Just Jockeying For Position



If you ask me "this is nothing more than sour grapes" by these two preachers. Bill Adkins has been relatively quiet about city politics for the last fifteen years. He has been too busy fleecing his flock. He was instrumental in getting Willie Herenton elected as the cit's first black mayor to begin with. Now all of a sudden he's speaking out against Willie Herenton trying to entice A.C. Wharton to run for city Mayor. Leo Gray has been suffering from illusions of grandeur all along. He has aspirations of being the local version of Jesse Jackson. The one thing the two ministers have in common is their pro-black stances. These two preach racism from the pulpit. Talking to one of Bill Adkin's members makes you wonder do they attend weekly church services or "Black Panther" rallies. I don't personally know any of Lasimba Gray's members, but I've seen him on t.v. enough. Any where racial tensions are afloat with a news camera, he will be in the midst.

It's obvious that neither of these pastors have received preferred status under this administration. When the media wants a spiritual point of view, they don't call these two. Neither have received any special appointments, or been appointed to any governing boards. They have both been successful in their own rights; but egos are at play here. The bottom line is two of the biggest race baiters in the city, haven't benefited directly from having a Black Mayor. At this point they have nothing to lose. If Wharton did get in the race. In a worst case senario their situations wouldn't change. I just think they're jockeying for position.

Bill Atkins and Gray need to stick with preaching the gospel. AC will be a fall boy for two opportunist. The both of them have ther eown self will in mind. Ron Redwin is another opportunist that caused some great people to loose in the Congress race. He had no business entering in. This is a set up AC and don't fall for it.
