  1. First woman and person of color to be VP. First Black woman on the Supreme Court. First Black woman on the board of the Federal Reserve. I am not a Biden fan and I think the Democrats are a weak, though very decent, party but you can't say the Democrats and Biden have not done their part. I am not mad at all at the strides the Democrats have taken this cycle.

  2. You cannot be a Christian and vote for the Democrats. Jesus didn't promote abortion, sodomy and anti white laws.

  3. Amen! I'll be voting!

  4. Al sharpton my opinion cancer to “humanity”. Mythological pawn

  5. We as humans… should be responsible for each other 😌

  6. Please the Bible says Jesus got angry. But it was A righteous anger. So why can't we as black people express our righteous anger and reject the Democrats for their neglect of the black and brown community.

  7. Please. Democrats should give the party A wake up call. Black people get nothing for our vote.

  8. We need to do a March Where if they want our votes they sign contractual promises. And the party that signs gets our votes, if these church leaders have been leading us for all this time with dems, they are the problem. Don’t confuse Obama with being direct either, If anybody gives its more direct I’ll give it to the republicans for that. Dems are definitely foxes.

  9. Black people don't go to church no more.
    That's old..

  10. I'm going to stop voting. I will start voting again for the party that gets us reparations

  11. The Democrats have failed, But there is no other option the only way to victory is too clean house.freash faces .

  12. More power to these shepherds. May God bless their efforts to raise up the downtrodden. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.

  13. I don't feel sorry for them, but it's kind of a shame for (R)'s. If they would give up Reagaonomics and apologize for betraying our country, I think a LOT of (D)"s would convert. But then again, without the Trumpism/traitorism and Reaganomics, there is no Republican party.

    There just simply is NO alternative.

  14. make no mistake even if you are part of the black church and you’re conservative and you’re against abortion, you better believe that white conservatives are coming for you. when they get done turning over all those supreme Court rulings, you as a black person are gonna be real uncomfortable. this is about your freedom you can worry about having some kind of conservative ethics later.
    These people are interested in putting you in a situation of poverty and disenfranchisement in perpetuity.

  15. This GOV isn't for ANY OF US.. A WELL INFORMED PUBLIC NEEDS NO GOVERNMENT.. THEY LIE TO CONTROL US. WE SHOULD ALL BE HEALTHY, WEALTHY AND FREE . LEARN THE REAL TRUTH

  16. The black Americans who serve God will break away from the democrats and change how they vote in 2024 to save our country from the zombified communist 'democrat' party. It's not a white man's country. It's an American's country. And NOBODY runs to the NUTCASES to fix their problems. God help us all.

  17. David and Joseph were Israelites through the lineage of Abraham Isaac and Jacob! These political puppets are not of our people and we shouldn’t be voting for them at all!

  18. And Rev Lewis you’re a god damned demon too!

  19. Black church? Spirit has no skin color, the material aspect of humanity (the flesh) has skin color.

  20. love the hypocrisy of my people. we can have black churches and black colleges and when the whites want to do the same we scream racism.

  21. Correction: anyone who supports the Democratic party is a tool.

  22. Biggest news story in American history not being covered by any media? Something stinks!!!

  23. Fighting 7.5% inflation (more like 15%) with a 1% Fed funds interest rate is like stopping a forest fire with a bucket of water. Folks prepare accordingly. Make investment in other not to depend on the government for funds

  24. There is no doubt Vladimir Putin is a tyrant , and he can also be compared to Trump and the GOP that is full of tyrants , how far is the GOP willing to go , in destroying our democracy and the woman's right to choose , they're a disgrace to themselves and to our country………………….

  25. The Church should not be involved in politics. The constitution of the US 14th AQqmendment. "Congress shall makes no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the excerise thereof". If any one in the church even mention anything about supporting political candidates, they are avocating support for an ideaology of mans', which is not spreading the word of GOD. Jesus threw the money changers out of the church and said he will do it again. Lord; the money changers are back, please come run them out.

  26. More Maga blacks than dem blacks wake up it ain't 1980

  27. Meanwhile Biden and his administration are failing!

  28. A legenda di LIKESEX.Uno snowquen hè u mo idolu. Hè a persona chì aspiru à essem, hè a mo luce di ghjornu

  29. Republicans ABORTIONS
    Guys’ll be paying child support forever.
    Or the RED STATE taxpayers fending off street urchins aka CHILD GANGS?

  30. Democrats think they still own those folks.
    Sad.
