The report expressed particular concern about widespread grassroots support for the party, noting that “a recent poll indicates that approximately 25 percent of the black population has a great respect for the BPP, including 43 percent of blacks under 21 years of age.” The report also emphasized the large 150,000 weekly circulation of the Panther newspaper, 189 speaking engagements on college campuses in 1969, strong support from the Students for a Democratic Society and other “New Left” groups, the appeal of the Black Panthers to Blacks in the military, and the Party's international support from students in Europe, guerrilla movements in the Middle East, and the governments of Cuba, North Korea, and Algeria.” Black Against Empire (The History and Politics of the Black Panther Party- Joshua Bloom, UCLA – Jan 2013) http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/266927 Collapse this posthttp://www.twitpic.com/c5q549

It came just after 11 pm, when he heard a TV network declare Obama the winner in Ohio. This was not just any network, but Fox TV, the Republican Party's official propaganda machine! Rove, who is a rabidly-partisan GOP hit man, also doubles as a Fox commentator. (That network has simply amputated the word “conflict” from the ethical concept of conflict-of-interest.
