Tavis is too serious. I agree that his views on the state of America are awesome, but, it's like he has no sense of humor at all. I'm surprised to see him smiling on that picture. It just seems like he's one of those brothers who likes to argue all of time. |

If this is true, and BTW, I thought Tavis already had a radio broadcast show? But, if this is true, and he is not "running" off some punk shyt, then I am happy for Tavis! I mean people, come on, I enjoyed him on the TJMS, but should he stop his life and advancements because of the show? I don't think so. Because his leaving was so abrupt, or at least we were made to think it was, just announced Friday, then I REALLY wonder what's up? Could a disagreement on voting for Barack or Hillary be that serious? |

You should check out blackamericaweb.com. Tom Joyner has a blog on it. Here it is below:
Tavis Smiley Quits the TJMS
Date: Friday, April 11, 2008
By: Tom Joyner
Well, you did it. This isn’t the way you wanted it to happen, but it happened anyway. Just like I knew it would.
I got a call from Tavis on yesterday. And he told me he was quitting the show. He told me the reason was that he was tired and has a lot of things going on, and he feels that now is a good time to leave the show.
We all know that isn’t the real reason he’s leaving the show. The real reason is that he can’t take the hate he’s been getting regarding the Barack issue — hate from the black people that he loves so much. He needed to feel the love. We all do, whether it’s from our radio audience or from people we know personally. He wasn’t feeling any love, so he quit.
A while back, he told us that I don’t speak for him. But this morning, since he isn’t here to speak for himself, I think it’s my job as a colleague and a friend. And maybe this time, you’ll really listen to me.
Tavis truly loves black people. I tried to tell you that. The hate he’s been getting hurts. He’ll never admit that, but it’s true.
And here’s something you may not want to admit: Black people need Tavis. You may not agree with what he has said, but he said it because he has love for black people. I’ll admit that sometimes listening to him was like trying to figure out the DaVinci Codes. I’ll also admit that I wanted Tavis to show a little more love to Barack Obama, and I was frustrated over his failure to do so. But what Tavis was saying made us think. It had us talking, it had us listening to a different point of view, and it was damn good radio. Tavis on the radio not saying everything that we want him to say is a lot better than not having Tavis on the radio at all. “The Tom Joyner Morning Show” without Tavis gives our listeners one less reason to tune in, and in case you don’t know, all of us in radio -- and in black radio especially -- are in a battle for our lives. We need good, controversial, compelling radio, and Tavis brought that.
When Tavis put the first “Covenant” book together, he was on a mission to hold whoever led this nation accountable to black people and to things that were critical to us. At the time, he had no idea that Barack Obama was going to run for president. His goal was for EVERY presidential candidate to answer to every covenant in the book during this campaign. He has said all along that he is holding Barack and all candidates accountable. Dr. King would have done the same thing.
When asked what Dr. King would want him to do on this campaign, Barack has said Dr. King would want him to address the issues. That’s all Tavis was asking of him, and I think Dr. King would have been proud of Tavis.
But because Tavis has not come out and said, “I am for Barack Obama,” everybody has started hating on him and threatening him and clowning him, and he can’t take it. Those of us who know him well know that. If you read his autobiography, “What I Know for Sure,” you know that no matter how deep his love is, if he feels that he’s right or that you’re wrong, he doesn’t back down. When his mom made him step down from being class president because his grades were slipping, he didn’t speak to her for two years. His own mama, a single parent of eight! He lived in her house, ate her food while he sat at her table and didn’t say a word to her for two years. All because he didn’t feel the love that his mom was trying to give him.
Tavis said the things he said about Barack because he wants the black people that he loves so much to think -- but to most of you, it sounded like hate, and it sounded like that to me too. Love or hate, real or perceived, none of it matters now. What matters is that Tavis wants to quit the TJMS -- and that’s real.
I want you to call him, e-mail him, text him, hug him, kiss him, get him in a corner and wrestle him and tell him how much you love him and appreciate his love for black people. Everyone needs that sometimes. And Tavis needs it right now. |

Theres not many doing this.
So hey I'm happy for this man no matter what he does.
I'm behind anyone who's behind me and supports and helps us blacks.

I also agree with some points you made. Tavis has spoken out for some of our issues. He has brought some black folks in the limelight that would not have been there if he hadn't acknowledged them.
But, the Barack issue with him gives me chills. Some kinda way I wish we could address our issues with each other behind closed doors. Malcolm said it is "uncouth" to do this out in the open. This is why we need our own private forum to address each other when we need to. |

I used to have a lot of respect for Tavis until I heard some of his comments in reference to barack Obama. Tavis comments gave credibility to the "crabs in a barrel" theory. I believe he has sold out his ethnic family by not publicly supporting Barack Obama who is more than qualified to lead this country. Tavis is a hater and a traitor in my view and its very disheartening because at one point I really liked the guy. |

izitjustme... what in your opinion makes obama more qualified than mccain or clinton to lead this country?
You sound ignorant saying he "sold out his ethnic family". So what are yo saying? If you're black, you automatically have to support Obama?
Calling Travis a traitor just shows your level of ignorance and the little you actually know on the issues. |

@imabadchic:
Good morning to you and I'll be the grown up since its obvious you can't be.
In my opinion Obama is the better candidate for the presidency because his agenda is not based on "politics as usual". The Clintons are great politicians but our country don't need another great politician...we need to make progress and changes in the way we do things. I believe Obama brings those things to the table and Hillary doesn't.
Calling Travis a traitor is simply calling it as I see it and obviously you don't see it that way. Does it make one or the other ignorant or is it simply that we don't agree? |

@verbal whatitface... I don't even believe I was making those comments to you, so I don't know why you took it upon yourself to comment.
It makes someone sound ignorant when they say "I believe he has sold out his ethnic family by not publicly supporting Barack Obama who is more than qualified to lead this country". So, I was asking the author of the comment to back up the comments.
And here you are opening your stupid mouth and you cant back it up either. And fyi, Clinton and Obama agree on several issues- their platform is similiar in many ways.
and Jr is almost right.. you're a dumb, nosy, verbal whore. |

With that being said I guess the old adage is true "IT TAKES A HO TO KNOW A HO"! That makes us like 'sorority sisters or something like that, uh? |

If I chose to go in to detail about my opinion of Obama and why he's the better candidate it would go so far over your head. Instead I chose to continue the conversation on being a whore bEcause you seem more knowledgeable and passionate on the subject of ho's. How long have you been a ho andhave you ever considered taking whoredom to a new level...you know, expand your horizons?
There's a whole lot to be said about ho's. There's good ones, bad ones, etc. Which one are you? Was it passed down to you through your ancestors...is it in your DNA? Please, do tell? |

Company Man "Coon" There are still many crabs in the basket. Nobody really cares what Travis thinks. But, where are some of our other so-called prominent black personalities. Cosby, Sharpton, Bond, Powell, Lee, Judge Mathis,Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer, Judge Joe Brown,(Johnson, another coon).Denzel,Samuel Jackson, Mos Def, Russell Simmons, Martin Luther King 3rd. Dexter King, etc.It's sad that when a black man is trying to do and make a positive change in this world. He has to face the struggle alone. Or are they all still under the estimation that since our "First Black President, Bill Clinton is Hillary husband, she is entitled. I don't think so, point of interest to you HillBilly lovers. The real 3:00 a.m. call was from Ruwanda asking from help from the U.S. to help stop the conflict. Bill Clinton who was president at the time, stated that the U.S. didn't find the INCIDENT important enough to send military forces over there. Subsequently, 800,000 black were slaughtered. I'll tell you Clinton lovers this, if 800,000 jews had been slaughtered, during his administration he (Bill) could not live, or be welcomed under any circumstances among them. |

Tavis did do a lot in bringing important issues and protests to the forefront for black people.
BUT, when after 400yrs exactly (from last year 1607) blacks were brought over here, we have a black man who AFTER 400 YEARS, could actually run this thang and be President the most powerful person on the planet earth... he wants to play devils advocate and make us see both sides; the good and bad about Obama. Well, we couldn't and can't afford the negatives, we have Foxnews and the Republicans and some sorry black leaders to point out all the dirt they can find on Obama.
My thing and most other I speak with is wait until Obama is sworn in January 9, 2009, and did complain, but right now lets have his back 1000%.
YES WE CAN! and sorry Tavis you should have listened to the voices of millions telling you they didn't want to hear your negative stuff about Obama.
Good luck though. |
