Then-presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) chats with some New York-area African-American leaders Jan. 14, 2008, in New York City.

If not Hillary, then who? Everybody knows the Dems have no backup for the 2016 presidential election. On Nov. 4, Democratic control of the U.S. Senate went down, along with Democratic office holders across the nation.

Meanwhile Hillary Clinton is riding high. With a lame-duck president and outsider status in Washington, keeping the White House is he

“The only one talking about that (impeachment) are Democrats and they ones doing it because they want to m

The West View News ran this op-ed using an offensive word to describe President Obama (West View News)

A local paper is making national headlines thanks to a questionable word choice in one of its own news headlines.

The West View News, a monthly paper in New York’s West Village with a circulation of around 20,000, ran an op-ed from author James Lincoln Collier titled “N—-r in the White House.”

If the headline wasn’t strange and shocking enough, the New York Post reports that the op-ed is act

“I considered letting Sherman up here to the podium and giving him the mic,” Obama said Wednesday as

Fred Luter and Barack Obama share historical distinctions as African Americans' first Southern Baptist Convention and U.S. presidents, respectively, but on the major political-moral issue of gay marriage they are on opposite sides - a disagreement driven by Luter's commitment to the Bible.
"I believe that nothing, nothing can be politically right if it's biblically wrong," Luter said July 10 in an interview with Florida Baptist Witness.
"The Word of God says marriage is between one man an

About two hours after declaring his support for same-sex marriage last week, President Obama gathered eight or so African-American ministers on a conference call to explain himself. He had struggled with the decision, he said, but had come to believe it was the right one.
 
The ministers, though, were not all as enthusiastic. A vocal few made it clear that the president's stand on gay marriage might make it difficult for them to support his re-election.
 
"They were wrestling with their abilit

A bid to secure a posthumous presidential pardon for Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jamaica's first national hero, has been rejected out of hand by the Barack Obama White House in Washington.

But the Administration's rejection is unlikely to end the campaign in and out of the United States, Jamaica and elsewhere to clear the name of the iconic figure. 
Garvey, who led the greatest mass movement of Blacks in the United States in the first half of the 20th century and is often credited by historians and
