LOL Democrat James Clyburn still blames Jill Stein and Gary Johnson for Hillary's loss, not the blacks who stayed home in Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philadelphia

Hillary Superpredators Clinton remains the elephant in the room of the Congressional Black Caucasians. And Hillary The Anointed And I Don't Need To Campaign in Wisconsin Clinton shall not be mentioned either.

From the story here:

Jill Stein and Gary Johnson ran third-party campaigns in 2016 that arguably siphoned off enough votes to cost Hillary Clinton the states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania — and with them the presidency. I don’t remember all that they promised, but I know what they helped deliver: the disastrous presidency of Donald Trump. 

Clyburn predictably also blames Ralph Nader's 97k votes in Florida for Bush's victory in 2000. He doesn't want to talk about the 180k spoiled ballots in Florida, 54% of which were cast by black folks.

A man who thinks the mere words of another man are all it takes to make him free is still a slave

Juneteenth, which falls on June 19, marks the date that the last enslaved African Americans were granted their freedom. On that day in 1865, Union soldiers led by Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in the coastal city of Galveston, Texas, to deliver General Order No. 3, officially ending slavery in the state.

The final act of liberation came months after the Confederate Army’s surrender ended the Civil War, and more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.

Lincoln was assassinated on April 15, 1865, two months before his proclamation made it to Texas. ...

“I often equate Juneteenth with our country’s inability to communicate,” said House Majority Whip James Clyburn, D-S.C., a member of the Congressional Black Caucus. “The failure to communicate kept them in slavery for another two and half years.”
