I think you're too quick to underestimate how clever criminals can be. Keep an open mind, theres still alot've time left until the world ends.
Organized crime groups around the world hold considerable political influence. The Italians, the Russians, the Albanians, the Colombians, the Mexicans, etc. But the United States is a different story, as politicians are more accountable. And even if a crime group managed to gain political power in the U.S., it would likely not be a black group, as they have never been tied into the pipeline of power.
