Longtime Ben Carson aide Armstrong Williams participated in a panel at the National Action Network Convention today and ended up getting booed.
The panel was moderated by Al Sharpton, head of the National Action Network, and featured Williams, John Podesta, Omarosa, Lawrence O’Donnell, and others to talk about the 2016 election.
Williams said, “We sit here, you hear the race speeches, because they feel that’s what you want to hear today. Everything in America is not always about race.”
He was promptly booed.
A little later on, there were hisses in the audience as he trashed Hillary Clinton (before she was scheduled to speak there) and declared, “Do not allow the Clintons and the establishment to waltz in here and waive their hand and everything is okay! Let them earn your vote!”
“This is a business!” he cried. “They’ll say whatever they need to say and do whatever they need to do to get elected!”
All them old negroes in the crowd were like...

But for real, he speaks the truth. Nobody cares about the truth tho. Why believe the truth when the lie is more entertaining. And ? loved to be entertained

Lol @ Lawrence smiling.

He actually deserved to be applauded
-
I know how he feels when i say similar ? on this forum you houses ? flag me... we need a political revolution in the black community in which we move away from leftism and move toward the center right
-
I'm really concerned with y'all if you actually watch you video and disagree...
The point.. Let the politicians EARN your vote... -

Center bruh...Moderate..there is nothing purely "right" that is good -
Admittedly, there was a kernel of truth in his statement:
“Do not allow the Clintons and the establishment to waltz in here and waive their hand and everything is okay! Let them earn your vote!"
I agree, nonetheless Armstrong Williams is a well documented shucking & jiving house ? , so I'm not surprised nor care that he didn't receive a standing ovation for his captain obvious statement centered around an appeal to emotion.

You already know he probably gonna talk about it on his show later tonite. Lol -
Everything is not always about race...its true....but the phrase is often used to dismiss instances that are clearly about race.

It's sad because after the smoke clears, Hilary is getting that nomination. All this backlash and ? that these candidates are bringing to the table, we all know that Clinton got this. I can't wait till we finally figure out who's getting the party nominations so we can stop with all this extra ? that has nothing to do with being President.

Armstrong been a ? ..ever since i remember ? him

If Dr Umar Johnson, Sa Neter, or someone else said everyone would have received it.

Great message, from a flawed messenger.
"Billiary" Clinton tiptoeing in black churches, hanging around Trayvon & Michael Brown's mom for "social grievance cred."
Begging for votes from all them old church ladies with them *big hats.*
Her & Bill look like wax mummies, looking to feed off simple-minded knee-grows, who can't seem to get off the Democratic plantation.
