Three of the biggest killers of blacks are abortion, AIDS and black-on-black homicide. Abortionkills more black Americans than the next Seven Leading Causes of Death combined. Abortion kills 1,500 black babies a day. What is the NAACP’s stance on abortion? They’re for it and the political party that makes money off killing unborn black babies.
Before the legalization of abortion, whites made up the bulk of its victims. Since the legalization in 1973, the number of blacks killed has skyrocketed. As well, the incidence of breast cancer in women has increased by more than 40 percent. According to recent data from the American Cancer Society, this cancer now ranks as a leading cause of death in black women. Abortion and miscarriages (to a lesser extent) both increase a woman’s risk of getting breast cancer because the lactation process is prematurely halted when the woman is no longer pregnant. Mandating acceptance of abortion is the true war on women.
Reasons most often given by women seeking abortion are the desire to postpone childbearing, lack of financial resources, or relationship issues with a partner. Over 70% of black children are born into single-parent homes and less than 20% of black men graduate. A large percentage of those that do graduate are functionally illiterate. How are men supposed to live up to their desired obligations to care and provide for their families and to being the father they wish to be for their children when they cannot even read?
Instead of focusing on abortion as a civil right and promoting the self-genocide of our people, maybe the NAACP should focus on education and the freedom that comes with a good education, as we at The Frederick Douglass Foundation do.
Blacks in America have gone from 22% of the population to 13% presently. Without the influence of abortion, homicide and AIDS, it was projected that, by 2012, blacks would be 40% of the population. Yet, the NAACP supports the wholesale slaughter of black babies in the abortion mills.
AIDS is another major killer of blacks in America. “More than 1.2 million people in America are living with HIV or AIDS. Almost 50% of the new HIV infections every year are in Black Americans. Among women, more than 60% of women with HIV are Black. Among gay and bisexual men, more than 40% of those living with HIV are Black. Among HIV-positive youth, between the ages of 15-29, nearly 70% are Black.”
If the NAACP wanted to tackle the AIDS epidemic in our community, they would be dealing with the fundamental issues of family and education so that our men would stop ending up in jail, where many of them have their first homosexual experience. They come out of jail with HIV and pass it on to the woman they love. If the NAACP were serious about AIDS, instead of encouraging a lifestyle that too often causes the spread of AIDS, they would be encouraging Fatherhood.
Instead, the NAACP has come out in favor of President Obama’s desire to redefine marriage as an any-thing-goes contract between any two people regardless of their sexuality. Redefining a God-defined sacrament that existed before the United States was even imagined, will only serve to make marriage even more rare. If marriage already has a meaning, allowing flawed men to give it a new meaning will render it meaningless in the minds of too many people. And what right does the Obama Administration and the NAACP presume to have that would allow them to redefine God’s law?
A wholesale endorsement of the gay lifestyle through redefinition of marriage in order to make homosexual relationships equal to normal relationships will drive more black boys and men to feel comfortable trying homosexuality. They will take the HIV and AIDS that they get in prison and spread it to black women. More black women will die. How does this advance colored people? How is this not a war on women?
Black-on-black homicide and gang-related homicide also lead to way too many dead black folks. If a young black man isn’t killed by another, he is too likely to be sent to jail. Some of the biggest threats to the black community are broken homes and incarceration. By the time a black male is 40, there is a 70% chance that he has spent time in jail, rehab or some kind of institution at least once and 32% of black males can expect to see prison time over the course of their life.
These are stats that break my heart and I simply cannot live with.
Where is the NAACP on these issues? You know the answer to that. They are on the wrong side. They’re more interested in keeping their power by making money from the abortion providers and the homosexuals, and in turn, they promote abortion and “gay marriage” against the interests of the people they presume to represent. Follow the money. It doesn’t go to helping the black community. It helps the politicians get campaign funds. And what have they done for you lately?
Every time I turn around the NAACP is calling something a civil right. Have they lost all sense of reality? I have to wonder what type of education people are getting these days. It seems as though the educational system is really just an indoctrination system. If the right to marry someone of the same sex is a civil right, like the kind that black folks fought for to get equal protection written into the law, then the world is turned upside down. Choosing to live a gay lifestyle is not the same as being born black, and to say otherwise only cheapens the advancements in civil rights that we black people earned.
As well, there were Christian arguments behind Frederick Douglass and MLK’s crusades for civil rights. There is no Biblical argument whatsoever for redefining marriage for gay people. The NAACP needs to stop supporting our genocide and needs to stop taking us for suckers.

“Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave.” Frederick Douglass
Minorities in America are leading in all of the WRONG areas: Incarceration rates 47%, Drop-out rates 44%, Abortion rate 38 %, and children born to fatherless homes 72%. Yet we make up only 14% of the population. We are better than that.
Knowing that every politician in your neighborhood is a Democrat, where things rarely seem to get better, how does it make sense to continue to just blame the Republicans for the mess?
Frederick Douglass said, “What is possible for me is possible for you.”
We have the opportunity to do anything now, let us show the world we can.
As Americans it is time we re-evaluate our allegiance to the Democratic Party and reject Cronnie Capitalism. We must build on the rich heritage of Fredrick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr, Soujourner Truth, George W. Murray and many many more.
Our Goals must be to educate, enhance, and empower ourselves. There has always been much talk in the community about “our history” and who we are as a people, why don’t we actually remember, that until the 1960s, the Democratic Party was for whites only? There were no free black Democrats. Have you ever wondered why ALL blacks were Republicans, or why the first black politicians after the Civil War were all Republican? Hiram Rhodes Revels, for example, served in the 41st Congress between 1870 and 1871. It is tragic that most Americans born after 1950 have no idea about their rich heritage and history.
It was the Republican Party that abolished slavery, established voting rights for blacks, integrated our public schools and appointed qualified blacks to positions of authoritity.“
The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppose.” Frederick Douglass
To succeed and compete in todays world Blacks need to understand economics, and not the kind that our local politicians peddle to keep us poor. Supply and demand isn’t just a construct invented by white people to keep black people poor. It’s real, and it affects the prices, costs and availability of all products and services.
Lower taxes aren’t just for greedy rich whites who want to take money from poor black folks. They enable businesses, big and small, to form, grow and hire folks to work. Lowering taxes helps the free market enterprise drive the economy by producing jobs, allowing more unemployed people to leave the welfare rolls and enter the work force, and that’s the equivalent of teaching a man to fish rather than giving him the fish in exchange for your vote- like the Democrats do as they expect us to blindly vote for them as if we were a people without the mental capacity to think for ourselves or believe we deserve more than the leftovers of everyone else. More businesses and more jobs create competition but also more demand in the form of more workers with a paycheck to spend, and this results in reduced prices for goods and services.
The lies of the Democrat Party are what keeps minority neighborhoods poor, and for this reasons alone you have every reason to vote Republican. Democrats have been winning the PR Campaign for far too long. It’s the Democrats who rewrite history and control the educational systems. It was the Democrats who told blacks that life will be better for you if you just start voting Democrat. They said they’d leave them alone and stop the violence and lynching’s. Remember, it the Democrat party was the party of the KKK. And remember, every soldier that fought the Civil War for the South against Republican President Abraham Lincoln was a Democrat. And now it is the Democratic PR machine that tells the black man it isn’t so. Furthermore, your Democrat betters conveniently erase from history great men such as black Republican pioneer Dr. Arthur Fletcher. He is known as the father of affirmative action, he served as secretary of labor under President Richard Nixon, and he headed the U.S. Civil Rights Commission under President George H.W. Bush. But because he was a Republican, nothing great is rarely spoken of this man.
For years now, the racist label has been attached to Republicans without any supporting evidence. Yet the charge has gone mostly unanswered. Few have publicly addressed the unearned condemnation, and generations of black folk live and die without ever knowing the truth.
Fredrick Douglass said “I am a Republican, a black, dyed in the wool Republican, and I never intend to belong to any other party than the party of freedom and progress.”
Why have you never questioned or wondered? Well, now that you have a little piece of the puzzle you can. Start today and open up a whole new world of possibilities for yourself.

The primary mission of the Frederick Douglas Foundation is to educate people within our community about the importance of living their lives through a Biblical World view. Our education focuses on conservative principles both within a social and economic framework. Within this context, we set out to help individual understand basic economics, the importance of voting values, the significance role of the traditional family, and the need to return to traditional faith based values within their lives.
For us to be able to reach out to the community at large there is very important way that you can help the Frederick Douglas Foundation of New York ; that would be to offer us “free of charge” a location where we can hold one of our seminars, workshops, or events in the Rochester Community. They could include a Church, Community Center, Youth Center, hotel, school, banquet facility, or restaurant. Additionally, we would be more than happy to travel within New York State to speak or present one of our events to your organization, church, or school. To find out more about our programs, please go to our link HERE. All we would ask of you is to provide location and advertising for such event. We prefer to go into the inner city as that is the mission field the Lord has called us to, however we will not limit our message strictly to this geographic location because we feel strongly that our message of conservative values will resonate to all communities.

Help us Spread What We Believe- The Message of Freedom
I have one great political idea. . . . That idea is an old one…..The best expression of it, I have found in the Bible. It is in substance, “Righteousness exalteth a nation; sin is a reproach to any people” [Proverbs 14:34]. This constitutes my politics – the negative and positive of my politics, and the whole of my politics. . . . I feel it my duty to do all in my power to infuse this idea into the public mind, that it may speedily be recognized and practiced upon by our people. ~Frederick Douglass
American History is rich with amazing heroes and it is a shame that Liberals would rather divided and conquer. I long for the day of revival when God’s People stand up and unite as it is then and only then nothing will be kept from us. We have the power god has given it to us. Revival, Revival, May the hearts and minds of the people turn back towards The Great I AM! We have two offensive weapons Prayer (prayer is a conversation and God will answer with an action plan) and the Word of God… Let’s use it and be unashamed. God’s Grace is on thee and we would be wise to remember that we speak in Love to plant the seeds of conviction NOT condemnation. Therefore, when the enemy comes at you to tell silence you be wise, be bold and speak the WORD of God with the love you know is in your heart. DO NOT let the enemy silence you with lies of peace!
Too many times these days, I find myself wondering if we know we are a free people? I often find myself thinking of Harriett Tubman and something she once said: “I freed thousands of slaves. I could have freed thousands more if they knew they were slaves.”
As we look at Black History month as well as the beauty of America, I have to wonder, “Do you know you can be free?”
When Frederick Douglass was being taught to read by his slave master’s wife, her husband came in and caught them. The slave master said to her, “A nigger should know nothing but to obey his master- to do as he is told to do. Learning would spoil the best nigger in the world. If you teach that nigger how to read, there would be no keeping him. It would forever unfit him to be a slave.”
And there you have it- the goal of the ghetto. Couple that with the words of Karl Marx,-“A people without a history are easily controlled”- and you have the complete strategy of the Democrat Party. If a whole people can’t or won’t read about their true history, they are easily controlled by those who would keep them from that history.
At the time, Frederick Douglass didn’t understand what Mr. Auld was saying, but he soon realized what was meant. There were actually times while he was still a slave that he wished he had never learned to read, for if he hadn’t, he would not have been so miserable. Now isn’t that the truth!
I bring up Frederick Douglass because our educational system has been overtaken by liberal elites. There are no Republicans in power in the inner cities. In the process of this takeover, as the elites gained more control, blacks became less and less educated. With that, blacks were more and more unable to remember and recite their own history. Have you ever wondered why this is?
“Black History Month” should be a Democrat’s nightmare, but they have so indoctrinated so many generations of people that we do not even know how to read (see black literacy rates), not to mention our history and the atrocities done to us by the hands of Democrats. So, they use this month as their annual opportunity to further exploit race and convince us that race relations have progressed very little since the time that they (Democrats) would have paraded me around with a full-face muzzle. Those in control of the message try to ignore the mere mention that it was the Democrat Party that was the party of slavery, segregation and the KKK, and that it was in fact the Republican Party that was formed to end slavery. How do you talk about our great heroes without bringing that up? It is as if they are trying to hide in plain sight. The truth is there though.
For all the Democrat Party’s talk of black empowerment, all I see is a party telling us black folks that we are nothing without government and that we have to hold on to eternal grudges, which is the exact opposite of what God tells us to do. Black history is wrapped up in Jesus Christ, so, for all you people out there that want to make it complicated, I have a News flash for you: “Personal responsibility is black empowerment!”
We, in America, were lucky that we were founded as a Christian nation. We are endowed with certain inalienable rights, given to us by our Creator, and our Founding Fathers made clear that “all men are created equal.” This principal was placed in the Declaration of Independence because our Founding Fathers didn’t like slavery, even though many of them owned slaves. Slavery existed before the United States. They set out to create a nation that would be free of the bondage of slavery, and that goal was realized within a century, using the principals that they had put to paper.
You would think that this would be part of the focus of “Black History” month. But if the government school system was not such an abject failure, our great and amazing black heroes would be woven throughout our history books, and every day would be a tribute to the wonderful and Godly Heroes of old. We would then still see strong black families, for the knowledge of such black pioneers would be an inspiration to our youth, reminding them that government is not their savior and that America is unique because anyone can grow beyond their family history and humble beginnings. We in American live in the greatest land of opportunity the world has ever known. We are not a class system. Just because your father may have been a peasant, a drug addict or a criminal, you do not have to be. We aren’t obligated to suffer the sins of our fathers.
I love that they tell us about Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr., Sojourner Truth. Josiah Walls etc… but they do not actually teach us about them and how they and those names below overcame and strove for excellence to achieve such major success? Did you know that all four of these people were Republicans? And here are some other great black folks most have never heard about because they don’t and won’t teach you in school about great Republican blacks: Rev. Andrew Bryan, The Rev. “Black Harry” Hoosier, Hiram Revels, Carter Woodson, John Marrant, John Marrant, Robert Smalls, Andre Cailloux, William Carney, and the list goes on.
Or what about this nugget of history? On February 12, 1865, Pastor Henry Highland Garnett preached a sermon in the U.S. Capitol Building to celebrate the end of slavery. That was 1865, not 1965.
I say Black History Month should not just feature stories of “how America has done blacks wrong.” This type of rhetoric only inspires resentment, hopelessness and an entitlement attitude, which breeds failure. We have a 70% high school drop out rate amongst our youth. If we continue on this path, ask yourself this: What will they celebrate during black history month in the future?
Blacks suffer from epic-sized statistics in AIDS rates, violence, school dropout rates, out-of-wedlock births, and in depopulation rates due to killing our own unborn children. Did you know half of black babies are aborted via an organization founded on racism? Planned Parenthood’s founder sought to rid the world of blacks. Yet blacks are actively involved in a self-induced genocide. This is not the future we should be focused on leaving our children.
We should celebrate the greatness of our extraordinary nation and how both blacks and whites sacrificed everything- blood, sweat, and tears- for the idea that “All men are created equal.” And how we as Americans fought to see freedom become a reality. Rather than allowing Black History Month to continue to be exploited as a divisive tool for the extortion of votes, let’s allow the truth of our history to bring people together. Blacks are an important thread in the fabric of this great nation, and it is time we allow the past to be healed so that we can do something great with the time we are given now.

The U.S. State Department calls the Islamic Republic of Iran the worlds most active state sponsor of terrorism. They who call us the Great Satan and continue to provide funding, training, weapons, and sanctuary to terrorist groups such as the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, Hamas and others who are for the destruction of Israel and “The Great Satan” Sorry to me this is not my friend and to suggest I or those who want to protect ourselves against folks like this are in the wrong are friends of my enemy and therefore I take issue with them and if you are running for president of the USA and have this view why would I vote for you to be my commander in Chief?

The Rochester School Board Wants to Promote more sexual disaster to teenagers – Part 1
I am not sure how many parents and taxpayers are aware of the “battle” that has been going on, since last year, between the Rochester City School Board (RCSB), the Metro Council for Teen Potential and concerned parents, but I want to make sure we inform as many people as possible about the proposed Condom Availability Program (C.A.P.) and the W.I.S.E program (Well-physically, Intellectually, Socially,& Emotionally for 4th graders and up which promotes everything from condom use to homosexuality which has already piloted in 2 schools). This C.A.P program is apparently in response to a couple of Rochester City School children who transmitted AIDS, from adults over the age of 18 in 2010. The school board, along with Planned Parenthood (the number one killers of blacks in America), and Safe Sex, Inc. wants to hand out “free” (nothing is free, right taxpayers?) condoms to our children ages 11 and up.
Mind you, it is illegal, by law, for children under the age of 17 to engage in sexual intercourse (NYS penal code law 130.30 and 130.05). When I first heard about this program, I admit I was disturbed from the onset and I couldn’t help wondering why is the school board not trying to teach some type of sexual integrity or character to the children, if anything? So, I went to a meeting to find out what it was all about, only to realize that CAP program was already in motion for approval and this “informational” meeting was nothing more than a meeting to tell me as a parent why this was the best solution for my children.
I asked around and became more involved to find out what was going on. To my astonishment, I discovered that school nurses could already give condoms to our children, via prescriptions, and that it was “free”. As well, the school district has already hired certain organizations to bring latex penis’ which stick to the children’s desktop by a suction cup to teach our children how to put a condom on in the classroom with both male and female classmates present. 1 Timothy 5:1-2
Think about this: if some other stranger was to take any of our children to a secluded location and show them these same sexual images along with discussing the material being presented, that person would be charged with child molestation and child pornography. So why is it any different when a stranger comes into our children’s classroom to do this very same thing should not be penalized by the law? Not to mention the fact that our children’s brain have not fully developed to fully understand the complexity of all the mental, spiritual, and emotional attachments to sexual intercourse. They are children, not capable of making rational decisions. 1 Thessalonians 4:4. Seems like common sense doesn’t it? But not to the Rochester City School Board. See Research and Study information HERE You can also see Dr. Wilson talk more about this HERE:
Well, what more could they want to do? – I asked myself. I attended a so called “parent meeting” in October, where we as parents were lectured to and spoken at by Planed Parenthood and the Metro Council for Teen Potential. Despite the fact that 98% of RCSD parents and community members, who attended the meeting, were opposed to the sex-ed programs/strategies which were being discussed, the RCSB, has ignored the cares and concerns of RCSD parents and have allowed their own financial agenda to take precedence over the well-being of our children
I have to ask, is this really what we want the schools to teach our children? Isn’t it our job as parents to choose what we want our kids to learn and when? What ever happened to my values? The school district hosts people who come from many different cultures and religious backgrounds- Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Atheist, Gnostic, and Buddhist etc. How then can they decide to teach our kids in some cookie cutter fashion? We all have different values and different principles that we want to teach our children about relationships, specially intimate relationships with others.
Some might ask about those children who do not have parents at home who care or do not want to talk to their children about sexual relationships. It’s a fair concern, but then I have to ask, if these children will be taught anything by a responsible adult, should it be how to put on a condom?
What do we owe each other? Anything? What is our responsibility, as neighbors and citizens, to each other?
Isn’t it those children who come from homes where parents are not cultivating caring relationships and not teaching them how to respect themselves and others get a better education than how to put a condom on? They have already been dealt a rough start as it is. Instead of us throwing them away and telling them a condom (which fails at least 15% of the time) is the answer, shouldn’t we have some compassion and take the time to love them by being a guide to them and giving them the solutions we know work- the same ones that we would give our own children? Wouldn’t we be doing them a good service?
For the more severe cases, we should be working with agencies that will lovingly take the time to go into the homes which are broken to talk with the parents and make personal connections. We should help to equip the parents with the tools necessary to take on the role and responsibility of being an INVOLVED parent in their child’s life, so that their children don’t end up in the same stale mistakes that they have made. If we were to take this proactive approach in reaching the community, then we would see less teen pregnancies and lower levels of STD’s. These children would learn a different way and hopefully learn from the mistakes of others. If we were teaching them that they are more than just the situation they are born into and they have a purpose to full fill in this earths realm, THEN we will see progress. Instead of throwing away these kids like trash and condemning them to a life of promiscuity and too often some type of prostitution, we have the privilege to help “parent” them in lieu of their missing “parents.” That, my friend, is the way of Jesus.
We, as adults, have a responsibility to look out for these children who don’t have parents who are willing and able to care for them themselves. Will it work for all? NO! But it will certainly work for a good 80% of the population, and that is a great start.

I cannot for the life of me understand why NY State, Monroe County, or the Rochester City School board thinks that proven-to-fail sex-ed policies will work here when they have not worked anywhere else. Let us look at the United Kingdom.
In the late 1990’s, the Labour Government in the UK made a goal to reduce it’s teen pregnancy rate in half by 2010. To this end,they instituted mandatory contraception focused sex education in schools, which provided free condoms and birth control, abortion, and emergency contraception tochildren, without parents permission. This is the same philosophy that motivates the RCSD and Mayor Bloomberg’s sex ed mandate- more contraception will solve the problem of STD’s, teen pregnancy, and the spread of HIV/AIDS. So if now, more than a decade after the UK implemented this policy, we are considering the implementation of it here, it must be because it was such a success in the UK, right?
Wrong. In fact, the pregnancy rate remains virtually unchanged in the UK, but it has risen for teenagers under 16. Meanwhile, the abortion rate has increased, and the rates of sexually transmitted diseases have gone through the roof. And this only cost 300 million pounds (almost $473,000,000). What did they do with those monies?- you ask. It went to a widespread campaign in schools, which included promotion of confidential health services, sex education, contraception, and the morning-after pill. Yet the 2009 Under-18 pregnancy rate (the latest for which I have statistics) was almost unchanged, as was the Under-16 rate. There was a very slight reduction from the peak year of 1998, which the government liked to use for comparison, but nowhere near the target 50% reduction that they were looking for.
This was a vast effort and expense, which achieved almost nothing. Except, it did perhaps achieve one thing. Over the period of the campaign, there was a sharp increase in the level of sexually transmitted diseases amongst teenagers. We can’t prove that this is cause and effect (and to be fair the overall rate had been rising since before the campaign). But the data strongly suggest that the campaign may have been a contributory factor. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that if you tell kids that they can have unprotected sex and kill the baby by taking a morning after pill that they’re going to have more unprotected sex, and it doesn’t take another genius to figure out that if kids are having more unprotected sex that they’re going to get more STDs. But don’t tell that to the Rochester City School Board- they’ll skoff at you as if your were one of those crazy parents who don’t want your children to catch herpes before junior high.
One UK government official said in 2007, “What we actually need is for family-led organizations, and local communities and the voluntary sector to work together on these problems.” In addition, this strong point was made: “Moreover, parents must be part of the process, not kept in ignorance: evidence from America shows that their involvement helps to reduce teenage pregnancy rates. This is because it is the family, above all, that is the key here.” EXACTLY, and that is all we are saying. That is the solution we advocate. It took the UK twenty years to figure out what we have known all along and have been steadily abandoning since the “Sexual Revolution.”
There are other Comparative studies in other countries we can look at. See Here:
Do we continue with 30 years of failed policy and allow the school board to prepare our children to be pimped out to sexual predators?
Or do we make them listen to the facts and face the truth?
We have over 40 years of US Census Bureau data to show how STDs, the pregnancy rate and poverty has only risen since birth control and other contraceptives have become widely available, thus giving us a false sense of security while encouraging further risky behavior. This is especially so in urban areas (thanks to drug stores and thousands of Title-X funded medical clinics, which far outnumber Planned Parenthood population control centers). Planned Parenthood and “Safe Sex” is not the black community’s savior. Jesus Christ is. Helping to teach three generations of functionally illiterate parents how to parent and teach moral purity and/or sexual character- now those are solutions. Did you know that Planned Parenthood has put up shop, disproportionately (http://www.prolifeamerica.com), in urban areas, resulting in the abortion of black babies at up to 5.8 times (http://www.toomanyaborted.com/?p=3301) the rate of the majority population? Abortions continue to increase, annually, at Planned Parenthood abortion mills, while the nationwide unintended pregnancy rate (49%), according to CDC reports hasn’t changed since 1995. Yet the RCSD wants to put this organization, which despite a billion-dollar budget fails at its basic task, in charge of our children sexual education.
Well I contend that as the RSCD, which brags about a mere 49% general graduation rate and that has come in DEAD LAST on the most current list of NY State schools (outside of NYC), should focus more on educating students. Leave the promotion of sexuality to children– to perverts and pedophiles us parents have a tough enough job combating all the sex on TV and every other outlet. You would think the schools would want to help us parents instead of undermind us.
I would like you to consider a few other facts when considering how they want to teach “ Sexual Education” to our children Condoms are only 85% effective and only used 57% of the time. A condom merely reduces—but does not eliminate—the risk of an STD or pregnancy. With increasing sexual activity, the chances of condom failure automatically goes up.
• Planned Parenthood’s founder and mission developer was Margaret Sanger, a surprisingly unapologetic eugenicist (discouraging reproduction of undesirables like minorities, the disabled, etc. –a philosophy also embraced by the Nazi party.) Sadly, eugenicists enthusiastically continue to support PP’s efforts today.
• One in two sexually active people will contract an STD before the age of 25, despite (because of?) forty years of condom-oriented “safe sex.”
• CONDOMS DO NOT PROTECT against Chlamydia, syphilis, herpes or HPV.
• The scientific link between Suicide and Depression in sexually active teens is undeniable. Boys and girls suffer the effects and are 3 to 8 times as likely to be depressed or attempt suicide than boys or girls who are not sexually active.
• Creating the school atmosphere of sexuality also encourages oral sex options that lead to further risks.
• Real abstinence programs are legitimate and now PROVEN to be effective. Kids that don’t have sex don’t have babies and don’t get STD’s. It’s hard to argue that fact.
• We have a successful abstinence-based program which decreased sexual activity and increased the academic success of the worst teen students in the City of Rochester, and we would like to offer it free of charge to the community and the RCSD…please inquire and ask the district to implement this program on behalf of your children. The Rochester City School Board needs to hear from every monroe County Taxpayer and parent. So far they have ignored the cries of the parents who have, with a resounding voice, said NO- even after they held a parent forum a couple months back. I say it is time they stop ignoring us. These are our children, we are paying attention, and we are not going to go away until they listen to us. Giving the children to the tools to be raped by pedophiles, pederasts and perverts should not be a part of an educational experience.

Over the years there has been a concerted effort, on behalf of many, to rewrite political history, especially when it comes to that of the Democrat Party. After finding this out, I set out to find the truth and answer a question that has been on my mind. Is the Republican the same party it once was? In studying the history of the Republican Party, I have to admit that I found myself rather impressed. The Republican Party was formed for the purpose of abolishing slavery and it succeeded with Lincoln as its first president. President Lincoln, the first Republican president, won running on the platform of ending slavery and of being for equal rights. In response, the Democrats promptly started a Civil War because they’d rather dissolve the Union than give up their slaves.
In 1854, the anti-slavery Democrats, Whigs and Free Soil Advocates of Emancipation formed the Republican Party to fight slavery. Six of the nine planks on the original platform dealt with black equality and civil rights. At the same time, the Democrat Party argued that the abolition of slavery “would lead to the unhappiness of the people.” They obviously weren’t considering blacks as part of “the people.”
Democrat-appointed judges came up with the Dred Scott Decision. The first civil rights acts from 1866 through 1875- including the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments- were all passed by Republicans, against the will of the Democrat Party. But this fact is rarely talked about in history classes. In fact, schools I grew up in act like Civil Rights all started in 1964.
I look at these facts and many others, and I have to wonder, why did I not know? The 13th Amendment got all 118 Republican votes in Congress and only 19 of 82 Democrat votes- meaning 77% of the Democrats voted against freeing the slaves. This fact, when comparing the platforms of the two parties, makes me ask: should I, should blacks, vote for Democrats or Republicans? Are we voting for our values? Since blacks are not all the same, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Yet the black vote is more overwhelmingly tied to the Democrats than that of any other group. Nearly 90% of all blacks vote for Democrats, leaving themselves overly susceptible to being taken for granted by the party they vote for and ignored by the party they vote against.
Inevitably people bring up the “Dixiecrat” issue and Kennedy’s 1964 Civil rights act, but upon further examination, I again found a few things that got me to thinking. The history and formation of the Dixiecrats is quite fascinating, but is by far the easiest to refute if one studies history honestly. I won’t get into the whole “Dixiecrat” history right now, maybe at a later point, but I will quickly answer the question “Where did the Dixiecrats go?” Contrary to legend, it made no sense for them to join with the Republican Party, which is the party of civil rights achievements. The answer is, they returned to the Democrat party and rejoined others such as George Wallace, Orval Faubus, Lester Maddox, and Ross Barnett. Interestingly, of the 26 known Dixiecrats (5 governors and 21 senators) only three ever became Republicans: Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and Mills E. Godwind, Jr. The segregationists in the Senate, on the other hand, would return to their party and fight against the Civil Rights acts of 1957, 1960 and 1964.
The issue of President Kennedy isn’t as simple as that of the Dixiecrats, but an issue of political brilliance so I do want to dive into that history which I will do in a moment but first let me look at “What has the Republican Party done for the black community lately?” Well, after more self motivated research, as this was not information offered to me by schools or the mainstream media news outlets, I again was left with a slew of information that gave me GREAT reason for pause from my initial thinking. While it seems that the Republican Party has given up its mantle as the party of small government to an extent, which I honestly do not think is a good thing, I did find some statistics, policies and bills put forth by Republicans that were interesting. Let’s first consider these little tidbits:
While over 80% of Americans support the following propositions, only 13% of Democrats voted to allow voluntary prayer in schools, only 21% of Democrats voted to allow the public display of the 10 Commandments, only 5% of Democrats voted to allow free speech for churches, only 15% of the Democrats voted to protect marriage, and only 17% of Congressional Democrats voted to keep “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance. While the Republicans are for these ideals along with the majority of black voters, the Democrats prove that they are not democratic by voting against the majority.
Another item of particular importance to blacks was President Bush’s faith-based initiative that put church-based social services programs on an equal footing with secular programs when competing for government grants. President George W. Bush appointed more blacks to high-level positions than any president in our nation’s history and spent record money on education, job training, small business development and health care. But with that said during President Bush’s tenure…….
Oh, sorry I ran out of space so stay tuned for part 2. I will continue to study up on this subject, as well as go over the Kennedy issue and I invite you to not only do the same but share with me what you find as I expect all who read this to hold my feet to the fire and make sure I have not only my facts straight but that it is the TRUTH.
PART 2 ———————–
I ended last time writing about some of what President Bush did, but let me go back for a second. There are some significant things in history we should look at. Karl Marx once said: “A people without a history are easily controlled,” and I see Americans so willing to be controlled today that I have to wonder, is it because we do not really know our own history? What do you think? Back to the subject at hand….
After initial flurry of successfully passed Republican-passed Civil Rights amendments and bills, the Republicans ran into a dry spell. They continued to offer civil rights bills to protect blacks in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1954 & 1957. One was an attempt to abolish the poll tax restricting the blacks’ right to vote. But the Democrats killed them all through filibusters.
In a move of seemingly politically genius in 1963, President John F. Kennedy reintroduced the civil rights act that he had voted against as a Senator in 1957. It’s likely that Kennedy knew that, in order to win the black vote, he would have to court it despite his previous opposition to civil rights. In doing so, he promised new civil rights legislation and declared that he would end housing discrimination with a “stroke of the pen.” A few weeks before the 1960 election, Kennedy broadened his black support by helping to secure the release of Martin Luther King, Jr. from an Atlanta jail, where he had been imprisoned for leading an anti-segregation demonstration.
Once in office, though Kennedy moved slowly on civil rights issues (taking 2 years before acting) because he feared he might alienate Southern white Democrats. Eventually though, racial violence became too much to ignore, and Kennedy’s administration filed 28 suits to protect black voting rights starting with the famous 1963 civil rights act. But in keeping with the tradition and the spirit of the Democrat Party, Democrat Senators Howard Smith, Al Gore Sr. and Richard Russell worked hard to keep the civil rights bill from a vote. Nonetheless, with the help of Republican Everette Dirksen, it came to pass. Dirksen broke the filibuster led by Albert Gore Sr. (D) and Robert Byrd (D) (former Kleagle of the Democrat-Party’s social group the KKK). That’s right, all KKK members were Democrats.
While Kennedy was better than most Democrats, as far as his treatment of blacks, his reluctance to be on the right side of Civil Rights and the fact that it was politics that brought him there, history still leaves a bit of a cloud over his record.
Let me get back to some present day “history”.
During President Bush’s tenure, more than 1,200 community health centers opened or expanded nationwide, which helped provide treatment to nearly 17 million poor people. The number of people covered by affordable and portable Health Savings Account-eligible plans increased 35 percent from 2007 to 2008, and $10 billion was spent for Medicaid, the state-federal health insurance for the poor. Also, the number of uninsured children under the age of 18 declined by 800,000 from 2001 to 2007, according to a federal survey. Black Americans also benefited from President Bush’s tax cuts that were provided to all Americans who pay taxes. The child tax credit was doubled to $1,000 and 13 million low-income earners were removed from the income tax rolls completely. Poor blacks received an additional gift of $1,658 per family under the Earned Income Tax Credit program.
While these are not always looked on as positives when we consider the budget and the debt, it is a far cry from the racist monster some make Bush out to have been. Especially when we again look at the fact that President George W. Bush appointed more blacks to high-level positions than any president in our nation’s history. Obama’s only comparable claim would be that he has appointed a record 210 openly gay or bisexual professionals to full-time and advisory positions. Which of these is more beneficial to the black community and for that matter which is more Christian like?
Anyway next subject topic. When the economy is growing, creating more jobs and business opportunities, blacks prosper as well as all Americans. When President Bush took office in January 2001, our economy was in recession and was then hit hard by the attacks of September 11, 2001 and then two other historic natural disasters. Thanks to President Bush’s tax cuts, our economy experienced a miraculous recovery. The tax cuts were responsible for the longest run of uninterrupted job growth — 52 straight months, or six straight years — with 8.3 million jobs created. Prior to the economic downtown in 2008, GDP grew by more than 17 percent from 2000 to 2007, a remarkable gain of nearly 2.1 trillion dollars.
The root of our current economic troubles was not deregulation by the Bush Administration, but the failure of the government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which President Bush attempted to subject to more regulation. By the time Congress finally acted in 2008 to provide the oversight President Bush requested, it was too late to prevent the crisis that had its genesis in the 1970’s.
And the list goes on, not just for Bush, but for Republicans in general, and in learning just these few facts I had to ask myself: Why are Republicans, who have from their inception championed civil rights for blacks and women, called racists? And even though they are called racists, why do they still continue to champion those causes and fight for equal opportunity for all? I believe these questions deserve some deep reflection. Have we as a people been deliberately brainwashed as some have claimed or are we truly voting our values?
Again I run out of space so I guess there is a part 3. Please continue to look up the history presented here and correct me if I am miss-informed.
Critique of today’s Republican Party–Part 3
If I were to ask you if you believed the following, what would you say?
Do you believe…
1. In equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.
2. That America must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times.
3. That the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.
4. That the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations, and that the best government is that which governs least.
5. That the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people.
6. That free enterprise and that encouraging individual initiative will continue to bring this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.
7. That Government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money that they earn.
8. That American values are what we should turn to as we try maintaining our national strength and pride, while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world.
If you find yourself in agreement with all or the majority of the above propositions, then I have to ask you, as I asked myself: Why are you not voting Republican? These are the fundamentals of the Republican Party.
What has happened to keep us from voting our values? Why is it that 90% of blacks vote one party? We are the only group of people for which this is so and thus the only people whose votes are almost completely taken for granted.
After researching this subject, I think I have a good idea on what happened and how we can solve the problem. I will write on that another time.
Consider these brilliant and famous folks, and remember that they are or were Republicans: LL Cool J, Chuck Norris, Walter E. Williams, 50 cent, James Earl Jones, Congressman Tim Scott, Dr. Timothy Johnson (founder of the Frederick Douglass Foundation), Brue Willis, Alveda King (Niece of Martin Luther King Dr.), Karl Malone, Lynn Swan (former Steelers player), Sammy Davis Jr., Don King, The Rock, Congressman Allen West, Susan Lucci, Thomas Sowell, Robert Duvall, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Tony Danza. And while the list goes on and on, who can forget that Martin Luther King Jr. and Harriet Tubman were Republicans, as were just about all blacks in America before 1950. Those who lived through history had a first-had memory that it was the Democrats that formed the KKK. It is Democrats who would sit in the voting booths with blacks holding a shotgun to the black man’s head so as to make sure he voted Democrat.
Today, it is kind of the same. If you are black and dare try to vote Republican, you are ostracized & bullied. You’re called a race trader or some other slur or have some high tech lynching performed on you, but if you just vote Democrat and take the little bit of the table scraps handed to you with the dignity of a begging dog, all is well. Hmmm… I suppose this explains so much revisionist history. Shouldn’t we, who so pride ourselves about our history, really know it and try connecting the dots? And, this is not to say there are not many great well, meaning Democrats, I know many.
Did you know that the Affirmative Action was a Republican-Party-Sponsored Policy, authored by Arthur Fletcher? Fletcher also gave us “The mind is a terrible thing to waste” slogan for the United Negro College Fund and the “Philadelphia Plan,” which enforced equal employment and business opportunities for minorities. Fletcher was appointed by President Nixon to be assistant secretary of wage and labor standards in the Department of Labor and again by President George H. W. Bush as chairman of the United States Commission on Civil Rights (USCCR).
Nixon and Bush, like most Republicans, believe that Faith, strong family values, self-help programs and black economic development are the principal paths towards complete freedom and black empowerment. Yet for this belief so many call them racists, even though they continue looking out for the well-being of the black man. I have to admit, I think this fact is appalling.
The unpopular (even among most blacks) and unfair quota system of Affirmative Action we have today was not the original intent of the policy. It was crafted as a merit-based program to counter the actions of Democrat President Woodrow Wilson, who, after he was elected in 1912 (along with the Democrat-controlled congress), kicked blacks out of Federal government jobs and then prevented them from obtaining federal contracts. President Wilson was also famous for showing D. W. Griffith’s “The Birth of a Nation” movie at the White House. This movie glorified the KKK, and is considered by some to be the inspiration for the second wave of the Clan–remember, an organization of Democrats.
Something else to think about- unlike the planks of the Democrat Party, the planks of the Republican Party have hardly changed since the party’s founding. Although recently (last 30 years or so), the Republican establishment has repeatedly compromised so much with Democrats that the party lines too often seem so blurred that we can barely tell the difference between the two parties. But again, is the Republican Party the same today as it was then?
At first glance I would say yes, except for its willingness to compromise with an organization (the Democrat Party) that in 1866 formed a national group called the Ku Klux Klan to regain control. And who can forget that, until as recently as the 1960’s, the Democrats have openly advocated for segregation? Even in today’s educational system, they wish to keep blacks in failing schools and fight tooth and nail against school-choice. It is Republicans who fight to get blacks the freedom of going to the school of their choice. It is the Democrats, beholden more to the teachers’ unions than to blacks, that want to keep blacks in dangerous “schools” that will happily graduate blacks functionally illiterate. An illiterate black has trouble finding a job and therefore is more likely to live off the system that the Democrat Party grifts for profit at the expense of the same people the system was supposedly meant to help.
And if that surprises you, do some research on Malcolm X, his feelings about Planned Parenthood (originally the Birth Right Review) and about blacks and the Democrat Party. It is fascinating.
Truth be told, when I look at many of the policies of the Democrats, I am offended that they do not think we are capable of succeeding on our own, that they have driven the spirit of the black man down so much that we honestly believe that the taking scraps of welfare is a fitting and acceptable lifestyle. I have bigger and better plans for my children, I want to leave my children a legacy like that of many whites so that we too can build an empire, so that my taxes are going to help others and it is not that we are just living off the tax dollars of others. This is our time, as a people, to arise and again take our place in history as 21st century abolitionists (www.tfdf.org).
If it were not for Republicans and Conservatives, blacks would still be slaves, but because history was rewritten and reinvented by Democrats, 90% of blacks vote for the same party that enslaved them and that whipped them a century and a half ago. And they vote against the party that fought a civil war to end slavery. The world just ain’t right because of this. We, as a culture, need to take a hard look at our community and ask some very serious questions as we do some soul searching.
There are many ways in which our public education system has failed us, and this is one of them. If you’re wondering why things rarely get better, then take a look at the party that has held control of your neighborhood for the last 20 to 30 years, and you just might have your answer. Wherever Democrats reign, people are feeling pain.
“Freedom is essentially a condition of inequality, not equality. It recognizes as a fact of nature the structural differences inherent in man, in temperament, character, and capacity and it respects those differences. We are not alike and no law can make us so.”
– Frank Chodorov

The Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York proudly stands firm traditional family values and the biblical definition of the holy institution we call marriage is the pledged union between one man and one woman at one time. We are saddened to see how far the Republican party has fallen into moral destitution due to pressures from the left and their homosexual agenda. It must be noted not long ago, same-sex “marriage” legislation was defeated with vigor under a Democrat-controlled State Senate; yet, we are facing mounting road blocks to defeating the same legislation under a Republican-controlled State Senate. We agree with the New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedom who maintained “that if the same-sex “marriage” bill were to pass under a GOP controlled State Senate, there is no significant reason for conservative voters to support Republican Senate candidates in future elections.”
It is time to for Republican “leaders” to re-evaluate who their base is and serve the people who are actually going to vote for them rather than having an irrational fear of a small minority of people (3 percent of the population) who didn’t vote for them and who won’t vote for them in the future, despite your flip-flopping on your views of traditional marriage. For those Republicans who have strayed from core conservative principles and decide to vote yes on the same-sex marriage bill, the FDFNY will focus all of our resources during the next election to make sure you will not return to Albany. We all saw what happened in NY 26 when true conservatism was ignored. Many Republican voters stayed home in key republican voting districts because they were unhappy with the ‘party’s choice’ of a candidate. In the fall of 2010, a survey of voters showed that 68% of Americans preferred conservative candidates. Americans not only believe in strong constitutional, fiscal policies but they also want candidates who possess and stand with social conservative values. If some Republicans (RINO’s) do not stop and realize they are on the wrong path it will be the end of their time in office. We have people from all walks of life, faiths and backgrounds who fundamentally agree that you are useless as republicans and we would be better served if you left the party in favor of some other party or starting your won party.
“If we fail to uphold traditional standards, and allow the gay agenda, the fundamental nature of not only America, but God’s creation will disappear.”- CL Bryant
We have said it before and we will say it again, the time is now. This is our season to ‘AGITATE!’ The battle is already won all we have to do is get up, move. Governor Andrew Cuomo is personally devoted to the cause of passing the same-sex “marriage” bill in the New York State Assembly. He even gave the gay activists his full attention by assigning Steven M. Cohen (the Secretary to the Governor and Cuomo’s top strategist and most senior aide) to oversee the administration’s efforts on the issue. Though Mr. Cohen is not typically involved in handling specific legislative matters, it is a telling move as to how far the Governor is willing to go in advancing this destructive agenda.
Quite frankly they are going to win unless we take immediate action right now. So I implore all of you to engage and speak out.
Contact your representatives Democrat or Republican and demand that they vote “NO” to same-sex marriage in New York State. As the left steps up their efforts, we must be willing to stand up for righteousness. It is apparent that there is nothing the left will not do in their campaign of corruption and intimidation to get “gay marriage.”
When contacting your elected officials, be very respectful but remember they work for you and don’t let them give you any lip!

Let us remember liberty is a two way street. As we respect others who live as they want, we too have the right to our religious freedoms and to live as we see fit. In fact I would rather see government out of the marriage business all together. If everyone was being honest and rational, government wouldn’t be involved. Marriage should be an institution of churches and other houses of worship.
But the battlefield brought before us is not on that level, so we must focus on the fight at hand.
Traditional marriage between a man and a woman was not originally a state institution, but it has always been uniquely protected by law and culture. It was a religious institution created by God long before the United States was ever even established as a nation, and its meaning was derived from God’s Word. Cuomo and the radical left’s homosexual agenda efforts to change the meaning of traditional marriage, is in direct violation of God’s Word. Marriage has a meaning that came from God. If the god-haters think they can use the government to change the meaning of marriage, aren’t they in essence rendering marriage meaningless? Is this not a violation of the separation of church and state? What right does Cuomo have to mandate legislation against God’s Law?
Another thing, this is not about equal rights. It’s about special rights. I as a heterosexual cannot marry some one of the same sex just because I’m a heterosexual. And presently, there is no law preventing homosexuals from marrying someone of the opposite sex. Nor can I as a heterosexual marry my father, brother or uncle. So in the gay agenda’s ego-maniacal collective mind, they deserve special rights, and in the process of getting them, they will legislate away God’s word. Even if they get away with it though, having homosexual relations inside of a state-approved marriage won’t mean that homosexual relations aren’t sinful. Government cannot legislate away sin.
As Jerry Crawford, Pro-life activist and Christian puts it “Since marriage is an institution created by God, and God calls “gay” sex an abomination (Lev. 20:13), what is the point? Getting our political whores to legalize sodomite marriage does not legitimize it in the eyes of God. So again, what is the point?” No civilization has ever or will in the future survive without marriage, and the destruction of marriage by any means is a contributing factor in nations that have faded into history. SEE STORY HERE:
The Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York is unapologeticly committed to blocking these efforts. We are asking you to stand with us today and fight for our religious freedoms and fight for marriage as it was given to us by God. We do not want marriage to be redefined by the government, Governor Cuomo, or anyone else.
Also, to those individuals who are trying to compare the gay marriage issue to the civil rights movement, there is absolutely no comparison to the struggle that black Americans suffered through from slavery to Jim Crow laws. Disgusting and violent oppression was inflicted on blacks during these decades simply because of the color of their skin. People choose to be homosexuals, but they do not choose to be black. I cannot repent of being black and change my skin color. To those using the civil rights movement to push their homosexual agenda, it is offensives to the black community and they should be ashamed of themselves. The comparison is an insult to all those brave black men and women whose blood was shed in the fight for freedom and freethinking Americans.
I want to leave you with some final quotes and thoughts.
Rev. Dr. Tommy Davis (FDFNY member and spiritual advisor) had this to say: “I will not exchange what God calls sacred for what liberals think is so. Morality is not defined by the House of Representatives or the U.S. Senate. If mankind has the authority to redefine the terms of his existence in the name of marriage equality, then let’s let all the pedophiles and rapists out of jail. Who are we to confine them? If government can redefine morality, so can criminals.”
Walter Fauntroy (founder of Congressional Black Caucus and pastor) once said: “Marriage is neither a conservative nor a liberal issue; it is a universal human institution, guaranteeing children fathers, and pointing men and women toward a special kind of socially as well as personally fruitful sexual relationship. Gay marriage is the final step down a long road America has already traveled toward deinstitutionalizing, denuding and privatizing marriage. It would set in legal stone some of the most destructive ideas of the sexual revolution: There are no differences between men and women that matter, marriage has nothing to do with procreation, children do not really need mothers and fathers, the diverse family forms adults choose are all equally good for children. What happens in my heart is that I know the difference. Don’t confuse my people, who have been the victims of deliberate family destruction, by giving them another definition of marriage.”
Rev. Mike Warren (Director of Rescue Rochester, a Pro-Life Christian Ministry) said: “Some of the most intolerant people I have ever met are homosexual activists who seek to portray themselves as victims of a biased society. The homosexual community is the best funded, politically connected, media massaged and legally protected minority in America. Far from victims, they are the bully on the block pushing and cajoling the American public to get their way. This push for passage of the Equality in Marriage Act in NYS is not about equality and civil rights but a desire for a immoral minority to see their abhorrent behavior affirmed and legitimized.”
Ron Miller(FDFNY Maryland President and author of the book Sellout) said: “The liberals say our objection to gay marriage is about hate and homophobia. The fact is most of us are and have been ‘live and let live.’ Most of us aren’t motivated to fight for marriage because we’re offended by gay people. I really couldn’t care less what they do in the privacy of their own homes – in fact, I don’t want to be involved in it, just as they don’t want to hear or see anything about my sex life. The real issue here is state recognition of two consenting adults of the same sex in a conjugal relationship. Does it matter? From the perspective of the financial incentives and benefits the state bestows on married couples, it does. Is it discrimination? Absolutely – but marriage is a discriminatory institution, or it used to be when society in general believed the nuclear family was the foundation upon which stable societies are built. The state still places restrictions on who can marry based on mental capacity, age of consent, blood relationships, number of people wishing to be married, et. al. The state encourages marriage between a man and a woman because the state benefits from the relative stability marriage brings. The black community is a prime example of that benefit. Black married families have a poverty rate of just over 8 percent, compared to 40 percent for single parent black families. The state saves money because marriage reduces the number of dependents on government aid, the crime rate, the number of people incarcerated, and many other negative statistics related to poverty. In effect, the state is saying: ‘History and experience says the trilateral construct of the traditional family – father, mother and children – is the social unit that brings the most stability to a community, society and nation. Therefore, we are designing policies and incentives that nurture and preserve that institution.’ That thinking is as old as the Bible and Aristotle, just to name two ancient sources of wisdom… There is more infringement of liberty on the part of militant gays, intimidating people, churches and businesses for exercising their freedom of conscience, than there is in saying simply, ‘Live and let live. Just leave my children, my right to believe as I wish, and the definition of marriage alone.’ That statement probably sums up what most proponents of marriage feel. There’s no hate or persecution in that statement.”

As far as the Frederick Douglass Foundation is concerned, these supposed republicans thinking about voting for gay marriage are a bunch of homophobes. They obviously have a greater irrational fear of a small, small minority of people who didn’t vote for them and will not in the future, than they do of their actual voters. Good luck on re-election homophobes.

A ‘Summer of Recovery’ spent in the ditch of unemployment
The Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York is disappointed with the Obama administration’s tax-and-spend policies, which are further threatening the economic solvency of the United States of America. Unemployment rates have gone back up to 9.1% during the month of May. The unemployment rate has averaged around 9% during Obama’s entire presidency, and the sluggish GDP has averaged about 2.69% (only half of the normal GDP at the beginning of an economic recovery).
In Obama’s first 19 months in office, the federal debt increased by $2.6 Trillion dollars, that is more than the cumulative national debt that was amassed by all the U.S presidents from George Washington through Ronald Reagan combined.
Chaplain Ayesha Kreutz, President of the Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York (FDFNY), said: “I cannot imagine why anyone would defend or vote for Obama for a second term. Obama hasn’t proven that he’s a good leader in any area foreign or domestic. These job numbers are abysmal. Especially when we consider the average unemployment rate among blacks is 17%, underemployment is 23%, young people between the ages of 16 and 24 face an unemployment rate nearly twice that of the rest of the population according to the Economic Policy Institute. One Pew study notes: the number of people unemployed for a year or more increased by 25 percent from December 2009 to December 2010. Other data shows almost half of the unemployed have been out of a job for more than six months, that figure is higher than during the Great Depression. This president has no business even running for a 2nd term.”
For two and a half years, Obama and his administration has tried to convince the American people that trillions of dollars of deficit spending would provide shovel-ready jobs and quickly get our economy going again. Obama’s administration prophesied unemployment would NOT go above 8%. Wasn’t that why he told us the ‘American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009’ had to be passed immediately. Well, where are the jobs? Once again, the results of his Marxist/socialist policies are in, and Obama’s a big failure.
Americans know what stimulates an economy. Raising taxes and spending our way out of debt is not it. President Reagan proved that spending reductions, anti-inflation monetary policy to maintain a strong dollar, cutting tax rates to restore incentives for economic growth and deregulation is the recipe for success. Once the tax rates were lowered from over 70% on the high rate to lower than 30%, government tax revenues actually soared.
Reagan’s policies resulted in the most successful economic experiment in world history. The Reagan recovery officially started in November 1982 and lasted 92 recession-free months. Tax increases in the 1990 budget deal killed the record. In any case, this set a new record for the
longest peacetime expansion ever- the previous being 58 months (source Forbes).
Democrats, once again have shown evidence of what happens when government inserts itself into the American capitalist system. The result is always the private sector stops hiring. In May of 2011, only 54,000 jobs were added in the private sector. Word on the street is that half of them were at McDonalds, one of the many corporate donors to the Democrat Party that Obama blessed with a waiver from the Obamacare requirements that are preventing the rest of the private sector from expanding. Bottom line, companies and businesses don’t feel comfortable expanding when they don’t know how much it will cost in the future to keep those employees based on the heroine-like uncertainty that Obamacare has injected into this economy. Under this current Administration there is no future for American manufacturing to exist
or thrive in the United States. Expect more sluggishness.
A recent example was in the State of South Carolina where Democrat supported Union thugs and the National Labor Relations Board filed a suit against Boeing building a manufacturing facility in the state, because the unions in Washington state might cry. The State of South Carolina is a “right to work state” which means Boeing employees could choose to join or not join a union in South Carolina. Right now as it stands there will be no Boeing facility located in South Carolina even though the plant has been built and employees had been hired. It is no wonder why American companies move their manufacturing to China, India and Mexico. It is time Democrats and RINO’s remember The heart of America is made of tax paying families and small businesses and stop flogging the worn-out entrepreneurial spirit and incentivize businesses, large and small, to open, build and manufacture in the USA so we can get American families back to work.
We have seen over the last few administrations, how America has further forsaken sound Biblical principles and God’s design for an economy and Obama has only doubled down on failed polices and now the whole world is watching as America self-implodes. Instead of fixing the spending problem, the Obama administration continues finding more and more ways to treat the American taxpayer like a broken ATM that he can’t stop kicking.
Congressman Tom Price also blasted Obama and his party last week for their demagoguery. Price said: “What is worse, they have chosen to demagogue the efforts of House Republicans to address the long-term drivers of our debt.” He went on to say: “House Republicans are asking our Democrat colleagues to work with us on solutions that break down barriers to free enterprise and lift the crushing burden of debt that threatens America’s future prosperity. It is not too late to act and get this economy moving again.”
Chaplain Kreutz also had this to say, “Conservatism works every time it is tried. All we have to do is go back to what works and then build on that. These politicians do not seem to understand that building on failure only results is more failure. Sometimes taking two steps back puts you ten steps ahead. I am not saying that recovery is going to be easy or even pretty, but it has to happen. We have to let the markets correct themselves without all this incessant government intervention; otherwise we are just putting off the inevitable collapse and making things worse. Lastly, I do give Barack Obama some credit, for successfully taking a bad economy and making it worse. Thanks Barak Hussein Obama.”

ROCHESTER, N.Y. –
The Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York congratulates the United States Navy SEAL Team 6 on the successful capturing and killing of Osama bin Laden on Sunday, May 1, 2011. We humbly thank The CIA, our servicemen and servicewomen for their years of service and sacrifice to protect not only the people of the United States of America, but the people of the entire free world. In addition, we send our gratitude to our military families who have sacrificed so much.
“We are proud to know in the end, it was intelligence-gathering skills combined with the Special Forces that freed the world of a tyrant, and not just unmanned drones,” said Ayesha Kreutz, president of the Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York.
As leader of al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden was responsible for tens of thousands of deaths, from the servicemen and servicewomen who died on the U.S.S. Cole bombing in 2000 to the 300 killed and 5,000 injured in the Nairobi & Dar es Salaam embassy bombings. The list goes on to include the Tunisia synagogue and the Bali nightclub bombings. Of course, the final straw was the killing of nearly 3,000 innocent men, women, and children on Sept. 11, 2001.
“The world of free people, though saddened by the death of a human being and the loss of a soul to Satan, also celebrates justice coming to a mass murderer,” she added. “His death just shows the world that no matter how long it takes, the United States will seek justice. So, I say be wise and rejoice, Proverbs 11:10, Psalm 7:9, Exodus 15:4-5, 2 Kings 9:36-37, and Esther 9:22, and yet we should grieve for his soul, 2 Corinthians 5:20 and 1 Timothy 2:4.”
The Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York also extends eternal gratitude to President George W. Bush for paving the way for this victory. His resolve and leadership are to be commended. We extend a warm thank-you to President Barack Hussein Obama for continuing the operations designed and started by President Bush. We are grateful President Obama did what needed to be done, even though his own party would have rather let Osama bin Laden remain free than allow our own Central Intelligence Agency to use information gathered through the waterboarding of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
“Osama has come to justice, and that is an American victory,” Kreutz said. “We, as a country, said no matter how long it would take, we would stand firm and stand up for our people. Yet, at this time, we must pray for those who are still deceived and must stay vigilant as we recognize that the war on terror is never-ending. Until Jesus returns, we will always have those who wish to destroy us, Galatians 1:8, Psalm 110:1, and Revelation 20:3.”
In the wake of Osama bin Laden’s death, the United States of America is faced with even more questions. Can we bring our troops home now? Can we shackle the Transportation Security Administration? Should we revise the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act?
It is the opinion of the Frederick Douglass Foundation of New York that it is time bring our troops home from Afghanistan and help them heal as we reevaluate the freedoms and liberties we have allowed ourselves to give up in the name of safety.
While we understand the operations in the middle east are important we also think among other things the focus should now turn to things such as securing America’s borders and weeding out the terrorist cells in America. It is the duty of the federal government first and foremost to protect its people. We should seek help from experts, like those in Israel who are experts at profiling and preventing terrorist attacks.
“Make no mistake about it, the United States of America will not tire and will not end our fight on terrorism, but it is time we begin our exit strategy from Afghanistan,” Kreutz said. “God Bless America.”
