He was elected as an idealistic Korean War hero, who campaigned against a corrupt politician -- Adam Clayton Powell Jr. And now, ironically, he has become more corrupt than the man he defeated. He remains because he is black, in a black district. Voting based on skin color is NEVER a good idea. Show me a city with a black mayor, a black police chief and a black superintendent of schools, and I'll show you a city where blacks live in the WORST of circumstances.Lone Rangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278448546799358207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-31384031235191701502010-11-23T11:08:33.088-05:002010-11-23T11:08:33.088-05:00Joe/Scotty:

I am old enough to recall that Rangel ran as the reformer against scandal plagued Adam Clayton Powell, who was living large off the public dime, not showing up for votes, etc.<br /><br />This garbage always comes full circle, doesn't it? The constituency that puts scum like Powell and Rangel in charge have no hope.<br /><br />Term limits in their case will just elevate the number of rascals that come and go, that's all.Freddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778430453468720627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-19003560005523670472010-11-23T10:11:57.447-05:002010-11-23T10:11:57.447-05:00Scotty: I think term limits are an important part ...Scotty: I think term limits are an important part of the answer to career politicians and the problems they invoke on us.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09693381971064363612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-31042868170750628252010-11-23T10:02:29.579-05:002010-11-23T10:02:29.579-05:00"Fred: What do we do about the people who kee..."Fred: What do we do about the people who keep electing these pieces of scum?"<br /><br />There was a time when I was against term limits.
