The Democrats need to be yelling from the rafters... "infrastructure, infrastructure and infrastructure" 'til it is heard loud and clear by the body politic. The country has been starved by an entrenched Republican bureaucracy of massive economic investments to pay for desperately needed upgrades to crumbling roads; antiquated highways; dangerous bridges; poorly-patched airports; aging railways; lagging, expensive internet [fiber optic] connectivity; vulnerable electrical and co-generating grids; nonexistent sewage recycling; water purification and desalinization plants; solar and wind farms.  Those efforts if championed loudly by the Democratic National Committee actually spending money with black and Hispanic media like EastNYManagement Company would put tens of millions of Americans back to work.

So, we had better watch what we pray for. Because these same Negros condemning Maher hardly uttered a mumbling word about the refusal of either the DNC or Clinton campaign (which was flush with cash) to spend any money with black media companies with predictable if disastrous results in the 2016 election.
