Bishop E. W. Jackson

NORFOLK, Va. (WordNews.org) Oct. 17, 2012 – The head of STAND is urging black Christians to leave the Democratic party.
Bishop E.W. Jackson has issued his called in an online video titled “Exodus Now,” which has been viewed 1.1 million times. Laura Ingraham, Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh have all played the message to black Christians.
In August, a NBC/Wall Street Journal poll found Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney 0 percent of the black vote.
However, earlier this month, actress Stacy Dash of Clueless fame tweeted her support for Romney and received a flood of criticism from blacks who tweeted such comments as: “RACIAL DRAFT: I LIKE TO REQUEST A TRADE TO SEND STACEY DASH TO THE CAUCASIANS TO ACQUIRE BILL CLINTON TO THE BLACKS.” Another wrote: “We’ve been letting you slide for years! It’s OVER.”
Jackson believes the Exodus Now movement could have a significant impact on the election as black Christians respond. He has called the Democratic Party “anti-Christian, anti-God, anti-Bible, anti-family and anti-life.”
“The response has been overwhelmingly positive among Christians, black and white,” Jackson said. He has received emails from black ministers all over the country indicating that they will not vote for the Democratic ticket because the Party has deeply offended them, particularly by making “same-sex marriage” part of its platform.
“I have been pleasantly surprised at the expressions of support coming from many black pastors and church members,” Jackson said. “I have spoken in numerous black churches and been interviewed on a variety of black media. Most agree the statements and policies of the Democratic Party and the Obama administration is blatantly anti-Christian.”
STAND begins radio advertising this week to take the message to gospel and Christian radio stations. Spots will air in Virginia, Jackson’s home, and several other states.
“Let there be no mistake, the upcoming election provides a context, but not the purpose,” he said. “We have plans beyond any election. This is about saving a generation and a nation.”
