Question Clinton Tribute

Did anyone watch the NAACP awards? What'd yall think about that tribute to Clinton? I mean he got a presidential award from the NAACP!! He's a humble man, I dig him, even though he's lacking in the integrity area :-(

Very good question, and I agree with you on him not having any integrity. I might sound like a broken record on this subject but I really don't believe that he deserved the award. Just my humble opinion.

I believe that he was a good president, the best we have had in my lifetime, but I really fail to see the affection that most black folks feel for him. I cringe when I hear folks talk about him being the first black president and all. He is not black and while I believe that he does have a geniune and heartfelt feeling about racism and the things that went on and continue to go on, I know that when it suites his own personal and politcal gains, he will drop us like a bad habit.

He has shown that with people close to him, that he is willing to let his friends drift in the wind to suite his own needs.

I mean when he gets in trouble, he comes a running back to us. I for one was offended when he settled in Harlem. I just believe that we should start tying our loyalty to action.

Ok, I will get off of my soap box now.
