Personal responsibilities and dynamics that we're not privy to and by the way shouldn't be; may keep her advocacy and good work on the state level.<br /><br />Having said that, I think we need people like her on local levels for as a result of this election and that of 2008, a lot of damage can be done in these arenas and can adversely impact national politics. <br /><br />I bet the people of Ohio would want her to stay...that's for sure!Carolyn Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15668984508382392168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-50041938940046284932012-11-12T12:24:45.660-05:002012-11-12T12:24:45.660-05:00Carloyn - Post-reconstruction was as terrible a pa...<b>Carloyn</b> - Post-reconstruction was as terrible a part of our national history as the reconstruction era was a wonderful part of our national history. Hopefully, we will learn from our history and avoid the excesses of our past.<br /><br /><b>All</b> - I truly enjoyed Nina Turner. I hope that she consider running for the House of Representatives in 2016 ... so that the rest of the nation can see her in action. However, I suspect that she will run for state-wide office next time around. Don't you agree?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001965827509309490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-28363346330783259152012-08-24T17:11:22.087-04:002012-08-24T17:11:22.087-04:00I so agree with your assessment of State Sen.

It's plain and clear and well stated!<br /><br />Post reconstruction (2) dynamics as I've said in the past are with us. The ante is higher for unlike the first post reconstruction era, it was congressional people of color whom served and raised the ire of whites. We now have a President of color who checks the African-American box on the census and plans to run again for another 4 yrs. Those in power and those who wish they were in power have gone off the deep end and my fear is that we haven't seen anything yet. The white judge who foresees another civil war may not be as looney as we think. The SPLC paints a bleak picture as well when it comes to the proliferation of hate groups and talk of sedition. Daunting indeed!Carolyn Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15668984508382392168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-40139643030609557872012-08-24T07:09:41.630-04:002012-08-24T07:09:41.630-04:00Disturbing, very disturbing.Disturbing, very disturbing.Reggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02228963124180428762noreply@blogger.com
