What ... offer the GOP blessing to one group of freeloaders by taunting them with the prospect of being called ‘Conservatives’ (a title neither group comprehends or respects) JUST to spite another group of equally demanding and anti-American freeloaders?
Really?
What a waste of time and effort.
Neither group will ever BE actual Conservatives ... and the GOP has been unsuccessfully pandering to black voters for donkey’s years!
The GOP talks about big tent by changing their principles to bring in more people. Instead Ronald Reagan believed in getting people to join the republican party based on shared beliefs in conservative values.
Abortion is killing the influence the black community has in society. They can be made to see that liberals have sold them an anti-God bill of goods on abortion. As to gay marriage, blacks are way more conservative and they understand the importance of religion in life unlike most of the rest of the democrat party. That, combined with immigration would make them the natural allies Reagan talked about.
It’s not like conservatives don’t have to deal with part time believers already. Look at the libertarians. They share some conservative beliefs and have other liberal ones. You don’t have to be 100% pure in philosophy but you should at least share the philosophy.
Right now, for whatever reason, the republican party is running from the very values that conservatives and blacks share. They want to bring in illegals which is very bad for the black community and they are trying to go with the flow on gay marriage. As long as they continue on this direction, neither blacks or conservatives will be willing to go with them.
