Who says change never comes to Harlem...Well the more things change, the more they stay the same...
The great grandson of legendary Harlem Congressman Adam Clayton Powell is challenging beleaguered Rep. Charles Rangel, who recently lost a key committee chairmanship amidst scandal over his personal fianances. The political process in these urban one-party districts is very closely held and we will see if the seat is indeed a legacy seat. Rangel and Powell IV will square off in a September primary.

Mr Powell has to be more honest than Charlie Rangel. I wish him success in his efforts to unseat the crook.
Perfect.
Adam Clayton Powell Jr. was as big a crook as Charlie (and the reason he was replaced).
It is inconceivable how both of these buffoons with their Cab Calloway good looks managed to hoodwink Harlem voters for so many decades.
Maybe the grandson can stay honest longer.
Hey, I love Cab Calloway. Cab Calloway was a friend of mine. You ain't no Cab Calloway. At least Cab Calloway had a job. He was a Moocher. I think that's actually a union title in the NYC Dept of Corrections. Its like a counselor.
Ya can'ts tell me that Powell is any more of a crook than Rangel. Please tell me you can't.
Which Powell?
