Andre Carson, Congressional Black Caucus & Pres. Obama has lost their way.
Should African Origin or American Citizenship Define Political Position?
Buckle up. This is going to be a very rough ride. President Obama’s decision to invade Libya put him in direct opposition of the African Union. Although the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), The Arab League under the auspices of the United Nations (UN) Resolution 1973 gave themselves authority to invade a sovereign country it raises the question for Obama as a black man just who is he really. It not only raises it for President Obama but the question is also raised for Andre Carson and the other Congressional black Caucus members who voted to fund the war, as for black people around the world, especially in America, just who are we really. In raising this question I am pushing the envelope and the tension between national citizenship and our loyalty to the continent of our origin. Are y’all buckled up??
The same question that the soldiers in Egypt had to ask themselves is the same question that is in front of people of African descent. The soldiers in Egypt decided that they were not going to carry out President Mubarak’s order to shoot their own people. We must understand that President Obama with his so-called coalition has shot, bombed, maimed and killed African people. Do we as people of African descent support the killing of our own people????? I say the answer to that question is a resounding NOOOOO!! We should not let our American citizenship cause us to support the killing of our ancestors. It makes no difference that the President has gave the order with Andre Carson and the rest of the Congressional Black Caucus voting to do so. We should resist the order. President Obama along with other black elected officials have lost their way. They are caught up with being American and has bought into this madness so deep that they are willing to kill their own people.
Locally, here in Indianapolis, Andre Carson supported Melina Kennedy, a white woman, in her bid to be mayor over Sam Carson, his uncle, who also ran for the office. Andre, you now have turned your back on your family and your people!! You should have come out in support of Melina after the primary so you didn't publically turn your back on your family. Your grandmother whose congressional seat you now hold would not be happy with you.
This mayor's race has turned Andre against his family, preachers against each other and all for a candidate that still hasn't been clear on what benefit the black community will enjoy from her because of our support. The November 4th, 2011 edition of the Indianapolis Star reports the poll conducted by WISH TV, the local CBS affliate, has found Ballard to be leading Kennedy by 11 percentage points. Melina has had Pastor Jeffry Johnson of Eastern Star church to come out publicly in her support. Pastor Johnson pastors the largest black church here in Indianapolis. If the poll is correct, and Ballard wins, what does this say about Pastor Johnson's influence in the black community? He already has taken a hit when he supported Caroline Mayes over Andre Carson in the previous congressional race. Another loss of his supported candidate can mean he really has no influence of his parishoners after they leave his church service. The stakes for him and the other preachers who have publicly chosen sides in this race is high. However, these preachers' support is not literally killing our people like the support given to the president by Andre and the CBC is doing.
Black people: THIS MADNES HAS GOT TO STOP WHETHER LOCAL OR INTERNATIONAL!! My position is that the chains that are controlling our minds to support actions that are detrimental to our very existence is Christianity. Surely the preachers supporting Ballard or Kennedy heard from the Lord as their support being what God would have them do. Surely. But this opposite support by these pastors make God appear to be conflicted. Who would serve a conflicted God? Or maybe it's not God who is conflicted. These kind of conflicted stances is what happens when people, especially Pastors try to play party politics. Men of God can't get caught up supporting parties!! Pastors are supposed to be custodians of the truth. This is why I run for Congress as an independent. How can I be true to the truth if my position is dictated by the party? Democrats actually historically supported black people's enslavement. Lincoln, who was a republican, supposedly abolished slavery. Legally he did in the south but not in the North. He was president of the North. The South seceded from the Union. So Lincoln wanted for the South what he wouldn't implement in the North. This is the perils of party politics. ENOUNGH!!
I know this is tough to take but we must deal with the truth. The authority is not the truth. The truth is the authority. The truth will set us free. I am running for Congress. Somebody has to tell the truth. I guess its me. I am going to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth SO HELP ME GOD!! Running as an independent I can remain unbought, unbossed, untied from the party line, unleashed to do the will of God and unafraid to stand on God's beloved word.
They are using a distortion of our original religion to make us accept mental slavery and participate in our own physical demise!! We must stop it. We must find our way. I have accepted the charge to sound the bell of alarm. Do not let your American, French, Italian, etc. citizenship confuse you into supporting the bombing, maiming, and killing of your ancestors. Don’t do it!!
The African Union has come out in opposition of the bombing of Libya. In fact, they offered to send five Presidents to go to Khadaffi and negotiate a cease fire. Khadaffi indicated he was willing to sit down with the A.U. and see about coming to terms. Instead of America and its western and Arab allies getting out of the way so Africans can solve Africa’s issues America and its western allies continued to bomb and kill African people along with Khadaffi.
They have stuck President Obama at the front of this diabolical behavior thinking that his black face will calm black people in supporting the killing of our ancestors. We must take on a position as the Egyptian soldiers took. Like they would not fire on there mothers, brothers, and sisters, we cannot support President Obama and his coalition in their killing of our ancestors. Many of the conservative talking heads are surprised that Obama has taken the stance he has taken. They know he decided to go along with the killing of our own people. They did not begin to imagine that Obama wanted to be around white folks so much that he was willing to accept the killing of his own folks. We have to support the African Union and reject the position of President Obama. Our national citizenship should not make us turn our back on the motherland, our dear Africa and her people. UP YOU MIGHTY RACE. ACCOMPLISH WHAT YOU WILL!! I am writing to people of African descent but whites must hear this message also. This playing of whites against people of African descent is a ploy by wealthy, powerful white families to irradicate us both. The race card is their strategy for us to wipe out each other so those of us remaining will be an easy battle for them to take the rest of us out. Occupy Wall Street must become get together on Main street and realize the real target for us little people should be the fat cats running the Federal Reserve Bank and its international conspirators. It is not about whites or blacks surviving at the expense of the other. It is about the poor surviving the greed and power of the ultra wealthy. We must be clear are understand that if you are not a Rockefeller, or a J.P. Morgan etc then you are in the boat with the rest of us. Let's get together. I need your support for my campaign. YOU READY??

You just said Christianity is what is wrong Ajabu. There are a lot more Christians than there are any other religion in Indiana and you expect to win a seat in Congress? Save your campaign money, I can't stand Andre Carson but you will never be able to oust him from his Congressional seat. He has name recognition by being related to Julia and short of a huge scandal, he will hold on to that position until he dies, like Julia did or decides he no longer wants it.
If you run on a anti Christianity platform you would lose anyway. Are you just in need of some attention Ajabu? Is that it? This should be amusing to watch unfold.
Ajabu do you proofread what you write before you post it on here? Cause I was amazed at your open racism with the following statement you posted
Locally, here in Indianapolis, Andre Carson supported Melina Kennedy, a white woman, in her bid to be mayor over Sam Carson, his uncle, who also ran for the office. Andre, you now have turned your back on your family and your people!! You should have come out in support of Melina after the primary so you didn't publically turn your back on your family.
Also Sam Carson does not have the education or the intelligence to run a city. I doubt he would be smart enough to run a Habitrail for hamsters.
Marshal,
See what I mean. Dawn wants my attention. How come she won't respond to you? She wants to get close to me. It is hard to let someone get close when they apparently, and intentionaly misinterpret the facts of my words. This is what I mean. Sam Carson is Andre Carson's uncle. Andre supported Melina Kennedy in the democratic primary at the expense of Sam who also was running. For Andre to do such is to turn his back on his family. The fact of the matter is Melina Kennedy is a white woman. So Andre turned his back on his family to support a white woman. Those are the facts. For some diabolical reason Dawn wants to make my statement of the facts to be racism. It's this deception that drives me away from her. She is not genuine. She calls herself a Christian. It is this type of Christian and Christianity that allow the enslavement of our people. The type of Christianity she is displaying is precisely the problematic religion of which I speak.
The above post clearly states the following:
I am writing to people of African descent but whites must hear this message also.

Clearly I state to white people to not to fall into the trap of racism because it is the tool of the rich to keep us divided. We are going to have to claim the true Christian walk so this devilish Christian talk no longer confuses us. Gyasi, keep doing your research. Your understanding of Dawn will grow and you will know that when you see her to run!! She presently is not someone with whom you would want to associate. Now she can change. I pray that she does wake up and see the true light in the example of Jesus the Christ. This campaign will me interesting and meaningful. When all is said and done I will have won whether I'm congressman or not. With God there is no failure. Thank you Father!!

Dawn(Nunneh) is a prime example of a conservative native american (trying to be caucasian) who has fallen for the age old trick of divide and conquer. The 1% crowd has turned the racism trick into an art form. While they end up with $Trillions of dollars, the 99% of Americans are busy fighting each other with racism being the attraction.
The attack on you by Dawn about your position as a Christian is another divisive tool. Jesus had to correct and condemn Christians in his day. Just because you say you are a Christian doesn't mean you are one. The mistake Dawn keeps making is the same old Satanic spirit of "I am better than" the other person. She sounds like the old Pharisees who declared that they are better than, which is a Satanic spirit.
Dawn needs to deal with her own soul salvation and stop trying to condemn you at every turn. That is why we serve an awesome God who looks on the heart of Reverend Ajabu and not depend on the weak feeble spirit of Dawn to judge reverend.
In closing, remember the number one enemy of the people of America is the conservative American. Look who are claiming to be conservative: the Confederates, the Tea Party, the KKK, the Republicans,the neocons and people like Dawn. The 99% who occupy Washington,DC and are now occupying cities all over the planet will soon realize that it is the CONSERVATIVES who keep the millionaires and billionaires rich. And they have trashed the working and poor people of this nation.
Dawn, you can learn a lot from Reverend if you will let go of the CONSERVATIVE brainwashing that has consumed you.

o I wanted to start my feedback/input/feelings(and these wander off subject - sorry for that I am opinionated as I said and here I ended up on my own topic....again) by quoting you article
"The authority is not the truth. The truth is the authority. The truth will set us free." That is magnificent and I want to build on this quote in a very broad sense. Before I proceed I ask forgive and grant me you tolerance because I am opinionated, ignorant and human and I emphatically add that like you, I too whole heatedly worship God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in Christ(non-denominational) - so in that light we are one.
We know that Revelation is eminent and "many will be deceived" it cannot be determined by any man when this will come to fruition. No one will know that is also made clear to us. We will hear of wars and rumours of wars, families will dissolve(as my own has! - beyond my control however I am not free of blame so I am not like Job in that what has happened to him had had nothing to do with his wrongdoings).
Now this country's Government is a lost cause where morality and brotherhood, freedom, love ad . The media has by and large become the tool of only a few and is being used. I don't accuse anyone of being responsible for this but somebody is.
One of my staunch positions, this I will not hold as opinion it is fact. Gay marriage is a blatant example of evils hold on American actions via the media. How can anyone place law in the position of such a decisions even more-so -HOW can anyone tolerate this being submitted for discussion. Who ever would be party to having this debated is a fool and obviously they too have been deceived if they allow it to be open to consideration. However this climbing toward omnipotence began back at a point where government claimed control over what is now marriage by their definition. I don't know what role ought be the limit over matrimony but it is obvious it cannot order that people accept their governments ordering them to in any way tolerate taking that much control.
Where did this idea come to be regarded as a genuine issue worthy consideration ... the media! would you consider stopping on a corner to listen to somebody talking about "Gay's marrying? I am assume that like me you would assume them fanatical and move on about your business(at least I hope you would). Yet over and over, again and again this topic came into my life as needing discussion. I got up and turned my TV off
rather than hear such idiocy - however it was the TV I turned off. There was more than merely a TV "show" to turn off but I simply brushed that off as "not my problem".
Now I want to look at the attention I personally have offered throughout most of my life to an object. I have watched TV with more of my energy then I have invested into playing with my friends and the same times that I would have spent playing were those I devoted to watching TV so in that regard TV was Davids best friend. When I chose to let this friend occupy completely my thoughts I had no control over what we played and if I wanted to keep having fun I need at times permit what I didn't like, what I wouldn't have thought to enter my imagination because he had control in that department.
I want you to consider here sitcoms "bewitched" or "I dream of genie", who would have gotten such an idea - it wasn't from God that's obvious. I forfeited something without even knowing I was considering such nonsense as being something good?(isn't that what some witches were in "bewitched", for that matter in the "wizard of Oz"!(it wasn't real anyway). evil comes into our lives wherever, whenever, however and by whatever means it finds opportune and it is very good at getting "in" an we know it has only ultimate goal.
This is just a tiny insight/opinion by one man. I wish I were a black man here in America for the bond shared by them is admirable and certainly irregardless of its etiology and I do not think the late Abe Lincoln cared about slavery - it wasn't his problem. Mr Lincoln did however have a vested interest in what keeping control over the enormous resources those states that were free to secede if they voted to. I think that is why slavery became a call to arms had the opportunity to read through a pile of letters mailed to a great grandfather of mine by his son, John K. Doolittle who volunteered. he marched to Washington DC from his home in Connecticut in 1861 without the boot or uniform. when he got to Washington he saw his first black man and enthusiastically announced he was here to set his people free, that man turned said seriously(as John shared his dismay) "go back where you've come from, we don't want to be free? At that time DURING that war the unions capital was still slave territory! Obviously there were more reasons than freedom for the slaves being at stake. Apparently John wrongly believed his cause was simply freedom?
{he died in a makeshift hospital in Cincinnati 10 days after he was shot in the battle at Antietam creek - he laid on that Battle field for 3 days before he was attended to - this is recorded in the last letter to his father written by a cousin, a colonel who went to his side having of his injury wrote the last letter to Johns father, Doolittle.)
I could ramble on here and there for some time on this subject but I am tired of writing just now - don't get me wrong, I love to share with you but for the moment, let this suffice.
I want to ask about this Iraq quagmire, do you think America really set out to restore power of Kuwait's ruling, royal family? that is what I assumed when I let my friend change rules I had while he played for me.

LOVE U BACK!!!
YOUR 'FRIEND',
TONY
I am almost so uncontrolled by laughter to ask this question. But here's goes anyway. Tony who are you? The people I know named Tony would never greet me as you have. In fact, no one I know would greet me as you have. Help me to remember. LOL!!
