Obama Better Put A Muzzle On Conyers
Representative John Conyers (D-MI) is still talking about reparations for black people. The archaic legislator was in North Carolina campaigning for Barack Obama when he began talking about his favorite legislative project. If Conyers had his way, a commission would be set up to discuss the issue of reparations for descendants of slaves. It should be noted that Obama has not publicly endorsed this legislation. There is no way Obama would endorse legislation dealing with the issue of reparations while he is running for President. He already has enough problems attracting certain groups of white voters as documented in this article written for The New Republic.
I have said it before and I will say it again, black people should forget about reparations. If reparations were approved, how would you know who to give the money too? What kind of documentation would people need? Does Conyers and his supporters realize how many people would be "trying" to pass for black so they could get paid? If Conyers really wants to do something that will benefit people and stimulate the economy at the same time, he should pass legislation that would erase everybody's student loan debt up to $100,000. This action would help a lot of people - black, white, asian, etc.
Remember - erase my student loan debt. That is all the reparations I need.
