On Thursday, Mitt Romney began a quiet push for African-American voters by visiting Philadelphia, where where he was met with boos and cries of "Get Out, Mitt, Get Out". One citizen was actually offended that Mitt would even be in her neighborhood. "It's not appreciated here", Madeline G. Dunn, 78, stated. "It's absolutely denigrating for him to come in here and speak his garbage."
What Mitt needs to understand is that African-American voters have a long memory. We remember how you have been responsible for thousands of Americans losing their jobs while you were at Bain Capital. We remember how you (and your GOP friends) have lead the push to take away our civil rights. We remember how you (and your GOP friends) have and are attacking women's rights.
What you have to realize is that, for African-Americans, it is not about race. It is about trust! African-Americans don't trust you! We don't trust the GOP! We know that before this presidential race is over, you will make a statement about how you have no intention of helping the poor, women or minorities because we know that you can not upset your base supporters, the super Conservatives in the country.
Now this doesn't make us hate you nor does it make you a bad person. It just makes you a person that we can not and must not elect to the highest office in the land. I implore all African-Americans, women, other minorites to not fall for the words coming from this GOP candidate! Our welfare, our lives, our childrens' future depend on make the correct choice in November.
