Greene – Jackson-Lee 2012!

True Democrat Alvin Greene gave his first campaign speech tonight at an NAACP sponsored rally in Manning, South Carolina. Alvin told the audience:

“I am also the best choice for the Image Award next year… South Carolina and America cannot afford 6 more years of my opponent. We cannot let my opponent keep this country hostage for 6 more years. Just last month we lost 125,000 jobs across the country. Just last month we lost 125,000 jobs across the country. Just last month we lost 125,000 jobs across the country… Lets reclaim our country from communists and terrorists.”

The NAACP audience loved him and applauded several times.

WTLX had more on his speech:

Although he’s been one of the most talked about candidates not just in South Carolina, but also in the country, this was his first public speaking engagement. The candidate who stunned political experts with his win in June’s Democratic primary had, up to this point, only made a series of one-on-one t.v. interviews with local and national reporters.

Wearing a suit complete with a green tie, the event gave Greene his first opportunity to appear in a setting usually given to candidates running for high office.

In his speech, Greene said he wants to expand water and sewer systems in rural communities, concentrate on alternative forms of energy, as well as, improve education programs. Greene, received applause with his exhortations to improve education and fight unemployment.

He suggested infrastructure projects put on hold after 9/11 could be restarted, such as an interstate from Michigan to the South Carolina coast.

  5. There’s nothing new with Al’s message mostly the same old talking points as all the other Democrats.

    OT…I’m volunteering for a congressional candidate in Georgia’s 12th district and I just wanted to get the word out for a real conservative before Tuesday’s primary.

    Any Georgians in this district please get out and vote.

  6. “Wearing a suit complete with a green tie, the event gave Greene ”

    His tie looked yellow on my computer screen.

  7. Q: What’s the difference between Greene and Obama?

    A: A Teleprompter

    Thanks CultureWar at hotair, lol.

  8. He’s running against Jim DeMint????
    Is the guy clueless??
    If he is a politician, then should start somewhere he can get some experience, especially talking.

  9. This day and age, he might actually win on the joke vote.

    Glad to see he at least is anti-communist and anti-terrorist.

  10. Expand the sewer systems? That might be a good idea. What with all the (B)arbra (S)treisand flowing so copiously down there.

    The Dem Party AND the NAACP in the same place at the same time. Major BS flowing.

    Where’s my handy dandy can of BS Repellent?

  11. Expand the sewer system ?

    The Democrat Party is big enough already and he wants to make it bigger ?

    Mr. Greene, I actually like you. You’re honest in a refreshing way – still trying to figure out what that way happens to be, but yeah….. I’d do a beer summit with y’all.

    Cheers from a typical bitter God-clingin’ gun-owin’ NASCAR-lovin’ Eeeeevil Jooooooooooo crackkka.

  12. mr. greene, you are an embarrassment to your race.

  13. He does meet all the requirements to get the NAACP vote. Well the one requirement.

  14. “The NAACP audience loved him and applauded several times.”

    Clearly they weren’t paying him the slightest attention…probably just sitting there with old fashioned hand fans saying “Mmm-hmm” and “Dassright” every few seconds.

  15. I gotta know from Alvin.
    A)Do Islands FLOAT? can they TIP over?
    B)What is a black hole?
    and F)
    Do you agree with Maxine Waters that you “will be all about …uh,…socializ… uh, …taking over companies”?

    “Glad to see he at least is anti-communist and anti-terrorist.”

    He gave a speech at a NAACP rally…

  17. At least he sounds sincere, and like he wrote his own speech. He may be the only Democrat I like.

  18. I see “NAACP sponsored Alvin Greene calls Obama administration communists and terrorists” Isn’t that racist?

  19. USMC Thomas: “mr. greene, you are an embarrassment to your race.” -He is an embarrassment to ANY race.

    Who is his running mate, William Hung?

    He looks like he could get into a debate with his mirror, and lose.

    If he gets more than 50% of the black South Carolina Democratic vote it will prove blacks are racist.

  20. go gata!

    “I am America” music video – very good.

  22. is greene the palin equivalent. every time palin speaks, libs automatically hear banjo music playing in the background. i get this, times 10 with greene. and now the clincher with the naacp supporters or the “black” vote is truly the motto of being governed by the least qualified. is this how maxine waters got a title? at least the manchurian candidate obama crossed all his “t’s” with the harvard credentials and community agitator track.

  23. Who helped Greene on with his suit? And clip-on tie? Was he wearing shoes, anyone?

  24. Hullo?
    …………………..
    “Wearing a suit complete with a green tie, the event gave Greene his first opportunity to appear in a setting usually given to candidates running for high office.”
    ………………………

    So how come this out of nowhere, unemployed booted out of the military so he’s NOT a “veteran” a NOBODY facing felony obscenity charges gets to “appear in a setting usually given to candidates running for high office?”

  25. The sewer system is big enough. That is why the TPM is trying to trim down the political system. Oh, you seriously ment the sewer??
    My bad, Dem’s are such toast this year.
    powder is dry.

  26. Well, the Jivemaster has already proved that anyone, absolutely anyone, can become president.

  27. How can he be anti-Communist
    and Democrat at the same time?

  28. Is this guy aware of what office he is running for? What do senators have to do with state water systems and sewers? Maybe he thinks he is running for governor of SC maybe or mayor of some hick town. And who are the terrorists and communists in his mind? He’s a dim so they are probably us. This an affirmative action failure not up to the job he seeks. Probably not up to any job. He seems to have made the military his career in several different branches. No one knows how he, an unemployed man, accumulated $10,000 filing fee and he’s not saying. Sounds like dimshenigans. If SC elects this idiot, they will be the laughingstock of the country even worse than Minnesota was for electing Jesse Venture, a pro whestler with no experience, as governor.

  29. Please!

    Greene has no chance. DeMint is tremendously popular, and a shoo-in for reelection – which is why no real Democratic “names” ran in the primary, and Greene’s opponent only raised and spent $200K (Greene spent nothing), which doesn’t make a dent in a statewide race.

    With hotly contested races in the Republican primaries for Governor, Lt. Gov., AG, and two congressional seats, the Democratic primary electorate probably was composed of a black majority. They voted for the black guy they didn’t know over the white guy they didn’t know.

    You can’t blame South Carolina for Greene. Just South Carolina Democrats, who are dumb as rocks anyway.

  30. he is a democrat, i don’t care what he says, it’s not true. i will vote republican.

  31. Ol’ Al was talking about himself when he mentions an “Intervention” for non-violent offenders. Guess his first priority would be to push that through cuz his trial is coming up. And Alvin Green is so popular he is in the Asian and UK Papers. And what does he mean about ‘projects left over from 9-11. Is he a secret Van Jones? A Greenie. LOL it was so funny to hear him take on Commies and Terrorists. And WHO is his SECRET Backer?? Hmmm.

  32. If there’s a televised debate, I hope Senator DeMint keeps himself from bursting out in laughter at some of Mr. Greene’s responses. Being the gentleman he is, he’ll probably manage.

  33. It’s tragic and shameful this buffoon is running for office and receiving national attention from the MSM that neglects investigating the black panther voter intimidation and the naacp audience giving this clown a standing ovation.

  34. He’s a DemCong and, therefore, is the enemy.

    Don’t underestimate the enemy. If elected, Greene will be another Jackson-Lee, only more sensible.

    Need to confirm the zeroes on the boomsticks.

  35. To bad most of NASA was shut down A.G. would have been a great rocket scientist

    Be aware now that the last time a person who was practically an unknown, and who had no experience, came on, spent multi-millions and somehow snookered America into believing the campaign “promise” of “hope & change”. Look at the USA now, and look at all the voter remorse, all the regrets. Don’t dare do it again. This SC guy has zero experience, zero education, zero, zero, zero. Don’t do it.
