremacists look at white NON-RACISTS as “race traitors”. I was using the white supremacists’ terminology, for they see all non-racists as liberals regardless of their actual political ideology. Race is the most important thing to them so all other issues are secondary.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg… and the reponse by OKIE that the Free Markets (the favored straw man of Paul’s supporters) would have somehow taken care of Civil Rights. Paul and his supporters often make such detours into the strange, the indefensible or theory based arguments. For example… the newsletters he put out in the 1980s and 1990s showed a penchant for crude bigotry against Blacks (“animals”) and Gays. Paul disavowed the offending passages, claiming he never saw or approved most of them… an implausible excuse for a publication carrying his name.
Paul and his supporters try to lull the Conservatives of the Republican Party (and anyone who will listen quite frankly) into his camp with great talk of Conservative economic strategies, the truth about commerce and trade, endless “we know-it-all better than you” regarding most anything economic rants and such, but then ride right off the rails in most all other areas that we hold near and dear to our hearts… Conservatively speaking.
Even though Paul senior and junior insist they’re not racist, no, no, and has never, ever thought about being a racist, no, no, and think racism is just awwwwful… in accordance with Paul’s revered libertarian code, property rights are as fundamental to the Constitution as the rights of an entire ethnic group. It’s all about the Free Market… and the selling of that straw…

Posted on November 12, 2011 at 10:29amFrom Webster’s: Racism, a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
I have seen no one here meeting that definition. We are not saying were are superior to ANY other races or that were are better than any other races and you have no idea what race I am. Quit assuming that just because someone talks about race there is something wrong with them.
As to the plantation expression. Let’s try something new here, it’s called common sense. Think about what the term “plantation” means to most Americans. It’s almost definitely immediately associated with slavery.
So why would the term be used in today’s political arena?
It‘s used because there is a worse form of slavery happening now that there was in past years because it’s more sneaky. The progressive ideals server to enslave huge swaths of our society by lulling them to sleep thinking they will be cared for rather than encouraging them to rise above their current situations and take care of themselves. They steal their freedoms merely to keep themselves in power.
The absolutely best thing that could happen to this Country would be to have another emancipation of the black and hispanic American vote away from the progressives so they could finally be free to grow and build their futures for themselves and not decided by the government how far or high they could climb.

Both have said they have been attacked because they are black, that is the “race” card, when in fact they would have been attacked if they were white like Perry, Paul, or Romney.
A sellout and racist are the same thing thru the eyes of racists. Sharpton calling West a sellout is Sharpton saying West is racist against his own race. When two people of the same race are screaming the other is racist, the message to rise above it is lost on those watching and focus is simply on race….The mentality is then always race….

What good comes from speaking of individual race verses speaking of the race American?
Progressives speak of race to divide and conquer. Speaking of individual race will never unite. Being and speaking colorblind will unite as just laws see no race and is just to all.
Today’s society is nothing like a plantation. On a plantation you had no choice. Today’s society you do. They are nothing alike at all. Why don’t all conservatives speak of this plantation and not just these two?
This “sneakiness” you speak of is blatantly obvious, no one is trying to hide it. Progressive push all races to get on the Government dole and yield rights of the individual to nanny Government. This progressive agenda will never be defeated as long as race is used to divide. The way to defeat it is to unite all races against it under the power of the individual.
The best thing that could happen is for all Americans to believe in the individual. “Blacks” and “Hispanics” are not the only ones running to the progressive agenda. All are because the race division blames someone else for their problems instead of saying I have the choice to determine my own destiny. Progressives want to be the redeemer.

That’s what they ARE doing. Rising above it does not mean ignoring the racist tactics of your foes, especially if you seek to liberate others from such racist thinking. Preaching only what you believe without also critiquing falsehoods has never been a wise policy. You have to address the lies if you want the Truth to be understood.
“These two would shine if they did that.” They already are shining.
“Both have said they have been attacked because they are black, that is the “race” card, when in fact they would have been attacked if they were white like Perry, Paul, or Romney.”
The “race card” is claiming racism regardless of evidence, merely because the accused is white and the accusor is black. The race card is built upon the presumption that whites are naturally racists, and that conservatism is naturally racist and that therefore no good black would be conservative. You are failing to acknowledge the difference in the way that Cain and West are attacked and the way that white conservatives are. The attacks they suffer is far more viscious and personal because they are a greater threat. There is nothing wrong with them openly acknowledging that. You seem to want them to be silent about it. That policy never works.

Cain and West would both be attacked whether white or black just as Al and Jesse would both be attacked whether white or black. By saying “I‘m being attacked because I’m black” is yielding to the idea everyone is against a person because of skin color. That is the whole agenda of racist progressives, get the herd to divide by planting the seed everyone is against them because of race.
You address the lies by speaking truth and saying racists see color, I do not and this is what I’ll do for the American people. That is rising above it not lowering yourself to it. That is standing in truth and addressing the racist (calls them out) and then rise above it by speaking as an American and not a defensive black/white man on who’s blacker/whiter.

Posted on November 12, 2011 at 2:37amA$$ hole to A$$ hole, You may have studied. But what you have learned is completely inadequate. It is quite clear you do not work in a high stress job where results are more important than efforts.
What you don’t understand, and probably never will, is that the 9-9-9 plan helps those making 70,000+ per year immediately. Are you not in that category?
More importantly, it helps businesses! And this is key as it helps everyone. It cannot be repeated enough. To help business is to hire people. Cain’s plan therefore creates more jobs and more contributing to the tax base.
It is American as apple pie to think that if I strive hard that someday I can become rich. The democrat plan is against this. But to encourage people to make more money by keeping what they make (i.e. a flat tax of some percentage) is both fair and motivates people to make more, thus creating job opportunities.. This is very good for the economy.
This results in a demand for employees. Then businesses compete for employees and wages increase and the unemployment rate decreases. Why this is not understood by the educated elite is mind boggling.
So it looks like you need to study some more. I would recommend to you that the best course of study is to start your own business. Then you will quickly learn the principles that drive our economy to success or failure. But I gather you are an academic and would never submit yourself to such a trivial pursuit.
