Black Politician Patrick Cannon, Who Persecuted 2011 AMREN Conference And Was Jailed For Corruption Now Making Comeback — With Endorsement Of Black Political Caucus

By James Fulford

This is Patrick Cannon, who was Mayor Pro Tem of Charlotte NC in 2011, and in what would be obvious Federal Civil Rights violation if the victims weren’t white, used his official position to prevent the 2011 American Renaissance Conference from happening. He later went to jail of Federal charges of accepting bribes — that’s his mugshot.

He’s making a comeback, because that’s what disgraced black politicians do: see the cases of Alcee Hastings and Marion Barry. And other black politicians are encouraging him. (BPC is the Black Political Caucus of Charlotte.)

Patrick Cannon said he was encouraged to run by NAACP’s Corine Mack and Rev. Dwayne Walker. He’s been appearing at BPC events for months. No dem candidates are attacking him. He has always been a serious candidate. The endorsement was not a surprise. Neither would be a win.

Briefly, hearing that American Renaissance was having a conference, with a hotel booked, with a contract, and all the usual things, Mayor Pro Tem Cannon told all the local hotels not to host the place, and the Sheraton, which was fully aware of what American Renaissance was trying to have a conferance about, cancelled, forcing American Renaissance to have what was left of their conference in a small restaurant:

Here’s our 2011 coverage:

• First, They Came For American Renaissance. Next, For Establishment Conservatives — But They Deserve It.
• American Renaissance Conference in Limbo: Charlotte City Councilman Patrick Cannon Reportedly Violated Group’s First Amendment Rights
• Jared Taylor’s Press Release: "An Appeal to the City of Charlotte and to Mayor Pro-tem Patrick Cannon"
• City of Charlotte, NC, to Whites: Drop Dead

In 2014, Cannon was arrested, charged, and jailed for taking bribes.

We covered this here — all right, we may have gloated a little:

• Is AMERICAN RENAISSANCE Foe Patrick Cannon The (Allegedly) Corrupt DEMOCRATIC Mayor Of Charlotte, NC, Or The Corrupt BLACK Mayor?
• Charlotte Needs New Mayor: "Before Voting For A Black Politician … "
• A Whole Lotta Democratic Corruption Going On (By Mostly Minority Pols)

Those were from March, 2014; this is from November.

After being convicted and sentenced, but before actually going to jail, Cannon, now a convicted felon, voted illegally:

Some people in Charlotte are unhappy about this:

But black voters may put him back in office anyway, which is not a good omen for the civil rights of white people in Charlotte.
