Beyond the Rhetoric: Obama Presidential Center – How Black Will It Be? – Part I
So far, the Obama Legacy is surprisingly lacking in Black participation. During his two presidential administrations, Black business participation was on a continuous downward slide. At the end of the George W. Bush’s two administrations, SBA lending to Blacks was approaching 8 percent and Black business participation was similar. When the Obama presidency succeeded George W. Bush the numbers in both categories started to fall from the beginning. Both categories were cruising at the 2 percent level.
Beyond the Rhetoric: African Americans Failed at Our First Wealth Building Opportunity
People are starting to get excited about Congress planning on a new tax structure. Included in this project is the possibility of ending the Estate Tax.

If it reaches a certain amount the Estate Tax will kick in and deprive the heirs of significant inheritance.

Beyond the Rhetoric: The Sexual Revolution: It became a Curse
As I look back I surmise it was a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah. At the time, we were all happy seeking pleasure and dismissing maturity and wisdom. We had lost our religion but were still going to church. It was the late 1960’s. The Vietnam War was going strong and taking a serious toll on our nation. I remember losing some very good friends during that stupid war. Oh, how I wish they were still here. Perhaps the agony of the times brought on this Sexual Revolution.
Beyond the Rhetoric 613: Stop the Whining and please go to WorkUnited Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change – Once Again, we say No!
I guess you can call the scheme the “Make America Weak Act”. That is exactly what the evil doers and the ignorant of the world do when they come together to sell our great nation down the “drain”. Listen! Ain’t nobody going to cause us to fall into an abyss and never come back again. It is like the “crabs in the barrel syndrome”. How foolish they are to think we will become foolish.

Beyond the Rhetoric: Is the Democratic National Committee Evaporating?
There was a time when it seemed that the Democratic National Committee seemed to be invincible. It was the early 1990’s and this new comer from Arkansas, William Jefferson Clinton, was the right guy at the right time. He named a guy who came out of nowhere named Ron Brown to head the DNC. That was unheard of at the time. A Black man running an entire political party. It wasn’t long before everyone knew he had a calling. He led the DNC admirably. He got Bill Clinton elected and then the spell was cast. We had a new breed of national politics.
Let's Hope Trump Emerges From Crisis with New Awareness

The Myths and Lies About Poverty
"The poor will always be with us," say the cynics. No doubt, some will always be wealthier than others. We wouldn't want to live in a society that forced all to be equal.
