Republican Presidential Candidate Jack Shepard
witnesses
Racism against persons of color at Democratic Global Convention 2000
I, have chosen to be a Born Again Republican;
because I was very disappointed that not one of the
Black Delegates at the Democrats Aboard Regional
Caucuses and Global Convention in Paris, April,
2000 was chosen to be a delegate to the Democratic
National Convention in Los Angeles in August of
2000.

I and another delegate from Democrats Aboard of
Italy wished to vote for Ricki Stevenson pictured
above talking with me during a break; but the
leadership of the Democrats Aboard convention had
already made a deal with I was not consulted or
included in.

We were hands a list of people from various countries
to vote for. The next night at the farewell dinner I
apologized to Ricki for being forced to vote for a list
of candidates that I did not even know. The Black
Delegates were really in shock. They asked how
could it be; that not one Black Delegate from all the
American Democrats living Aboard, in all the
countries of the World and not one was chosen.

That why I became a " Born Again Republican"

Dr. JACK SHEPARD AS A BORN AGAIN REPUBLICAN
During the Presidential Election all I heard from the Democratic National Committee was:
"THE URGENT NECESSITY OF CAMPAIGN FINANCING LEGISLATION REFORM"

and now the Democratic Party chooses as its new chairman the very symbol of soft money campaign fund
raisers in Mr. Terence McAuliffe.

The members of the Democratic Committee literally forced former Mayor Maynard Jackson of Atlanta who
also wished to be Democratic National Chairman to throw his support to Mr. Terence McAuliffe by blocking his
election.

Mr. Terence McAuliffe was chosen Chairman of the Democratic Committee only because he knows where and
how to get money instead of former Mayor Maynard Jackson a much more qualified and experienced politician

but a

BLACK CANDIDATE

without these big money connections.

I, Jack Shepard was an elected delegate from "Democrats aboard of Italy to the Democrats Aboard Regional
Caucuses and Global Convention in Paris on April 2, 200
CANDIDATE JACK SHEPARD LISTENING TO
RICKI STEVENSON;
A DEMOCRAT ABOARD DELEGATE LIVING IN
FRANCE EXPLAIN THE HISTORY OF THE
STATUTE OF LIBERTY, DURING A COFFEE BREAK
AT THE DEMOCRATS ABOARD REGIONAL
CAUCUSES AND GLOBAL CONVENTION IN PARIS,
APRIL 2, 2000.
I was very impressed with Ricki's knowledge of Black
History and Paris. Ricki Stevenson is the director of
"Black Paris Tours" My fellow Democrats if you are in
Paris, I would highly recommend a tour of Paris with;
"Black Paris Tours".

Just email Ricki Stevenson,
"Black Paris Tours"

I, Dr. Jack Shepard am not pleased and I do not approve
of the Democratic National Committee's position to
continue to criticize George W. Bush's election as the
43rd President of the United States as illegitimate.

Mr. McAuliffe was elected as Chairman of the
Democratic National committee only because he is a
close friend of Ex-President Clinton and the most prolific
fundraiser in Democratic history.
This sends all the wrong signals to my fellow Americans.
DR. JACK SHEPARD'S
STATEMENTS  


I can be quoted as saying, "I and the
Democratic Party should not take the
BLACK vote for grant it. I was very
disappointed that not one of the
Black Delegates at the Democratic
Aboard Regional Caucuses and
Global Convention in Paris got
chosen to be a Delegate to the
Democratic National Convention in
Los Angeles in August.

Because of encountering overt racism
at the higher levels of the Democratic
Party at the Democratic Aboard
Regional Caucuses and Global
Convention; I was so disappointed
that not one of the Black Delegate
from Democratics Aboard from any
country got chosen to be a delegate to
the Democratic National Convention
in Los Angeles;

I  left the Democratic Party. To join
the Republican Party of Abraham
Lincoln and I became a "Born again
Republicain"

Now that the election in over I fell
much freer to discussion what
happened to another delegate and
myself from Democrats Aboard of
Italy. We both wished to vote for Mrs.
Ricki Stevenson, a Black Democrat
Aboard delegate from France; to be a
Delegate to the Democratic National
Convention in Los Angeles in August.
We were told the deal was already
made. The delegates to the Democratic
National Convention were already
decided for us (before the vote) and if
we did not vote for the list of candidate
handed us we would never be chosen
again to represent "Democrats Aboard
of Italy" to any future Democrats
Aboard Regional Caucuses and Global
Convention. I apologized to Mrs.
Stevenson after the vote when she was
not chosen.

That I and another delegate from
"Democrats Aboard of Italy" were
forced by the Democratic Leaders of
the Global Convention and Regional
Caucus to vote their candidates really
started me think what has the
Democratic Party become.

After my personal experiences with the
selection process now used in the
Democratic Party I find it no surprise
that former Mayor Maynard Jackson a
BLACK candidate for Chairman of the
Democratic National Committee was
forced to threw his support to Mr.
Terence McAuliffe.

I consider Mr. Terence McAuliffe a
hypocrite when he, Mr. Terence
McAuliffe, "bluntly challenged the
legitimacy of President George W.
Bush's election and pledged to turn
Democratic grievance over the results
into a mobilizing force to win Congress
next year and the White House in
2004."
I, Jack Shepard ask Mr. Terence
McAuliffe when he says, "We will
prove there is victory after denial"
how do Mrs. Ricki Stevenson and
former Mayor Maynard Jackson of
Atlanta feel when they and many
other

BLACKS are know being denied
and passed by for important
position the Democratic Party.

Why does not Mr. Terence
McAuliffe understand and conclude
that the public wants to move past
the ill will over the post-election
maneuvering that settled the
election.
He and the Democratic Party must
start to work with President Bush
to unite our country and enable
President Bush to be an effective
leader especially with the very
confusing and dangerous situation
in the Middle East that President
Clinton left for President Bush.

Now is the time to work together
and pool all our energies and
resources to work for world peace.


I have been working and praying
for peace in the Middle East and
Europe for over 30 years.

God bless you,

Dr. Jack Shepard  - Febuary 11,
