Are Blacks Conditioned to Vote Democrat?
Illinois Review ^ | 11/24/2010 | Fran Eaton

Illinois' own Dr. Eric Wallace reprimands fellow black Americans in a recent controversial Freedom Journal's Magazine column for the community's misguided devotion to Democrats. He compares voting for Democrats to Pavlov's conditioning experiments:

Iconic symbol of the fruits of liberalism. The crushing of the human spirit.

The answer is yes. I read that the majority of black Americans were Republicans, 1870-1935, because they knew that Republicans wanted to ban racial discrimination and that Democrats encouraged racial discrimination. During the Depression, when the majority of Blacks were in poverty, they needed to use the New Deal help, to survive, so the majority of Blacks became Democrats. Now, the majority of Blacks are middle class, and they vote for Democrats because their parents and grandparents were Democrats.

“The democrats keep Blacks poor and blame it on Republicans.”

So true, and yet the Republicans NEVER do or say anything that would disprove this. They are a victim of their own pathetic ways of doing nothing to defend themselves.

I think one of the reasons that the classification methods commonly known as 'profiling' has become so well known is, it's easier to spell than 'stereotyping'.

So in 'typical white person' tradition, my 'stereotypical' remarks are that over the many years I've been exhaling the gore-dreaded carbon dioxide, I have noted that blacks SEEM TO BE stereotypically very emotional, relying a great deal on pure feelings to cope with the world around them.

Having said that, that particular trait of relying on emotions makes one easily lead, easily whipped up into a feeding frenzy by the likes of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and barak obama...all 'community OGASMizers'.

I see the same 'leaders' who whip them up into a frenzy about something none of them even remember - namely, 'slavery' - have put themselves on the auction block and sold themselves in to slavery of the democrat massa's for entitlements, and the priviledge of not having to actually pay attention to the world outside their welfare check.

The democrat leaders - using their front men of 'community ogasmizers' know this and use it to their full advantage in keeping America in a continual state of racial unrest. They can't let 'racial harmony' take root, as it would erode the very base of their power over blacks.

Meanwhile, the white people are looking around and are very tired of the one-way street that the racemongers are trying to create, and I don't think the people are going to wait 400 years to declare their liberty, nor will they submit to 'slavery' in any form, by the democrats, the UN, or the tag team of soros/obama.

When you peel back the layers of that onion, you will see that the 'community ogasmizers', NAACP, Black Caucus, and other racebaiters are 'one note Johnny' organization...EVERYTHING about their total existence and power is based on political correctness and race. Logical arguments be damned.

Yes, the democrats have set up the new plantation, but the slim difference is they seem to be utilizizing an 'all-volunteer slavery force' to populate the fields they need tending.

A few shiny beads, free cheese and a constant flow of entitlements have replace the cotton fields and bull whips, but are probably just as effective at keeping them corrallede.

It's fairly safe to say - in a logical sense - that democrats own the black voters. The irony of it is they use the same arguments to fire them up, as they use to control them.

I think that is slowly changing, but it will take a while.

Blacks are no different than whites in this regard.

They have nothing in common, one is just a vote that can't be predicted except to say that it will usually go Republican, and the other is always the same, a 90% plus vote for democrats, totally predictable and inflexible.

It also ignores the totally unique event of the black vote always being for Republicans, including the typical 1932 election when blacks went only 23% for the Democrats, and then them instantly switching to a permanent Democratic vote in 1936 for the first time ever, giving the Democrats 71%, and doing that ever since.

Nothing duplicates that, or even resembles it.
