Juan Williams: Cornel West And Tavis Smiley Are Threatened By Cain’s Success

video
» 226 comments

A few days ago, Herman Cain made headlines when he said that he didn’t “believe there is racism in this country today that holds anybody back in a big way.” Shockingly, some people disagreed. Two of those people are Cornel West and Tavis Smiley who have spoken out against Cain a number of times including during their appearance last night on The O’Reilly Factor when they said he was “trivializing” a serious issue. Today on The Five, Greg Gutfeld had a different interpretation; that Cain, unlike West and Smiley and the rest of the Left, just doesn’t feel the need to focus his entire life on race.

Despite being a liberal (and man of color) himself, Juan Williams agreed, accusing West and Smiley of merely being threatened by Cain’s success.

RELATED – Herman Cain On Obama: ‘Never Been A Part Of The Black Experience In America’

Here’s Williams responding to Gutfeld:

“Right on, brother. And I’ll tell you why I say ‘right on.’ Because West, Tavis Smiley, those guys are threatened by the success of Herman Cain. And I think that they feel that anybody who doesn’t buy into all the racism charges that they’re constantly- You know, in their world, President Obama doesn’t exist. You know, these are the same people who criticize Obama for not being sufficient. So imagine the way they feel.”

Williams went on to say that part of their complaint was that the Tea Party supports Herman Cain and they believe that he’s just a token to that Party.

Meanwhile, Andrea Tantaros compared it to women on the Left accusing Sarah Palin of being bad for feminism.

    Cain didn’t say racism doesn’t exist or trivialize it. He said racism doesn’t have that much impact on someone getting ahead. Since we have a black man in the highest office of the land and another black man possibly running on the other ticket I would say he is right.

  • Concerned Citizen

    Liberals are scared to death that the Republicans could actually have a black candidate for president. How would they explain that after all these years of accusing them of being racist. Doesn’t quite fit their false narrative.

    Williams would know better than most what Cain is facing in being a black conservative. Even though Williams is liberal he was attacked and fired for having a conversation with conservatives.

    Yes, but have you looked at the other factors? Most black people live in areas where there are fewer jobs and they refuse to move, for one. Detroit for example. Not that I blame them I don’t want to leave my home of 30 years either but the point is that racism is not the cause of the higher unemployment.

    Juan Williams is another Uncle Tom that Fox News finds whenever they need to speak ill of another Black person.  They don’t have the courage to do it themselves so the get a Juan Williams to do thier dirty work and Juan needs the CHECK I guess…Every time Fox News needs someone to attack the President they go under the nearest Rock to find another Black person to criticize the President, just because the president happens to be Black, FOOLS!!!!.

    Juan Williams is right on.  Both Smiley and West have criticized the hell out of Pres. Obama in the past  because he didn’t kiss their rings as the arbiters of racial justice during his campaign.

    Williams went on to say that Mr. Cain has his work cut out for him when it comes to competing with the president on foreign policy.

    Well my friend goes “Thats so racist.” And I say “why?” He goes “Of course they have black people eating fried chicken in the commercial.” ….  Our hypersensitive, idiotic, politically correct society creates thinking like this. Too bad my friend couldn’t see that he was the only looking at race and perpetuating stereotypes – not KFC. Of course, my friend thinks America is still reallllly racist. This is just a microcosm of the American left that looks for racism in every nook and cranny even when its not there.

We’re all human and we all make mistakes. Rush’s PERSONAL life has no effect on his political opinion.

    Well that’s better than voting with the OWS crowd or with the Ed Shultz crowd, or the Michael Moore crowd, or the Rosanne Barr crowd or the Kieth Obiteme crowd or the Al Sharpton crowd. Cain is a better row model to people of all races than Cornel West, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are to their own race.

    Al, Jesse and Cornel make their success on keeping racism alive. Cain’s made his success despite racism. That’s what makes his success even more impressive.

    Jesse Jackson, Tavis Smiley, Sharpton and that West person exist as long as they can convince African-Americans that they’re inferior and need special treatment. These people are evil and are their communities’ worst enemies.

    Once they stop believing that they’re inferior…. and start following the example of people like Herman Cain, Condi Rice and Clarence Thomas – rather than demonizing them as the Jesse Jacksons would have them do – then… and only then… will they be successful.

    Koreans, Italians, Irish, etc…. all showed up on the shores of America and were treated horribly. No one did them any favors. They had nothing but a dream, a work ethic, and a belief that they could succeed. They didn’t have ‘leaders’ like Jackson and Sharpton telling them they were screwed and shouldn’t bother…. whining about what was done to their great, great grandparents, as though past injustices have hobbled them in the present.

    Within a generation, they owned the stores they worked for. Then their kids went to university… and they lived the dream. African-Americans have seen one of their own become President of the United States of America… yet their leaders still play the victim card, telling their people that the system is rigged against them.

    When the black community starts to follow Cain, Rice and Thomas… rather than sell-outs like Jackson, Sharpton, Smiley and West…. then, and only then, will they turn the corner. Until then, they will stay where they are.

    That’s why you’re hopelessly partisan.

     You point to Herman Cain, Condi Rice and Clarence Thomas, but NOT the Leader of the Free World.  Don’t you know that conscious African-Americans see right through you?

     You know damned well that if  Cain, Rice and Thomas were Democrats or God forbid, Liberals…you’d be attacking them worse than you do Jackson. This is all about elections and the vote.  America only accepted Irish and Italians into the fold after DECADES had passed, and they developed political and economic power within their communities. Moreover, they were still White, and were eventually granted the same privileges and freedoms that WASPs in society already enjoyed.

They are the worst because they will throw their own under the bus, while pretending to have their best interests at heart. Pure evil.

    I should have included Colin Powell (a Dem) on the list of positive role models, but I didn’t include the ‘leader of the free world’ because he’s blowing a golden opportunity to do a massive service for ‘his’ people… he’s acting like Jesse Jackson rather than Powell / Cain / Rice, etc. It’s truly a shame and it will result in a setback that will last a century.

    And as long as you view your race as a crutch… you will limp.

    I sat in classes with brilliant people who were African-American, Chinese, Greek, Italian, women… etc…. every group you can imagine… I didn’t view their race or sex as a disability that defined their potential. And neither did they.

    How offensive that rather than embrace a Herman Cain… you treat him as an Uncle Tom… as though anyone who succeeds is a sell-out who isn’t really ‘black.’ … implying that failure and inferiority are the true marks of authenticity.

    By the way, Koreans aren’t ‘white.’

    My first reaction to this clip is the paucity of thoughtful and reasoned analysis from these individuals.

    And, the determined and resolute wish to judge everyone based upon their ability to make money. Cain is lauded for his business acumen while West and Smiley are a low-borne academic and journalist. They are the much hated elitist that haunts the “Real America.”

    The anti-intellectualism that pervades Fox News–and America–is truly disheartening. The idea that Cornel West would be threatened by Cain’s success as a fast food mogul is laughable. West is a learned humanist of the highest order whose erudition dwarfs that of the entire Fox News staff.  He is a morallist, a philosopher, and scholar of religion. The man is deeply concerned with the human condition and the need for justice.

    Cain is a business man. That’s it. The left is threatened by Palin? The SPECIES is threatened by the Palinesque descent into obtuse self-absorption. MONEY!!!! We all scream, feeling ourselves evermore debased by our fascination with wealth and status.

    For Fox and much of America, Cain represents their culture: money. All other topics (race, justice, art, morality, and anything remotely intellectual) have NO currency. Cain can’t see race because he has dollar-bill blinders on, while West and Smiley have a much broader vision. We are a nation with absolutely no cultural sensitivity, a nation polluted with the rotting stench of an avariciousness that will one day consume us in flames and make the financial crisis seem small. Money is not everything, my friends, and electing a man who reduces the world to the coldness and brutality of the ledger will surely kill us all. We need jobs, of course, but we need so much more than that. Humanism, the province of thinkers and writers like West and Smiley, is absolutely essential for our moral and spiritual survival. To deny them is to deny life itself.

    We need to learn how to live together–not how to make money. We need to think about the whole world–not just the financial world.

    Offensive?

    1.  Why on EARTH would I embrace Herman Cain? You want me to say, “good job” for him accomplishing something in his life?  OK. Herman Cain has accomplished great things in his life.  NOW…Have you heard his comments about Black people? We’re “brainwashed?”  “too poor to Tea Party?”  etc.  I should embrace his 999 Plan which will not only give the largest tax cut for the rich in history (35% to 18%), and the highest tax hike for the poor in history (0% – 18%)  but end social security and medicare, while removing all taxes from CEO’s who get paid in dividends and trust fund babies (Cain eliminates Capital gains taxes and Estate Taxes).  You want me to embrace that?

    2. There are nearly 40 million African-Americans, and you point out three or four of them (conservatives) that you think the other 39,999,996 of us should emulate more than the President….for what reason? Exactly what about the life story of Barack Obama do you have a problem with?  Academic achievement at the best schools America has to offer? Community Service? Devoted husband and father?
     Say what you want about Obama’s policies, but you’re doing yourself a huge disservice to your argument by claiming Obama is not a role model. Hell, do you know ANY non-Republican Blacks worth anything at all?

    The black–or any people’s–experience is complicated and not reducible. The fact that African-Americans retain the stigma and stain of slavery is undeniable, if not readily apparent to all observers. It’s a wound that we all share as Americans–and will not be washed away by putting a few bucks in a man’s pocket and giving him a title before his name.

    As I said elsewhere: Obama, a man who is not black enough for some, suffered through the indignity of having his very identity questioned by folks who wanted to wish him away with absurd denials of his status as an American citizen. Even descendants of slaves wouldn’t face this kind of prejudice. It’s at once sad and funny that many Americans fail to see the overt racism that continues to this day with Obama’s status as an American. Anybody ever ask Cain to release his birth certificate?

    The deceit, deception, and disingenuousness of those denying racism is so prevalent, none can see it. It’s omnipresent and thus invisible.

    But like the ‘blackest of black’ Americans, Obama was constantly challenged to prove himself to be a “Real American,” to be above race, to be ‘one of us,’ to be ‘clean enough,’ the kind of questioning that no white president would ever face.

    Thank you for your opinion. So many on here just want to call each other names when they disagree. I will reiterate that Cain never said racism didn’t exist only that it is not a factor in succeeding. All the problems Obama has over his skin color didn’t stop him from acquiring the office. Your example proves my point better than I did. Despite all the obstacles he got there. Cain has faced all those prejudices as well. What must he have gone through starting out in the south and having to drink from the blacks only fountain. Different than Obama in his private schools. You say Obama had to suffer the you aren’t a real American comment, what about Cain being told he isn’t a real black man? Racism, reverse racism, its all around us but we can succeed if we are determined and that’s what Cain said. He never said racism doesn’t exist and neither have I.

    Cain Ain’t Able

    A Federal Reserve stooge named Herman
    Tried givin’ American po’folk a sermon
    “If you ain’t rich
    You must be one lazy beotch!”
    He’s about as subtle as General Sherman.

    Now where does Uncle Tom get the nerve
    After working for the Federal Reserve,
    The biggest thieves on the earth,
    To question anyone’s worth
    When unemployment’s on an exponential curve?

    Herman says “Lift yourself by your laces!
    There’s plenty jobs around for all races!”
    But there’s no factories,
    ‘Cause with Fed subsidies,
    They vanished overseas, leaving no traces!

    But Herman’s Fed prints out trillions for euro banks,
    Then hands the bill to taxpayers, without thanks!
    Man, it’s as good as it can get
    When you’ve got a license to counterfeit,
    And now Herman wants to join the Presidential ranks!

    Yes, this former pizza peddler named Cain
    Says God told him to get into the campaign
    With his 9-9-9 tax plan
    But turn it over and scan
    And the “Mark of the Beast” becomes plain!

    When Herman’s tax plan is laid on the table
    It’s apparent that it’s a tax increase fable.
    It’s austerity in disguise
    Which Herman vehemently denies,
    But when asked to prove it, CAIN AIN’T ABLE!

    But Cain says he’s a foreign policy man
    Who knows he needs an international plan,
    But when put on the spot
    Herman had just one thought:
    It was “Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan”!

    I live in England and I used to watch Red Eye when it was shown at about 3 in the morning. Yes I was stoned and pissed alot of the time. It was pretty enjoyable and Greg Gutfeld (classic nomenclature!) came across as a fairly humorous satirist, dwelling in the middle ground. Therefore, it mildly disturbs me (notice the “mildly” prefix, just to show I only give one shit, rather than two) to hear the awfully tortured opening monologue from him in this clip. The delivery is disingenous, but the scripting is so biased, lazy and blatantly agenda driven as to be reprehensible. Where is the grey area?

But many people in those same situations find the courage to leave it behind without the knowledge everything will work out if they just pick up and take a chance. Thing is my comment is about the higher unemployment rate of black people due to industry closing down in communities with a heavy black population being a possible cause. We jump to a conclusion that may be unfounded when we say that rate is caused by racism.

    What source, Cobra? It’s pretty well known that Obama is only half black and has Kenyan blood. Cain is 100% black and a true descendant of slaves. He’s spoken quite at length about his family tree. They were slaves in Georgia, I believe. This makes him a better fulfillment of the American civil rights movement than Obama could ever be.

    But the thing about Cain that makes him fundamentally more American than Obama, is that he’s not using white guilt or the race card to get elected or make his points. And he’s standing up for white America against these Leftist race hustlers like Smiley and West. The Left, seemingly, cannot promote a black that ISN’T a race hustler.

    You want to unite the country and heal a racial divide? Vote Cain. Want to divide the country further, see more black panthers at our polling places, and have an even more racist Atty General and Justice Dept.? Vote Obama.

    And then Herman Cain comes along and suggests that you might be brainwashed… and that doesn’t even make you think. Even a little. Just for a second.

    The total subservience of the Left to anyone with some letters after their name is what frightens me. Remember when Obama brought those doctors into the white house for a photo op about ObamaCare? They brought out white lab coats for them, so they looked “more like doctors”. This way, all the Lefties watching could be so impressed by them and submit to the authority of the white coat.

    Cornell West isn’t “deeply concerned with the human condition and the need for justice”… he’s a typical leftist race hustler that loses all his power if enough blacks realize that there is no lock on the front gate of the plantation. Cain is a mortal threat to his racket.FOX isn’t “anti-intellectual”, you’re just so easily duped by “intellectuals” that you feel lost without one.

    I truly don’t understand how Republicans come to be so stupid. Of course people hate you for what you do. You are human garbage.

    You still don’t see it, Cobra. Is the plantation fence too high? You’re still focusing on skin color. GWGM is talking about character – Cain, Rice, and Thomas are of a different character than West, Smiley, and Obama. Of course he didn’t mention the leader of the free world, why would he? He’s on the plantation like you. Just because he wants to be massa and run the plantaton, doesn’t make him any more than a Leftist slave like you.

    Of course we’d be “attacking” Cain or Thomas if they were liberal – because this is about ideology, not melanin content. Only an idiot would just automatically vote for someone based on the color of their skin. Right? You might end up with some completely unqualified who ends up destroying the country. Wow, can you imagine what that would be like?

    Anyone can vote Left. Hope, Change. Go with the flow. Don’t think too much about it. Share in the “historical moment”. That takes no brain at all. It’s the gutless choice. 

    And that’s the real problem: the more conscious blacks become, the more they see through YOU.

    Heard of white guilt? Google it.

    Why wouldn’t we want you to embrace a sensible, totally fair tax plan that ends social games with the tax code? Oh yes, because you’re a socialist, that’s right. 

    Why would we want you to emulate blacks that are OFF the plantation rather than those that are ON? Well, I don’t know… if you really like staying there, perhaps you should.

    Free thyself, Cobra. Put down the racial axe and join the polite, free, society outside the fence that doesn’t care about your melanin content. This is the fundamental problem with black america today: they can’t have equality and prosperity until they are willing to grant equality and prosperity. And since the race hustlers NEED that inequality to keep themselves in power… you’ll never be free until you let it go.

    No, KT – the sad thing is you don’t even know who republicans are… just what your Lefty friends tell you they are. Isn’t it funny how the party that was founded on abolition and freed the slaves is the party you fear? And the party of the southern confederate, the author of the Jim Crow laws, and the proud father of the KKK is the party you desperately cling to and defend?

    And then Herman Cain comes along and suggests that you might be brainwashed… and that doesn’t even make you think. Even a little. Just for a second.

    Moron, the Democratic Party was once the party of racism, the party of the South. Now the Republican Party is the party of racism, the party of the South. You are the party of the Southern Strategy.

    How is it that I need to explain this to you? Why didn’t you learn these things in grammar school?

    There is a 30% higher government job rate for Blacks than in the private sector. Accordingly, government cut backs, coupled with private sector cut backs, have combined to push the unemployment rate higher in the Black community.

    You support all of those things. Exactly ZERO left wing movements in the United States support wars of imperialism, torture, mass murder, domestic government spying, etc. Those are your principles, Republican Party principles.

    Let me clue you the hell in on something.  First of all, I’m not a comunist, although I don’t have a problem with that political point of view.  The problem is that the various countries that practiced it in the past and continue to do so, have given it a bad name with their over emphasis on controlling people’s lives.  Now, with that bullsh!t out of the way, let’s get down to it. 

    Baby, I am far from a looser.  I have good job, working for the 3rd largest Offense contractor on the planet (notice that I didn’t say Defense contractor, we’re not defending shit around here) that pays me pretty damn well (middle five figures). That allows me to live in a nice community on the west side of Los Angeles, in a home that’s not under water.  I have money in the bank, good investments, my kids go to private schools (Archer school for girls and Cal Lutheran University), I support various charitable organizations that focus on literacy, small business creation and believe it or not, rehabing battered women. As for Jews, I have some in my family.  On of my cousins is married to a Mizrahi  and another is married to a Sepharic, what do have to say about that sh!t?  Lastly, judging by some of your assanine rants, your’re the bigger idiot.

    I like Santorum, I probably wouldn’t vote for him because he really doesn’t have enough private sector experience yet. He is also a little to focused of social issues, that’s not a bad thing just the wrong thing right now. Constitutionally the Federal government has zero legal authority there anyway so it’s irrelevant what his personal philosophy is, Paul is way better on those issues from a strict policy standpoint. 

    He does have some really good ideas, personally I don’t like all of them, but I also don’t expect a president to be my personal saviour and “guiding light” or expect them to micromanage my belief system.  Rick is defineitly a wonk on policy and will not make deals or compramise his values in any way, which is highly admirable. That’s why I like Kusinitch, don’t agree with him on anything but he is forthright and unwavering just like Santorum.

    I could go on, but I already know I failed your liberal litmus test so it’s rather pointless to do so. If you were hoping I would go on some religious rant or fall into some silly gotcha trap you had better try much harder. I despise identity politics and grievence mongering, love America, the Constitution and am a victim of nobody by myself and my own choices. I’m impervious to insults, so don’t waste your time with it.

    That’s why I have such tremendous respect for Juan, I don’t agree with him on much but he is no race hustler and is very sharp. He a Hanity are really good friends even though they oppose each other on policy which is perfectly fine. 

    The problem is that West and Smiley is they ARE race hustlers, so it’s not ever going to be just about policy with them. It’s a completely different dynamic.

    I think you need to have a good look at Obama.  If you do and if you have any ability to observe with your eyes and then process what you see, you will quickly admit that indeed, Obama is black.  Your rule about “descended form slaves” then defies facts that blacks who were never slaves are still black.  Go to African and have a look!  Frankly, the going prejudicial rule is that if you have any minute black ancestry blood in your veins, you are black and sadly, apparently that shall ever be so.  That alone is a racist comment but it still exists.  And besides, who cares about his “color”.  As a Republican, I can honestly say he is bright, articulate and personable.  He inherited a big mess from GW and even considering that, he is still handling his job fairly well.  It is my hope that in the end, his total time in office will be judged on its merits, with NO consideration to his skin color.  So far so good, except for this campaign season!

    Some of us are down on Wall Street. We are everywhere.

    We will continue to fight against the principles of fascism and communism that Republicans and Obama supporters support.

    American liberals NEVER support things like torture. American liberals would NEVER lie out country into war. American liberals would NEVER suspend habeas corpus. American liberals would NEVER allow the government to spy on the people. American liberals would NEVER make excuses for murdering U.S. troops and innocent civilians.

    These are the things that Stalin, Hitler, and Republicans ALWAYS support because you hate our country.

    Liberals defend America against Republicans and fellow enemies. ALWAYS.

    Seriously. I don’t hear any Koreans or Asians whining about “Bamboo Ceilings.”
    They’re too busy working, going to university and buying out their bosses.

    Cobra feels better pretending ALL non-whites are hopelessly doomed to persecution and failure, so he brings up a non-existent egghead theory. Better that than looking in the mirror.

    But don’t let that fool you. When the rioting starts, whose businesses get looted and burned down first? The resentment against Asians for smashing the ‘doomed to failure’ myth is palpable.

    The truth is that these other non-white groups refused to wallow in self pity. They wouldn’t listen to self-appointed ‘leaders’ among them who told them they’re inferior or that the game is rigged against them, so they might as well not try… that all they can do is hold out their hands and beg. Good for them.

    On the other hand, the African-American community has followed these opportunistic, evil leaders for decades. How is that working out for you Cobra? Every other group that runs across a border, through a desert or crosses an ocean in an old scow with nothing but the clothes on their back ends up successful within a generation.

    Do you take notes and follow suit? Of course not. You put your hand back on the hot element again and again and again. You shoot down people like Herman Cain because they try to help you by pointing out that your current path is a road to continued failure. How many times do you have to burn yourself before you realize Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton aren’t on your side?

    Just today, Obama pulled the race card crap again. Thank goodness for Herman Cain or Obama would blame all opposition to his failed socialist policies on race, conveniently ignoring that most white voted for him in 2008. Obama would light the fuse on a race war if he thought it would help him win. What more do you need to know about the man?

    Riiiight…… That’s why the che shirts, comunist party banners, the red book, and every other manner of totalitarian commie filth is proudly displayed at EVER SINGLE ONE of the liberal and progreesive ralies and NEVER at a Tea Party….. Ya Know… The “facists” that never support anything even remotely similar to the “gimmie gimmie gimmie i hate you” commies like YOU!

    American liberals NEVER support things like 
    torture —  as long as you dont count the death threats against ANY republican
    lie out country into war— Unless it’s lybia and yemen, bosnia….
    suspend habeas corpus.— except when it comes to the TSA, illegals, and assainations
    spy on the people.— except when it comes to the patriout act, obamacare, and dodd frank
    make excuses— for a failed economy, bailouts, and every thinge else we do
    murdering U.S. troops— unless it might involve killing the enemy then its fine
    and innocent civilians.— excet when drones are used for assasinatin people without a trial

    Look commie…. I realize you are delusional, a liar, stupid, mentally deficient and can barely contain your desire to murder anyone who MIGHT disagree with you lunacy…. HOWEVER

    Just because YOU are to much of a coward to OWN IT and admit your love of socialism, communism, Mao, Stalin, Jones, Kenin, Marx and all the rest IS NOT fooling anyone.Burning flags, spitting on the troops, cheering their murder, saying the war is lost, waving the communist flag, praising Castro and Che at every protest, glorifing terrorists like the palestinians, praising Mao…….

    Sell your MASSIVE  lie someplace else retard!! It wont work with me or anyone who has two eyes and hears the filth you chant ant every rally since 1960.YOU are not fooling anyone commie!

    Moron, Obama is not a liberal. You just think he is because he is black. In reality, Obama pretty much supports everything you do. Even his health insurance policy was written by the Heritage Foundation and Mitt Romney. The only reason you’ve been trained to hate the policy is because it’s Obama’s policy. Republicans know you’re a racist, so they know they can make you support or oppose anything based solely on your racism.

    Give me an example of a fascist or communist authoritarian principle that you do not support. Do you differ with Hitler or Stalin in any way? I know you support the torture, mass murder, war crimes, religious intolerance, domestic spying, re-writing of history, denial of habeas corpus, etc. But can you find any differences between Hitler, Stalin, and yourself?

    African-Americans, by DNA research, are upwards of 30% European.  That’s because of the mass RAPE of enslaved Black females by White men.  If Cain is a “true descendant of slaves” he more likely than not has White blood coursing through his veins.  That’s genetic science.

    Don’t guess I am full of it as you just proved my point. Jobs are where you find them and you won’t find them in the cities the blacks are living in at this time. The higher rate of unemployment of black men can be attributed to where they live and not on racism.
