NAACP Official: Obama Campaign Staffer Threatened Me

David Lowery says he believes he was threatened during a phone conversation with Louis Raymond, the Illinois political director for Obama for America.

Lowery says he doesn’t personally support the president because he’s not addressing issues important to the black community. He said he was explaining that to Raymond when the Obama campaign official told him, “You know what? I know everything about you.”

Lowery says Raymond added, “We’ve been watching you, and since you don’t support Obama, we’ll deal with you,” before hanging up.

Lowery filed a report with the Oak Forest police report, he says, “in case something happens.”

He says it was suggested the NAACP should automatically back the president. Lowery notes a non-profit cannot support a particular candidate.

    I think they are trying to pull an AARP trick. NAACP needs to go back into the chicago hole it crawled out of. You screwed the Black community with obama. Do not try and gain favor with the people now.

    But the fact remains that obama has done more for the international muslim community than he has for the Black community.

    Black power.
    White control.

    This one needs to go viral. Black people need to see who “their” candidate really is. Let’s face it, the “Obamaphone Lady” made a great point. Obama’s been preezy up in da heezy for four years and all he’s done is enslave his own people with entitlements. They’re too ignorant, lazy and selfish to care.

    The NAACP lies to generate cheap pity for themselves. Case dismissed.

    So, the Obama clowns threatened a memeber of the racist hate group, the NAACP? Why, I do believe perhaps some chickens just came home to roost.
