I'm always struck by those who believe an ignorance man is better than one of wisdom. Ignorant men are more compelling because he "always" blame others' success for their failure and they envy achievers. Citizens of Neward should concentrate on improving their being via education. This is America where success is possible even though the road is tough. Though racism is alive, it can be an excuse for not having the know how or network.
The posts in this thread are concerning. Like citizens of Washington D.C., who elected Mayor B. despite his addition to cocain and crack. Washington D.C. was a failed state. Today, the same citizens removed Michelle Rhee who fired incompetent teachers, which resulted in higher test scores that translates to a smarter generat
In Newark, N.J., whoes citizens are of similar background, supported a Mayor that was obviously corrupt and abuses. A man who was in politic for his own political gain
good documentary, while I don't like Chris Christie I'm glad he put sharp or what ever his name is in prison, what a dirt bag that guy is, too bad he got so soon
Carpetbagger? What is this? The Reconstruction era South? The last people who called opponents carpetbaggers were wearing white hoods and burning crosses. Sharpe James was corrupt, just like his predecessors. If you honestly think that Corey Booker is ripping Newark off, the why the fuck would he live in shitty neighborhoods and public housing for almost his entire time in Newark? Honestly, you people should be ashamed of yourselves. And you people think you're the victims of racism. Hypocrites.

i believe cory booker is doing the best that he knows how to do! i commend him for what he has done so far and i wish that the people of newark would understand that cory is trying to clean up this mess of a city and its gonna take a hell of alot more than 4 years to clean it up bcuz it took a hell of alot longer than 4 years to mess it up! however altho i DONT AGREE with mayor bookers decision to bring outsiders into our city im confident he did so with good intentions
Corey Booker is a con-man and he is only able to fool simple minded people. Corey will have that easy life you speak about after he is finished ripping Newark off. Corey Booker is not even from Newark and does not have any real love for it or the people of Newark. Newark is just a stepping stone for Corey. call it,what it is. Notice how he put all those white cops in power of the police in a city full of blk people. He brought the KKK into a blk city,none of the police heads are from Newark.
This guy is bought and paid for!!! "A New day is dawning in Newark? The sun is shining and new oppurtunities and new hope? LIAR!!! America is falling fast!! Tell the damn truth. He sounds like a damn politcian. Already lying and he hasn't got into office yet!!! Mostof you love someone coming in saying false shit and young and lightskin!! Wake up!! The real thugs are in Washington DC!!!
I like fact that Booker, who grew up in the neighborhood and knows what needs to be done and change, took stand for the people and made a change... He never gave up no matter how hard and violent things got... Chicago needs major like him.. fuck Sharp
@daytona0310 No, a carpet bagger is somebody who comes in from the outside to take advantage of the people who were already there. It was initially a Southern reference to Northerners who moved South during the Reconstruction era. They typically carried a form of luggage called a "carpet bag". Nothing to do with race. Sharpe is calls Booker that in reference to him growing up and going to college elsewhere before moving to Newark and getting involved in politics.
Sharpe James returned to Newark yesterday after serving 27 months in a federal pen. Sad thing is, if he announced that he was entering this year's election today, he'd win by a landslide.
Yep, this is what you get when you have a city full of Urban Americans......savagery! And Christie has no choice but to start slashing all of the Big Brother money the state doles out, watch for the Baby Mama and all other grifters to have a seizure. Yep, Newark is the future of this country, a boiling pot of violent scumbags ( not all in NJ are scum). Watch for the white libs to cater more and more to Urban Americans as they threaten to get more violent. The United States Of Ameritard is lost.
@tickyul They never said anything about you not being able to speak freely, you're free to sound as stupid and ignorant as you want. But you're still stupid and ignorant, that's the point.
@billthebutcher2 Right, they never said I could not speak. But, the need to FLAME someone when what they say does not fit into their midset is pretty pathetic in my opinion....you are a perfect example.
@billthebutcher2 Yes, hopefully whites and blacks will be allowed to voluntarily resegregate, just like they are doing now.......without the government butting in. No more bringing ghetto section 8 housing to an all white neighborhood, we know what that brings.

A man who could have had an easy life of wealth, and instead he chose one of the worst jobs to do. Cory Booker is amazing, and this is who we should teach our young people to be like.
@asif1912 He graduated Oxford a Rhodes scholar, started out with a prestigious law firm, but left it behind him in order to roll up his sleeves and work for Newark.
you're an idiot. (a) if you hate america why are you watching videos on an american website; (b) this movie is amazing, as is evidenced by it's awards; and (c) this film depicts an aspect of democracy that's often overlooked, how the hell is that "shit"?
the guy who filmed this was a real dick. i watched the movie, and he didnt care about who he exploited and continually defied authorities. just not a high character guy. hes an opportunist

booker is slowly turning newark around..yeah u have your dumb people here and there but dont every city haves that..so far he is better then sharpe james..crime rate is down..thats all i have to say
Its a shame and blatant that the PD and FD took down BOOKER's poster. Goes to show you that corruption runs ramped through the political office. Here you have a man that wants change but the citizens will put up with a corrupt man. Even PD & FD.
@Crippled99 When your kid gets shot by some crooked cop, you would WANT Al Sharpton to bring some noise to it instead of letting the city sweep it under the rug. Maybe you live in some plush neighborhood where things that he brings to light doesnt happen to you, your family, and friends way too often (I hope i'm not giving you too much credit) but what people need in a time like that is a LOUD MOUTH. Thank God for Al Sharpton for not being afraid to stand up to the inner-city oppression.
@Crippled99 The documentary hints at this. People supported him for so long, and he's so familiar, that people are afraid to be wrong about their choice to keep him in office. Cognitive Bias is powerful.
i just watched this documentary in school! i loved it! I was so hurt by the ignorance of newark citizens and how they kept voting for someone that was never gonna make a change, it was so disturbing...but i was happy cory booker never lost his integrity!

i'm from newark this comment maybe old but just to let you know newark is historical city, all places might be safe but it is still bueatiful and just to let you know you won't last two minutes in my hood bitch!!!!
Because your not in their shoes so you're right you won't ever understand ghetto kids...you proabably never had a single hard day in your life. So its easy for you to judge someone!
I might add that this was the craziest doc I've ever seen. I was left frustrated watching this and felt motivated to help out Corey Booker.
Def a must see. Believe me its as close to a street fight as you'll get. You think shit like what happens in this doc happens in today's world. Creepy as fuckin hell.
in this film, you actually see black people riding in vans on BULLHORNS screaming that Corey Booker isn't black. at some point, black people we are going to have to address these issues...
I was their for the first mayoral race. I love elections in black communities - it's never about issues. It's about how "black" you are, or how many motown artist you can have playing for you.
i don't care about what people say about corey booker. he's a good person and is doing his best for this city. doing way more than sharp james ever did
Newark is does not enforce laws against illegal aliens! It is a safe zone for all illegals. No illegal alien is arrested for DUI or checked out propery. Make the Mayor and police use the ICE program that many States and cities are using with police. ENFORCE NOW ! Stop the illegal invasion. Take back your country and towns ! Ted Hayed dot net
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
. I saw this movie it was terrible . Cory booker a white man in black mans body with a crooked eye sends white folk running after a black mayor. . As a quote from my very own mothers mouth that her mother passed on from her own mothers mouth any black man that is well liked by white folk you need watch out for that man. Booker is well liked by white folk (and he has done nothing in Newark)
How could you understand what your mother and mother's mother were saying with all that dick in their mouths? You know they were both racist hoe's just like you BROTHA !
Tickle me elroy 007 I'm not racist but your mad because you have two fathers(who are madly in love with each other) . Look at your fucked up name.Tickle me elroy.lollipop licker
To mr premium unleaded. Mr booker racism is apparent.He had white reporters chasing the black mayor of my town. Some of the film takes place on my block. We chased the crackers away.Happy Black History Month.
Some parts of Essex County like Newark, East Orange, Orange and Irvington to start needs the National Guard to get things in order on the streets. The cops are out numbered, out smarted and let's not talk about the weapons.
About the documentary, you might want to check out pbs dot org and then search for the show "POV". POV is the show that broadcast this documentary. They also recently came out with another documentary called "Revolution '67" about the Newark riots. Bye.
I know that Sharpton supported James but Booker got a decent amount of support from other national black leaders. With regards to the last point it should be understood that James had a political machine so you can not always outright blame voters when for most of his political career he ran unopposed. Though I do agree that the people that voted for him in the 2002 race were completely blind or bought out.
Sorry, I hit the post comment button by mistake. Sharpe James was just federally indicted yesterday on 33 counts of fraud and misusing city credit cards.
Yep, it's about time. What is sad is that I was listening to the Brian Lehrer Show on WNYC today and you still had some apologists for James calling in. He's destroyed my city, thank god something is finally being done and how sad it is that we had to wait this long because the State Democratic Party's fear of losing black votes from his political machine.
I'm starting to get really interested in Mr. Booker, even though I'm Irish. Can someone please tell me what was Sharp for and what was Booker for? Someone please let me know. I'm really interested.
if you are or have read this comment then you are cursed for life. You will have a terrible life and never get married (if you are already married you will get divorced). Only way to undo this curse is if you comment 5 videos with this exact message
I left Newark for Atlanta years ago. If there would have been a Cory Booker then, I'd still be there working on his team. Blessings to you Cory for taking the risk it took to get to where you are today. You stand for much more than politics, you stand for righteousness, truth & honor. Need more like you.
Yeah, it is a pretty interesting film (I grew up in Newark). Anyway, it is good that James is finally out, the corruption was rampant under his government. Unfortunately he still is a State Senator, which speaks volumes about the NJ Democratic Party.

Corey Booker is a hero of mine. I respect and admire him greatly! He chose a hard road, and he has been faithful to it! Bravo! Toni Sullivan

I might add that this was the craziest doc I've ever seen. I was left frustrated watching this and felt motivated to help out Corey Booker.
Def a must see. Believe me its as close to a street fight as you'll get. You think shit like what happens in this doc happens in today's world. Creepy as fuckin hell.

I was their for the first mayoral race. I love elections in black communities - it's never about issues. It's about how "black" you are, or how many motown artist you can have playing for you.

Newark is does not enforce laws against illegal aliens! It is a safe zone for all illegals. No illegal alien is arrested for DUI or checked out propery. Make the Mayor and police use the ICE program that many States and cities are using with police. ENFORCE NOW ! Stop the illegal invasion. Take back your country and towns ! Ted Hayed dot net

. I saw this movie it was terrible . Cory booker a white man in black mans body with a crooked eye sends white folk running after a black mayor. . As a quote from my very own mothers mouth that her mother passed on from her own mothers mouth any black man that is well liked by white folk you need watch out for that man. Booker is well liked by white folk (and he has done nothing in Newark)

Some parts of Essex County like Newark, East Orange, Orange and Irvington to start needs the National Guard to get things in order on the streets. The cops are out numbered, out smarted and let's not talk about the weapons.

About the documentary, you might want to check out pbs dot org and then search for the show "POV". POV is the show that broadcast this documentary. They also recently came out with another documentary called "Revolution '67" about the Newark riots. Bye.

I know that Sharpton supported James but Booker got a decent amount of support from other national black leaders. With regards to the last point it should be understood that James had a political machine so you can not always outright blame voters when for most of his political career he ran unopposed. Though I do agree that the people that voted for him in the 2002 race were completely blind or bought out.

Sorry, I hit the post comment button by mistake. Sharpe James was just federally indicted yesterday on 33 counts of fraud and misusing city credit cards.
thunderstruck665 4 years ago
Yep, it's about time. What is sad is that I was listening to the Brian Lehrer Show on WNYC today and you still had some apologists for James calling in. He's destroyed my city, thank god something is finally being done and how sad it is that we had to wait this long because the State Democratic Party's fear of losing black votes from his political machine.

I've met Cory Booker and talked to him, he is the real deal. How did Sharpe James win that Election? Shows how intercity politics can be so corrupt.

I left Newark for Atlanta years ago. If there would have been a Cory Booker then, I'd still be there working on his team. Blessings to you Cory for taking the risk it took to get to where you are today. You stand for much more than politics, you stand for righteousness, truth & honor. Need more like you.

Yeah, it is a pretty interesting film (I grew up in Newark). Anyway, it is good that James is finally out, the corruption was rampant under his government. Unfortunately he still is a State Senator, which speaks volumes about the NJ Democratic Party.
