Meet Mia Love, The GOP’s newest House Servant
*(Via CNN) – To call Mia Love a minority is an understatement.
She’s a black woman who won an upset primary race to become the Republican candidate in Utah’s 4th Congressional District. If elected, she’d be the first black Republican congresswoman in the House of Representatives.
Love, who has attracted lots of national Republican support, also stands out because of her religion: She’s a Mormon. The politician is a poster child for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ campaign to present a more diverse face to a historically very white church.
“There are a lot of people who have tried to define me as a person,” Love, a daughter of Haitian immigrants, told CNN’s Kyra Phillips in an interview Tuesday. “I’m not a victim, and I don’t allow anybody to put me in a box.”

Read/watch this CNN report on Mia Love:

This is From Efrem; Now here’s the shade, what is it with SOME foreign Blacks who come to America and try to disrespect Black American while kissing the ass of white Americans? The point is that she left her community to be of ‘service’ to another, where they already have certain resources available to them. That’s what gets me. The people she represents is lily white and it does not surprise me that they support her because she promotes their interest. Her tagline about ‘not being a victim’ and not accepting ‘handouts’ is code word for Blacks who accept any kind of help from social programs, regardless of their situation. Basically, she’s not some kind of single mother on welfare with dozens of kids. She’s ‘different’ from those other black people. That’s where she lost me. It’s hard for me to take seriously anyone who was born and  Brooklyn, raised in Connecticut, and had to move to lily white Utah in order to “feel accepted.” Something about that strikes me as “bullshyt.”
But I noticed that even her campaign materials make mention of her father’s quote, Mia, your mother and I never took a handout. You will not be a burden to society. You will give back. This is her orientation. Well Miss Mia I never had a handout neither….a HANDUP YES, But OUT..NO!
It’s funny to me how Blacks like her who migrate from another country and benefit from the struggles of American born Blacks always have some kind of negative connotation about them. Obviously, she did not learn anything at the University that she was at except being a talking head for those who are white and want to recruit folks to Mormonism
And while it’s not just Haitians, they do tend to be color struck. They think that anything white or close to it is right and valued. Again, there are blacks here that think the way she does. I would never support someone like her for office any capacity and hope folks in Utah who have some common sense don’t vote her into a major political office either.
