More Business Lessons from Politics
I discover in the business world, many white business leaders would say or do anything to win. The truth often times did not matter. It was always a shock to me because I was taught since I was a little boy, “Jimmy you can’t get away with what the white boys can.”
Today, all over America, white Pundits are gushing about a phenom in politics.A woman who 3 years ago was mayor of a village of 7900 people. What a great story; A cute, vintage 70’s hairstyle,part of a political group that wanted to secede from the Union, husband with DUI arrest,new baby with special needs, rumors of affairs, and a pregnant teenage daughter, this is a Republican leader for the ages.The party that preaches family values, is stressing this perhaps somewhat dysfunctional family, by having wife and mom save the day.
The Republican speeches were lies, lies, lies Can you imagine if Barack did not have a almost perfect family story. It was sicking to see this partisan party overlook all the issues this candidate has to try and keep the black man out of the white house.
Here is a good article by Mary Mitchell, on McCain’s pick for VP
If you thought the playing field was level, and you are in business, watch and see what the Republican Party, aka White working class fear monger party, gets away with. Blackinbusiness, you cannot get away with the things white business does or white politics. Keep Hope alive.
One growth experience we discovered, giving a good motivational upbeat speech is indeed a good thing.Up until last night, you would have thought being able to communicate well was unbecoming. In closing, this really makes me wonder about the judgment of McCain, to select a VP running mate with so much drama and inexperience in her life. How do you like our potential heart beat away from being President. I do not get it!

The same formula holds: if non-union, we’re the last hired, first fired, and have to be twice as good to get half the credit as someone half as good who gets twice the credit. No wonder so many of our kids give up before they’re old enough to buy cigarettes.
