"Our parents said to work for good white folks -- and that's what we did!" Those are the shocking words of Mattie Lucy Payne, 89, housekeeper and nanny to the Gores of Tenneessee. For more than 30 years, Payne cleaned house and cooked for the Gores on their 250-acre farm in Carthage. It was on this farm where Payne helped raise Al Gore Jr. During this period, Payne fought to overcome firmly established social boundries in the South. On some occasions the Gores would take Payne on trips to Washington, where Al Sr. was Senator. On those rides, Payne recalls being kept in the backseat of the car -- as the Gore family dined in 'Whites Only' restaurants! Payne says she complained bitterly about the high temperatures in the car while she waited. "Albert Jr. would bring out a sandwich to the car because I was not allowed in the restaurant," Mattie Lucy Payne told a local reporter. "We didn't know any better, that's the way we grew up." Mattie was very close to the Gores. And Al Jr's mother, Pauline, expressed her appreciation: "Mattie Lucy is a very special person... She always knew the kind of meals everyone liked... We think of Mattie as 'one of the family.'" Pauline Gore even featured Mattie Lucy's recipe for "Farmer in the Dell Chicken" in her published cookbook. Payne recalls: "When Al Jr. was in college he would come home for the weekend and bring friends. He would say, 'Mattie, fix several different dishes, some greens from the garden.'" Payne's stunning claims are featured in the new book DRUDGE MANIFESTO, released October 3, 2000 by NEW AMERICAN LIBRARY. Throughout the years, many of Payne's relatives worked on the Gore farm: "I remember Mrs. Gore saying, 'If they are kin to Mattie Lucy they can come to work,'" Payne recounts for the CURRENT LINES of Upper Cumberland. And Payne watched as the Gore family groomed Al Jr. for high office. "Mr. Albert had it in his mind that Al would be in the White House." But Payne's role in the Gore family history has been diminished in recent years. "Segregation in the South is one those chapters from long ago and far away that is just not spoken about," said a family friend. http://www.drudgereport.com for updates (c)DRUDGE REPORT 2000 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Gore Accused of Low 'Negro Tolerance' www.NewsMax.com Friday, Sept. 8, 2000 A black Democratic congresswoman from the Deep South has accused Vice President Al Gore of going along with limiting Afro-Americans on his Secret Service detail. Black agents have been complaining of racial discrimination within the agency charged with guarding at all costs the lives of the president and other top federal officials, ever since Gore and President Clinton first came into office in 1993. According to a Friday story in the Washington Times: Rep. Cynthia A. McKinney, in her fourth term from Georgia, said she found out only last week that the Clinton-Gore administration had placed a ceiling on the number of black Secret Service agents who could be assigned to protect Gore, who is the Democratic Party's nominee for president. "Gore's Negro tolerance level has never been too high," she wrote on her congressional Web site. "I've never known him to have more than one black person around him at any given time. I'm not shocked, but I am certainly saddened by this revelation." The congresswoman said she learned about the limit of black agents permitted to guard Gore from a group of agents bringing a racial-discrimination suit against the Clinton-Gore Treasury Department, the mother agency of the Secret Service. McKinney said she was troubled that the black agents had received no response from Gore or his staff about their complaints, even after the vice president and his staff had been informed. "That these black officers had no response from Gore's staff is symptomatic of a larger problem," she said. "Gore would like these problems to just go away, but they'll never go away if they're not addressed." Ron Schmidt, an attorney representing the agents, said those black agents who complained about the Gore cap were threatened with retaliation. He said at least six "less qualified, less experienced" white agents were named over more-qualified black agents to informal supervisory positions on Gore's security detail - assignments that boost an agent's chances for promotion. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ V.P. Algore shamelessly fabricates father's civil rights record Politics/Elections News - Source: The Houston Review -Published: 8/13/99 Author: R.D. Davis FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1999 Vice President Gore Shamelessly Fabricates Father's Civil Rights Record By R.D. DAVIS It is easy to control the minds of a people. All one has to do is change history by lying about the past. This is exactly what has happened with the legacy of former Democratic U.S. Senator Al Gore, Sr. of Tennessee - the father of our current vice president - and his mythical "support" of civil rights. In a speech to the NAACP and most recently in his speech at the National Urban League Conference in Houston, Vice President Gore said his father lost his Senate seat because he supported civil rights legislation. Fellow black Americans, let me set history straight. Al Gore, Sr., together with the rest of the southern Democrats, voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Congressional Quarterly reported that, in the House of Representatives, 61% of Democrats (152 for, 96 against) voted for the Civil Rights Act as opposed to 80% of Republicans (138 for, 38 against). In the Senate, 69% of Democrats (46 for, 21 against) voted for the Act while 82% of Republicans did (27 for, 6 against). All southern Democrats voted against the Act. In his remarks upon signing the Civil Rights Act, President Lyndon Johnson praised Republicans for their "overwhelming majority." He did not offer similar praise to his own Democratic Party. Moreover, Senate Minority Leader Everett Dirksen, an Illinois Republican, collaborated with the White House and the Senate leadership of both parties to draft acceptable compromise amendments to end the southern Democrats' filibuster of the Act. Al Gore, Sr. did not stop at simply voting against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In addition, Congressional Quarterly reported that Gore attempted to send the Act to the Senate Judiciary Committee with an amendment to say "in defiance of a court desegregation order, federal funds could not be held from any school districts." Gore sought to take the teeth out of the Act in the event it passed. Ostensibly, Senator Gore was "elated" at the idea of young Al, Jr. going to school with black children. In reality, however, the future vice president attended an elite private school. In the end, the Gore Amendment was defeated by a vote of 74-25. Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, one of President Bill Clinton's political mentors, was among the 23 southern Democratic senators and only one Republican voting with Gore for this racist amendment. Republican Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona voted against the Civil Rights Act because he was afraid the nation would be transformed into a "police state" as a result of some of its provisions. He did not want to throw out the proverbial "baby with the bath water." History, of course, labeled Goldwater a racist even though he voted against the Gore Amendment - an amendment devised to continue school segregation. If anyone in the Senate should be tagged as a racist, it should be those voting for the Gore Amendment. Why didn't history record Al Gore, Sr. and the other southern Democrats as racists? At least civil rights activist Andrew Young was forthcoming about this oversight in his book An Easy Burden. Young wrote, "The southern segregationists were all Democrats, and it was black Republicans...who could effectively influence the appointment of federal judges in the South." Young noted that the best civil rights judges were Republicans appointed by President Dwight Eisenhower. Young admitted, "These judges are among the many unsung heroes of the civil rights movement." History tends to unilaterally and falsely depict Republicans as racists when southern Democrats truly deserved this title. We now have southern Democrats as both President and Vice President. That would never be the case without the power of the lie and the power of the liberal news media to alter people's perceptions. Lies can enslave men, but the truth shall set them free. I challenge you, the reader, to take the time to research the facts about our past in publications like Congressional Quarterly and An Easy Burden. Once you educate yourself, you can no longer be deceived by the fabulists. No longer will you be "gored" by a lie. ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe send blank email message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or to change your preferences, go to: http://www.topica.com/lists/forcedaltruism/prefs Shared by Kay Lee 2613 Larry Court Eau Gallie, Florida 32935 MAKING THE WALLS TRANSPARENT http://www.zyworld.com/kay~lee/garywaid.htm ********************************************************* A Project of the JOURNEY FOR JUSTICE http://www.journeyforjustice.org -- ============================ -- CUT OUT THE MIDDLEMEN -- JUST VOTE FOR A CORPORATION ============================ <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
