Renowned Black Activist Pushes Back Against BLM, Releases Pro-Trump Victory Song & Video BLACK AUTHOR/PERFORMER AVAILABLE: Lloyd Marcus, performer of the Trump Train 2020 Video for Re-Election and author of Confessions of a Black Conservative: How the Left Has Shattered the Dreams of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Black America A nationally-recognized Black conservative activist is pushing back against Black Lives Matter (BLM). Lloyd Marcus, patriotic singer, author, and self-titled “Unhyphenated American,” is using his media platform to boldly refute BLM's radical leftist policies to transform America. A renowned patriotic singer and author, Marcus performed his original, “American Tea Party Anthem” at over 500 conservative rallies and events across America. Marcus granted interviews to Fox News, News Max, CNN and numerous other media platforms. The UK Guardian recognized Marcus as “the most prominent African American of the Tea Party Movement.” Marcus rallied Trump supporters across America to perform in his energizing “Trump Train 2020” song. WATCH: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKFnDZtzl0c&feature=youtu.be WEBSITE: www.trumptrainusa2020.com WEBSITE: www.lloydmarcus.com The Trump Train 2020 song is the latest unifying anthem by singer/songwriter Lloyd Marcus, The Unhyphenated American. His viral “American Tea Party Anthem” and “2010” along with “We The People”, “Celebrate America”, “2012” and “We Are Americans” have inspired, thrilled and entertained tea partiers for over 10 years.

Lloyd Marcus has been on Fox News, CNN and Newsmax TV. His articles are published on America Thinker and several other media. Lloyd says we are not in a battle in which Democrats and Republicans simply have different views regarding how best to serve America.

Dragging their feet on (1) setting up insurance exchanges in their respective states even though such required funding is 95% guaranteed and supplied by the federal government and (2) snuffing out voter participation with artificial constraints designed only to stifle voting and (3) lastly rendering a women's right to an abortion as nothing more than a mere abstract exercise will all, in combination, propel the 21st century GOP into utter oblivion in the face of the overwhelming changing demographics that are heavily weighted in favor of Democratic Party affiliation. The impetus for the Tea-Party phenomenon is for the most part fueled by the still-lingering embers of the Southern Confederacy and the bible-strewn small towns littering this section of our nation that still insist on casting out those demons of the modern nation-state that dares to empower individuals with the full trappings of individual rights and choices. The South had its share of snake-oil charlatans in the 19th Century and it continues today with the Tea Party Express.  The Koch Brothers are the new southern-based snake oil salesmen par excellence, single-handedly fueling the Tea Bagger Movement but they are fighting a losing battle with history, demographics and the human capacity to transform our species into higher levels of existence. The folks beating the drum for a return to the “Dukes of Hazard” will shortly run into the biggest dose of whoop-ass this country has ever seen, starting now and lasting through 2014.  Starting with formerly mild-mannered Senate Leader Harry Reid and on down to GOP Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's Democratic opponent in Kentucky in November 2014 [Alison Lundergan Grimes] along with the current Democratic candidate for governor in Virginia (Terry McAuliffe), the Democrats are according themselves as the kicking donkeys that is the very trademark of the party.

Matt McLogan, vice president of university relations at GVSU, joins Grand Rapids Press political editor Jeff Cranson on this week's Talking Michigan Politics. recorded at One Trick Pony in downtown Grand Rapids. Thanks to proprietor Dan Verhil. The topics include: 1. The race for governor. A poll out Tuesday (PDF) from Lansing-based EPIC MRA confirms that the Democratic field has a ways to go in capturing interest, let alone excitement. Some 72 percent of those polled said they don't recognize the name of Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero, and 53 percent don't recognize House Speaker Andy Dillon who was preparing a run for months before sending more obvious signs upon Lt. Gov. John Cherry's departure from the race. In the poll, Dillon leads Dems with 22 percent, followed by Bernero with 15 percent and the candidate in the field the longest time, state Rep. Alma Wheeler Smith of suburban Ann Arbor, with 11 percent. On the GOP side, U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra of Holland continues to lead with 27 percent; while Attorney General Mike Cox netted 21 percent and Ann Arbor venture capitalist Rick Snyder scored 15 percent, a drop from his numbers in other recent polls. Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard, the only candidate besides Cox to have run a statewide race, notched 13 percent. After hearing background on the candidate, Hoekstra remained at the top with 26 percent, while Snyder moved up considerably, tying Cox at 21 percent. Bouchard gained two points. 2. Congressional races. Some Michigan seats are up for grabs, including those held by Democrats Mark Schauer and Gary Peters, who will most assuredly be targets of those gathering for Tea Party Express stops this weekend. Most intriguing is the battle to oust Schauer, who left the state Senate in 2008 and rode President Obama's coattails to victory in the mostly rural, GOP-leaning, southern-Michigan district. Battling to replace him is the evangelical conservative he upset, Tim Walberg, and Brian Rooney, the grandson of famed Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney. Brian Rooney is a 7th District transplant, having moved to Dexter in 2009. 3. Texting and driving. With a Senate-approved bill to ban texting while driving and make it a primary offense, all eyes are on the House. Gov. Granholm has indicated she would sign the bill if it makes it to her desk. Jack Lessenberry made a compelling case for the legislation in a recent essay. Conversation starters: • Jeff on former alpinist and author Greg Mortenson's visit to West Michigan and his "books not bombs" message. • Matt on April 15 deadline to file state and federal income taxes. Despite efforts to simplify the form, it is more complicated than ever.

Will health care vote by the key issue in November election?

Talking Michigan Politics

On this week's Talking Michigan Politics podcast, press editors Jeff Cranson and Ed Golder discuss: 1. Health Care. Is the health care vote really going to be the big issue in November, or is it still about jobs? Some believe the vote will solidify an alliance between social and fiscal conservatives in the GOP base. As former George W. Bush speech writer David Frum, who's rapidly falling out of favor with his party, asks: Do Republicans write a one-sentence bill declaring that the whole thing is repealed? Will they vote to reopen the "doughnut" hole for prescription drugs for seniors? To allow health insurers to deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions? To kick millions of people off Medicaid? Frum makes the argument that only talk radio hosts like Rush Limbaugh benefit from the vitriol: "If Republicans succeed -- if they govern successfully in office and negotiate attractive compromises out of office -- Rush's listeners get less angry. And if they are less angry, they listen to the radio less and hear fewer ads for Sleep Number beds." But top Republicans like Arizona Sen. John McCain say the vote will pay big dividends for his party. "We're going to have a very spirited campaign coming up between now and November," McCain told ABC's Good Morning America. Meanwhile Tea Party will hold three rallies in U.S. Rep. Bart Stupak's northern Michigan district to target him. The Tea Party Express III: Just Vote Them Out tour has added a new member of Congress who will be added to the group's target list. "We're trading votes with Bart Stupak. He sold out the American people and voted for that awful health care bill, so now we're going to repay the favor and vote him out of office," said Joe Wierzbicki, Coordinator of the Tea Party Express and a Michigan native. 2. Governor's race. Democrat Andy Dillon and Republican Pete Hoekstra seemed to agree on more than they disagree at a forum in Detroit last week. One Lansing Republican insider, said he came away surprised at Hoekstra's performance, calling him a "rock star" and said Dillon was better than in past appearances, too. Republican Mike Cox is getting national attention for being among state attorneys general filing challenges to the national health care bill. And another official tied to Democrat Virg Bernero has tax issues. 3. Michigan 10.0 -- Resources for sale. Windmills, water, land, conflicts abound, though many are optimistic that those resources hold the seeds of economic recovery.
