Rufus Jones for President, PLEASE!
Ethel Waters and Sammy Davis, Jr. in 1933…AND NOW.
Sammy Davis, Jr. did not grow up to be president, but the character he played in the video below is significant.
No, don’t be blue
for politics.
Nor be the red.
Please, intermix.
Analyze each
party’s bases.
Sort out lies that
support racists.
“Rufus Jones for
President” made
a statement to
biodegrade.
So, travel time
and cross each fence
vote and accept
with common sense.
