Cornel West is Duplicated In Front of Ghetto Liquor Stores Everyday

I've seen Jive Turkeys who look, act and even phony talk like Cornel West sitting on liquor store sills, drinking malt liquor from a can wrapped in a paper bag. They croak their smart talking and jiving just as he does to anyone passing by.

Cornel West: Trump Will Get as Many Black Votes as ‘Negroes in the National Hockey League’

By Nicholas Ballasy September 17, 2016

WASHINGTON – Dr. Cornel West told PJM that he appreciates Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s outreach to African-Americans, but predicted the billionaire businessman would ultimately receive as many African-American votes as there are “Negroes in the National Hockey League.”
West said he disagreed with Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton saying half of Trump’s supporters belong in a “basket of deplorables” and some were “irredeemable,” and agreed with her decision to apologize for the “half” part.
“I don’t like comments like that — that any person is thoroughly irredeemable. I mean, maybe it’s because I’ve got a Christian sensibility. We’ve all got gangster proclivities and all of us have the possibility of being transformed and changed, but I don’t like the idea of a huge slice of America just irredeemable. If they’re xenophobic, you call them xenophobic, but they can change. You know, George Wallace was an exemplary white supremacist; he changed,” West said following a press conference Thursday at the National Press Club, where he joined a group of African-American pilots to call on the Department of Justice and Congress to investigate United Airlines’ treatment of minorities.
