In a speech given at Long Beach earlier this year, President Obama’s new nominee for Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, specifically called out voter ID laws as racist and schools as disproportionately using zero tolerance policies against minorities. The video was uncovered by Pundit Press.
The remarks came at the end of a long speech, explaining the examples that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela set for people.
Ms. Lynch then began talking about the inequities that she sees in the United States.
“There’s still more work to do,” Ms. Lynch explained. “People tell us the Dream is not realized because dreams never are. Mandela and King knew we had to continue working, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t tell you, that under this President and under this Attorney General, that the Department of Justice is committed to following through with those dreams
She continued, “50 years after the march on Washington, 50 years after the civil rights movement, we stand in this country at a time when we see people trying to take back so much of what Dr. King fought for. We stand in this country. People try and take over the State House and reverse the goals that have been made in voting in this country.
“But I’m proud to tell you that the Department of Justice has looked at these laws and looked at what’s happening in the Deep South, and in my home state of North Carolina has brought lawsuits against those voting rights changes that seek to limit out ability to stand up and exercise our rights as citizens. And those lawsuits will continue.”
Ms. Lynch was no doubt talking about the Justice Department’s lawsuit against North Carolina to stop their voter ID laws. Eric Holder even used the same kind of language as Lynch: “Allowing limits on voting rights that disproportionately exclude minority voters would be inconsistent with our ideals as a nation,” he explained.
It is plain to see that Ms. Lynch is arguing that people in the “Deep South” have passed these laws so that minority voters would be disenfranchised.
You can see the remarks in the video below. They start around the 30 minute mark:

A Few comments from this article
- this gal is an inept moron…Mandella was not American and Chief Justice is not just about racism, Mandella, Dr. Martin Luther King or her voting rights ideas..where did this fool come from..oh yea Obama’s locker room..
- Yet, another OBUMMER puppet being nominated. Gee, why does he usually nominate non whites to most of his positions? But he’s not racist
- Did you expect he would nominate anythiong but a black who supports him?
- If they are not smart enough to get a voter ID they are not smart enough to vote… This is all a crock of crap to enable the DEmocrats to commit fraud at the ballot box by illegal voters and voting many times.. It is obvious this is the party of lies and fraud… They cannot win otherwise… Look at what happened this time when in most states they trued the vote with ID. It is as it should be. You have to have an ID for everything in this country now.. Everyone has an ID. It is just so they can promote voter theft and fraud.. The DEM party is CORRUPT TO THE BONE.!
- I am tired of all the race baiters that act as though they are virtuous simply because they can quote from Dr. King & Nelson Mandela. It’s offensive. They should take a long hard look in the mirror and acknowledge that they themselves are modern era racist & should NOT be proud of it.
- Obama has simply replaced one activist with an even worse one. So what else is new? We ain’t seen nothing yet.
