GP: Exclusive guest op-ed from New Jersey congressional candidate William “Billy” Prempeh:
My name is William “Billy” Prempeh and I’ve decided to step up for the people of the 9th congressional district — because unlike Black Lives Matter, I will actually work to get justice and change the culture that is causing black lives to be taken on our streets.
I am a first generation American, U.S. Air Force Veteran and patriot from Paterson, NJ.
My parents legally immigrated to this country from Ghana, West Africa in the late 80s and sacrificed so much to give us the opportunity to thrive in this great land. I love this city, which I have lived in my entire life, and I can no longer sit by and watch it devolve into a dangerous warzone.
Paterson, the city I live in, is the largest in the 9th district. Democrats have controlled this city for nearly 50 years, and given its current state, it’s clear that it’s time for people to start voting differently and consider new solutions. As a Republican, I know that I can persuade people in my district to consider some alternative answers to our problems. more
Two blacks who ran in the last election and were featured on iotw, lost after looking like they were winners. The young black girl rom Baltimore(?) and a black vet from Commiefornia. When will black people wake up?
They may be awake but dominion….
