Memo To Romney

June 29, 2012

                       

Raynard Jackson

 

Now that Romney is the defacto nominee for the Republican Party, I have been reflecting on the state of the presidential race as it enters the final stretch.  As a political strategist, I understand the necessity to run to the right during the Republican primary and then migrate to the center during the general election.

 

It is common knowledge that Romney has no intention of focusing on the Black vote during the general election.  From a raw po

Actually, that should really be pretty easy to do since there aren't that many of us who watch CNN on the reg anyway.  And I suppose that's what they're counting on.  The fact that we really don't subscribe to their brand of reporting. 

But we need to send a message. Roland Martin was treated unfairly, stupidly and with prejudice by CNN. As an associate and friend of mine used to say that CNN stood for "the continuously negative news."   And I totally concur.  But they've go

King Solomon, of the Bible fame, states in Proverbs 4:7, “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting, get understanding.”

 

I assume that it’s still legal in the U.S. to mention or quote from the Bible?  I am not too sure; this can cause me to be accused of being insensitive to other religions—but, I digress.

 

As I reflect upon the current state of affairs in the world, I am seeking to get some understanding of a few things.
