As Overseen By Angree Bruther Angree Bruther Comments in red Leaving the gym Thursday night I raced home in order to see if Kwame would beat the system and win in The Apprentice. Mind you, I have not seen one total episode of the show. As I was driving home and talking to a friend, he made a good point that came to light by the end of the night: Its all a bunch of propaganda. It was never meant for Kwame to win. They placed him in the final two episodes for ratings, excitement, and to pull new viewers. By placing him in the finals you could bet on more black viewers (like me), Harvard University viewers and of course haters of “Kwame like” people to watch. On top of those viewers, you have your regular viewers who just watch it because they got caught up in the black hole of reality shows that we are all guilty of. So my friend was adamant that Kwame, as a black man, would NEVER win besides, “We already have Rueben, what more do we want!” He also pointed out how, if you look at who Trump surrounds himself with, you do not see a brother, sister, chico, or chica in the crew unless you are counting the caddie at the golf resort that made a brief appearance. Totally disagreeing with my friend, I settle in to watch the show. Kwame had to win. The office pools had him as a winner as well as the news analyst on NBC. On top of that, Kwame has the education, experience and overall personality to win. Besides, Kwame had to win for every corporate black man and woman in America. He had to win over the system just like the Velvet Teddy Bear did last year. So I’m sitting in front of my TV ignoring phone calls from people who obviously didn’t realize history was about to be made and sitting and waiting and here comes Omarossa. One quick sentence on this chick because she doesn’t deserve no more than a sentence: Either she thought she had a chance of taking over the game from Kwame and winning ,she really is mentally ill or someone, (producers, Trump or whoever), planted some ideas in her head to do evil. I think I will go with the screwed in the brain answer. Moving on, in the 2nd hour, Trump swiftly and efficiently decided who the winner was in one question. “Why didn’t you fire Omarossa?” Trump asked. “Who knew you could fire someone!” I asked myself. I didn’t know nor did Kwame, but of course you could, after the fact. So Trump and others went on to say that Kwame should have “micromanaged” more, showed more aggressiveness, and stepped up to handle his employees.
