David Duke Endorses a Former Black Panther for Congress

Tweet

Oddly enough, David Duke has endorsed a black man. Duke is best-known for his affiliation with the Ku Klux Klan. Duke’s announcement in support of former Black Panther Charles Baron has raised eyebrows, since it’s hard to imagine Duke standing with any African American, let alone one that once belonged to the Panthers. But there is an interesting political dynamic going along with the endorsement and when you think about it, it all makes sense…..well, sort of.

When former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, David Duke, announces his support for former Black Panther, Charles Barron, in a Congressional race, then you know the world as you know it has changed.

Duke is an avowed white supremacist who ran in both the ’88 and ’92 presidential primaries. Even though Duke is from Louisiana, he announced his support for Barron’s 8th Congressional district in New York via YouTube.
