| DNC Chair Favorite Keith Ellison Supports Bill To ‘Study Reparation Proposals' |
| 2016-11-16 |
| [Daily Caller] Rep. Keith Ellison of Minnesota is making headlines after announcing his bid for chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Ellison already has strong support from Sens. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Harry Reid. Some have said Ellison’s own identity as an African-American and a Muslim would be a strong statement for the Democratic Party under the upcoming Donald Trump administration. He previously advocated for, and is reportedly a "passionate supporter" of H.R. 40: Commission to Study Reparation Proposals for African-Americans Act, co-sponsored by Michigan Rep. John Coyners Jr. Con't. |

| #8 Now, now. This is just one patch in the quilt as Jesse Jackson once said. They need all of these little patches to make a quilt big enough for them to get back into power. You got Planned Parenthood, Dreamers, marijuana, transgender bathrooms, $15 minimum wage, etc, etc. That's how you make a big tent, folks. You tell everybody they can have whatever they want no matter how much it costs or how utterly ridiculous it is. |

| #6 No living black has been a slave (other than to criminal activity), but there are living whites who have. |

| #5 I'm all in favor of any person receiving reparations if they can be shown to have been held in slavery in the US prior to the end of the Civil War. |

| #4 Hopefully this shit nevers happens. Because if it does it will be a continual gravy train of cash that will accomplish nothing. Each new genration it will be, "hey, where's my money!" |

| #3 Why not repay in kind. Make liberals slaves for anyone who wants one. Or two. Or ten. |

| #2 The Democratic Party continues its leftward drift. These arrogant cocksuckers are impervious to learning after receiving their Ivy League degrees, thinking they know everything and refusing to adapt to the lessons the voters taught them. Good luck, Muslim asshole, enjoy your irrelevance. |

| #1 Hopefully H.R. 40 will run parallel Congressman Hank Johnson's Guam capsize study. Both issues must be sorted out. |
