You Cannot Believe the Media’s Interpretation of Polling Data. It May Not Be So Close

This is my last post until after the election. There isn’t much new to say, so let me summarize my take on the data I follow. I don’t rely on the mainstream news media or listen to local news channels. These sources simply report on superficial top-line numbers without doing much analysis. I follow sourcesContinue reading “You Cannot Believe the Media’s Interpretation of Polling Data. It May Not Be So Close”

There is A Sinister Plan Behind The Scenes

I have a different perspective on the 2024 election as the voting phase concludes. As I look at the reports of the early voting surges, I hear about the effectiveness of the Harris/Walz ground game in turning out the vote. I am also hearing about a virtually non-existent ground game for the Trump/Vance campaign headedContinue reading “There is A Sinister Plan Behind The Scenes”

It’s Important to Know Who Funds Your Information Sources

As we head toward the final days of campaigning for the 2024 Presidential, Congressional, and Senatorial elections, a lot is going on. Let’s be clear, the US legacy media has severely failed the general voting public. They have allowed Donald Trump and his team to spread lies and disinformation in ways that will be impossibleContinue reading “It’s Important to Know Who Funds Your Information Sources”

The Important Part about Project 25 is the Number 25 or 25th

It is not lost on very serious political observers that Trump is just phoning it in. He knows he cannot win this election by conventional means. The polls had him hopeful that he could have defeated Joe Biden. However, once Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Kamala Harris, Trump immediately understood his mostContinue reading “The Important Part about Project 25 is the Number 25 or 25th”

It’s Time To Wake Up and Show Up

I have been monitoring various blogs, websites, and other sources of information. I have moved away from traditional and cable news outlets. When they started airing Trumps so-called press conferences in their entirety in 2015, I knew there had to be alternative avenues. This election cycle we learned that the CEOs of all the majorContinue reading “It’s Time To Wake Up and Show Up”

Now We Need To Be Strategic Planners Not Impotent Reactors

This is an update to my recent post. First, I want to urge Black voters, especially Gen X and Gen Z voters, to understand that it’s not the Democratic Party that is pushing for President Biden to leave the race. It is important to make this distinction because we can use this moment strategically. IfContinue reading “Now We Need To Be Strategic Planners Not Impotent Reactors”

You Gotta Know Who’s Selling the Okie Doke!

I am not usually the guy who uses sport analogies but as far as the November elections go, this will be the best way to understand my thinking. Most non-racquet sports are broken down into 4 quarters. We’re at the conclusion of the 1st half (the first two quarters). It is basically halftime. Both teams,Continue reading “You Gotta Know Who’s Selling the Okie Doke!”

While Y’all Asking What You Gonna Do For Me, They Are Playing You

I want to address a couple of current issues in the news. The first issue is reporting that polling indicates that more Black voters are leaning away from Biden and thinking of not voting in November. The other set of polling suggests that more younger Black men may vote for Trump in November. The nextContinue reading “While Y’all Asking What You Gonna Do For Me, They Are Playing You”
