Values I Hope the Next President Will Support!

PLEASE read the information carefully, and I would be honored to discuss in detail how abstinence directives should be a HIGH priority for the Rainbow Push organization and for ALL concerned about these ills.

Sadly, blacks have higher rates as a percentage of the population—13 percent—of ALL of these social ills, BUT other statistics from the CDC state that they engage in these behaviors in higher rates—THUS more devastation. But, we have seen GREAT reductions—25 percent in teen pregnancy, and related 30 percent drop in child poverty, since we began funding Title V abstinence education in 1997, BUT have not seen that GREAT news in the media! Also, if we KNOW that so many social ills are linked to ONE behavior—why wouldn’t we invest MANY more dollars to be spent for those healthy, responsible directives?

Blacks account for 12-13 percent of the U.S. population—yet they have higher numbers as a percentage of their race in ALL of the following social ills:

POVERTY – The number one group trapped in poverty are single female-headed households—NO marriage—blacks have a 70 percent out—of-wedlock birth rate—THUS MORE POVERTY—CHOOSING to engage in sex before marriage is the causal factor!

STD’s – Blacks have higher numbers of ALL STDs—not just HIV/AIDS—which in some areas they account for 50 percent of the new cases—but also for Herpes, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and others. We KNOW that STDs are LARGELY spread by CHOICES to engage in sex outside of MARRIAGE!

CRIME – WE KNOW that blacks have higher rates of criminal behavior AND on more black victims—we also know that 70 percent of the men in prison came from homes with NO fathers—NO marriage—thus NO positive role model—people CHOOSING to engage in sex outside of MARRIAGE-and then abandon their
responsibility!

ABORTION – We know that since 1973, Roe v. Wade that 45 million unborn babies have been KILLED in legal abortion—BUT one third of those, 15 million—were black and Planned Parenthood et.al. sets up more inner city abortion clinics targeting blacks—that is GENOCIDE! That citizens SADLY ignore!

My research from the CDC states that black youth engage in sex at younger ages and with more partners than their peers—THUS, more of ALL of these devastating numbers!
