New York – Who is Charles Barron? He is a demagogue who could be joining the U.S. House next year as the representative of New York’s Eighth Congressional District. Departing Democratic congressman Ed Towns has endorsed Barron, now a city councilman of New York, as his successor, despite having derided Barron as a “bomb thrower” when he challenged Towns in a primary four years ago.

Along with Representative Towns’s endorsement, Barron has gained the backing of several important unions in New York City. District Council Locals 37 and 1707, along with their parent union, the American Federation of State, Country, and Municipal Employees, are supporting Barron’s candidacy, nominally because his primary opponent, Hakeem Jeffries, has endorsed charter schools.
According to Ester Fuchs, a professor of public affairs and political science at Columbia University, the unions have other motives for their support: “DC 37 is using their endorsement to scare the mayoral candidates in the next Democratic primary election. They want to move the front-runners away from the political center.”
If elected is he going to “slap a white face” as he’s said in the past? He’s a disgrace to human kind.
Voters of Sea Gate, Brighton Beach, Manhattan Beach, Mill Basin, Marine Park, Coney Island… it is your DUTY to vote against this guy on June 26.
Darwin was right !!!
barron is a most dangerous type of white hater. The reason is because he is intelligent, and yet he still allows his hatred to cloud his reasoning to the point where he really believes his own racist rhetoric even though it is unoriginal. this is similiar to the way that Hitler convinced himself that Jews are demonic. This is a man who has let his hatred develop into a psychosis where he has abandoned ever challenging it, but just tucks it away strategically until he can one day unfurl it to hurt those whom he despised. This is exactly the frame of minds of the Islamic terrorists, so Charles Barron should for all practical purposes be Muslim. The fact that he is not makes him somewhat unrecongnizable as a threat and therefore all the more dangerous.
I hope he loses but I am almost 100% sure that he’s going to pull off a surprise victory.
Why doesn’t Bloomberg speak up? Maybe if Baron were caught buying a 20 oz soda, Bloomberg would say something.
Let me see, he is in a Democratic primary against a popular guy. The New York TImes and the entire establishment is against him. The cat is a fool, but one democracy will contain.
