I just saw Representative Cedric Richmond speak on behalf of the Democratic Party and the National Black Caucus and he quoted the last two lines of Lift Every Voice And Sing (apparently the black national anthem, didn’t realize we a another Anthem)
quote:

True to our God, True to our native land.


He said that they needed to censure President Trump and one of the reasons they were submitting it to the floor was because he disrespected their native land of Africa

Why is a US congressman calling another country his native land

Where are these people’s loyalties! This guy should be removed from Congress.

The comment comes at 2:55 on the video

I try not to judge whole groups based on the actions of one of their lesser members

It was a Democratic Press Conference. CNN cut away to show the press conference live. Therefore I have to believe it was a sanctioned comment by the party as it was obvious he was reading a prepared statement.

Then Wolf and the panel praised the statement as ordered I’m sure.

If he loves Africa so much, he is more than welcome to go back and help forge a greater Africa.

He just doesn't quite understand the difference between native and ancestral.

How exactly do you determine a “lesser member” of the CBC?

Why don’t leftists here ever extol their virtues?

Someone needs to tell that demented old fart, Leahy that Africa is a continent, not a country.

The sad thing is, even parts of sub-Saharan Africa are more prosperous than vast swaths of Richmond's district.

WRONG!!!

In order to lose one's mind, you must have a mind to begin with.
