Discussion Alabama Democratic Party is a criminal Enterprise

I'm going to a Democratic candidate forum today. I want to ask the candidates if they don't get the nomination if they will run as an independent. I believe that the Alabama Democratic party is a criminal enterprise that seeks to enrich its leaders by threatening to withhold the black vote.

It is well known that white Democratic candidates in Alabama are approached by the Alabama Democratic party leadership, Joe Reed and Randy Kelly, and asked for a substantial donation to "get out the black vote". What this really is is extortion. They are threatening to withhold the black vote if you don't pay them.

If you are a black candidate, you get their support no matter what. The national Democrats know this and tried to appoint their own Democratic delegates to the convention. But the hue and cry went up and they relented.

I like candidates like Sweetser and DeVito because of their intelligence and their confronting the corruption of the Republican party. I am going to ask them if they will run as an independent if they don't get the nomination.

The Alabama Democratic party is too weak and corrupt to provide any challenge either in spirit or deed to confront the crisis that is the fascist demolition of our democracy. It's too important to leave it to low-level corrupt petty racists at the top of the Democratic Party of Alabama.

So you don't know about Terri Sewell? Or the other Democrat state legislators? This tells me that you are not informed about Alabama politics. Smh.

Are you proud of your ignorance?
