An Open Letter to Rep. Cynthia McKinney on the Upcoming Primary Election by Andrew McIntosh

Dear Cynthia:

Like many black Americans, I hope that you will be victorious on August 20 in the primary election to be the Democratic candidate for Georgia's Fourth Congressional District. I am especially concerned for you in light of the success of non-black interests in defeating your congressional colleague, Earl Hilliard, in Alabama's primary election in June. The same outsiders who flooded Hilliard's congressional district with money and propaganda on behalf of the their puppet candidate, Arthur Davis, are doing the same thing for your opponent, Denise Majette. Emboldened by their success in Alabama and the lack of a coordinated retaliatory response by the black community, these outsiders are now targeting you.

Please understand, Cynthia, that your being targeted is not simply a matter of the Jewish lobby being upset with you because of your votes on the Middle East. The conspiracy against you - and that's exactly what this is - is far more involved and far more sinister. The sad truth is that many Democratic Party officials who should be standing by you (especially in view of your long and loyal service to the party) are quietly conniving at Denise Majette's illegitimate challenge and the behavior of the outsiders who are pulling her strings. Worse yet, there are party officers who are actively aiding and abetting Majette in her attempt to defeat you. This is especially true of the "centrist" (i.e., crypto-conservative) Democrats of the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC).

[. . .] I wish you the best of luck, Cynthia, and I hope to see you continue your political career for many years to come. The black community needs leaders like you. Black America hasn't had a bold and audacious congressman like you since the days of Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. As Adam used to say: "Keep the faith, baby; keep the faith!"

Necessarily.

Given the subject matter, perhaps that title isn't the best choice.

And I'd heard DLC actually stood for Democrats for the Leisure Class. Stupid News from Neptune.

Since WEFT doesn't stream anymore due to licensing fee issues (mutter mutter mutter), you can get a taste in the column of the same title, by show co-host Carl Estabrook, in CU Cityview. The existence of which I was unaware of until about two minutes ago.
