Ask Yourself These Questions? 1. Is it racist to ask for a black leader to help a black citizen? 2. Should we all turn our backs on injustice for fear of being called a racist or even worse? Why am I considered a racist? I have stood next to and called my friend what some whites would call the most hated black man in america.... Ring any bells? You can call me a lot of things but racist is not one. I will call you my friend and turn the other cheek! Your Friend, Norm

Peace and Blessings. I think this thing with Sarah Palin is disgusting and most women should feel disrespected at Mccain playing the Gender card. What would this GOP say if it the shoe was on the other foot and it was Obama. They would be all over him like white on rice. So lets give some equal opportunity to Mccain and his both warmongers. Please check out our last couple of shows on Sarah Palin and the unknown facts about her and her red neck crew. How about her and husband being part of an organization that had only white members only and was fighting for separate soverenty from the USA. Whose talking about that? Its all on record. Man if Obama had been part of the black panthers or any group that could be assumed separatist from US. This is bullshit. Sarah Palin and her family are unamerican red necks.

What kooky crapola on here - and it helps that Boston Red misspells everything. Why must everything be about race when it comes to black militants? Because they have no answers to the problems to plague them. Do us all a favor - take responsibility for your own life. The bars on your windows aren't there to keep the white man out...

    Remembering Howard Zinn 1922 – 2010

    Howard Zinn was an American historian, author, political activist, playwright and public intellectual. Zinn was Professor of History at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia from 1956 to 1963(a historially African-American college). Later he was Professor of Political Science, Boston University from 1964 to 1988. One of his major publications was a A People's History of the United States. Bob Herbert wrote: Mr. Zinn was often taken to task for peeling back the rosy veneer of much of American history to reveal sordid realities that had remained hidden for too long. [...] What was so radical about believing that workers should get a fair shake on the job, that corporations have too much power over our lives and much too much influence with the government, that wars are so murderously destructive that alternatives to warfare should be found, that blacks and other racial and ethnic minorities should have the same rights as whites, that the interests of powerful political leaders and corporate elites are not the same as those of ordinary people who are struggling from week to week to make ends meet?(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia). Jerry Pippin and Bostonred discuss Dr. Zinn's take on the Obama election in 2008,third parties and the 9/11 Movement.

Extras

Bad Week For Democracy by Jerry Pippin Three things happened within a span of 72 hours or less. In today's cyberspace age that is not unusual, that events seem to be piled upon each other, but this was an especially bad week and I am hard pressed to put them in the proper order of which is the most devastating to Lady Liberty and the American Dream. I guess it would have to be today's Supreme court ruling laying aside any rights for government to police spending in election campaigns. This one dovetails with my number two bad week listing, but more about that in a moment. Lets talk about the effects of today's 5-4 Supreme Court decision. Basically it is saying that corporations are people and therefore they can be controlled as people can in the US by the constitution. Now on the face of that ruling, it does not seem so bad. But one of the basic problems with American Business today in my opinion is exactly that premise. Corporations are treated as a person in the eyes of the law. Think about this for a moment, we all in business have hidden behind the corporate shield of protection and on the face of it that is good but there is the law of unintended consequences- Simply put, when a corporation breaks the law what does law enforcement and courts do, they don't jail anyone the simply fine them and what does the corporation do, it does what it does naturally, passes those cost on to the consumer so where is the pressure to stop wrong doing by a corporation? Simply put, there is none. Now lets simply go to what is wrong with American Politics today. It takes money to win an election and in today's multi media world, it takes big bucks. So what do politicians do, they naturally rule in favor of those who are giving them the big bucks to win elections. Everyone knows this is the problem in American Politics. Do you know any candidate that is poor? None or damn few for sure are poor or even just moderately middle income. So what does logic tell you, it tells you simply that a rich man or woman will rule in favor of their status and why not. How did political campaigns get so expensive. A simple answer every one knows but it needs to be repeated. The media no longer has dictates on rates charged to political candidates. In our business, broadcasting, we sell what is avails, it means simply that a spot on 60 minutes is many times more than a spot on the Jerry Pippin Show..why because of the audience and availability. So when I first started in broadcasting there was a rule that politicians got the lowest rate you had charged over the previous year, but that meant we could put those commercials in unsold positions and politicians wanted that spot in 60 minutes not on some late late or early or mid day show time. So they did away with that requirements to the cheers of the media folks, that meant, we could charge whatever we wanted, what the traffic would bare for a political spot. Politician program, forget it, we could charge triple or more what we normally got for an info commercial. Same things applied to newspapers and magazines and billboards, position or avails was the way to sell advertising. I do it every day. It creates a higher price, a bigger value for the slot. So today 's Supreme Court ruling simply created dreams of dollar signs in the eyes of the media. smiles for politicians in key states on key issues involving money such as health care and for the corporate boys, man what a gift, now we can just buy anybody we want, no legal restrictions and when you put a lot of money behind a candidate you are in effect buying that vote. Now lets dove tail this into set back number two for today: Air America shut down. No chapter 11 bankruptcy here, they just simply could not afford to continue to operate. Why? Its a downturn market for advertising, no one has been doing any business for sometime and those potential advertisers for progressive talk shows was pretty slim anyway. Those guys and gals in front of that microphone were talking about the evils of privatization in government, that turned off a huge number of potential clients, they were talking about Medicare for all instead of payments to health insurance companies and insurance agents, so that group is not going to advertise, and on and on. So no wonder these liberals can't make a station run, who are they going to sell their advertising too? There is an exception to this previous paragraph, MSNBC has turned to the left and they are getting higher ratings that ever and selling some ads to boot, but wait, Cable TV has not been captured completely by what happened to talk radio. Simply put with 50 or more radio stations to choose from almost anywhere in the country, conservative talk radio fell into good times, how and why? Simply because 30 per of the total audience is probably conservative or very conservative, and if you can get a third of that audience you have 10 per cent of the listeners and figure it out, if you have 50 stations 2 per cent would be average audience, so you have five times the audience of the hip hop guy. MSNBC captured a middle of the road audience because even though Fox has gained the reputation as the network of record for conservatives, not everyone in TV audiences had become polarized, so they jagged to left just in time. Now we get to the third reason it was a bad week for the American Dream of Democracy and that was the Massachusetts election. Health Care has been the mantra for the Obama landslide and we have watched him give away the store to the status quo of for pay hospitals, insurance companies and the like. We could feel what was going to happen in Massachusetts. It was the way politics work. You have a liberal Senator like Ted Kennedy pushing for universal health care all his life and he dies. The seat is open and a guy who says he doesn't think the federal government belongs in health care is elected. Why? Only 6 per cent of the voters according to a recognized poll thought health care was a big issue where it runs anywhere from 60 to 80 per cent nationally. It is pretty simple if you think about it. Massachusetts has mandated universal health care already, so naturally it wasn't a big deal. But is a very big deal and once again we get to why? Because those out touch well today rich men and women we put in office have gotten the wrong idea. Instead of doing what is right and giving Medicare to everyone, it has worked wonderfully well for 40 years, what more of a lesson in success do you need, those thunderheads in Washington think they have to let the status quo let thousands die every month because they have no medial help win even more concessions. In fact, Speaker Polosi today hinted that it may be over for health care..oh,the other thing they did wrong is they gave into the Republicans on the name of the issue, its not health care, we are talking about insurance and medical reform. So this is why I say it was a devastating week for the people, the common man as they say. Why well when corporations and big business can make the laws, force the enforcers to do it they want, then the common guy has lost the battle. We are entering into a new business model here in America. It was tried before, we fought a war against it and now we are doing it. When corporations and government collude to run a country, it is called Fascism and we have it. I have always thought the American dream would overcome all adversity, but now I am not so sure. The 21st Century is looking like a not so brave new world after all.
