DBCF President Lydia Hudson's Misinformation
From: Sarah Coutu - Santa Rosa DEC Chair and State Committeewoman & member of the DBCF and SRCDBC
The Democratic Black Caucus of Florida sent out a questionnaire to all of the FDP State Chair candidates asking for a response by noon last Friday. On Saturday, at their quarterly conference, the DBCF President erroneously reported that Stacey Patel, a candidate for chair, did not respond. This misinformation has caused people to feel that Stacey has been disrespectful by not taking the time to even acknowledge their questions. This has tipped the scales in favor of the other candidates.
---
---
This morning, I received proof Stacey not only responded on time, she responded with sincerity, well thought out responses, suggestions and ideas that will give minorities a stronger voice, a seat at the table, and true power under her leadership.
---
---
I am not certain why the DBCF reported this misinformation, but it creates a great disadvantage and disservice to Stacey's campaign. I’m sure the DBCF does not want to stand by a statement that has been proven inaccurate and misleading.
---
---
As member of the DBCF, I am calling on our President, Lydia Hudson, to make a public statement correcting this immediately. I am also asking the she and/or her surrogates call every DBC Caucus president, personally, to provide them with Stacey's responses and explain that Stacey did, in fact, send her responses and they were sent in on time.
---
---
This election is about the future of our party and the people of this state. We must be diligent and honest with the people of our organizations and provide them with current and accurate information. This misstatement has tipped the scales, whether intentional or not. We cannot afford that right now. We must continue to fight against our current administration with the most united and strong team as possible. Stacey recognizes that our current “power at the top structure” is not effective, nor inclusive. She is inclusive and believes in the power of ALL of us.

Please correct this false information that has been circulated.

I started this blog back in 2003 after seeing Howard Dean's courage in trying to stop US from going to war in Iraq and bring change to the Democratic Party. Here we are in 2017. Funny how I came across these 2 articles on the same day.
Howard Dean says it’s time for his generation of the Democratic Party to move over here
Millennial voters are the future of the your party and they don't like you. Keep doing the Same Old Shit, ignore The Signs and you will keep losing. But, you should be use to that by now.

"The more my community gets involved, the more pushback we get. In. every. freaking. way. Then Democrats come kissing ass for money and votes and asking people to run as D's. And you wonder why some wont? The entire party leadership right now should be ashamed."
