Sonnie Johnson calls out for a black conservative renaissance

Heard her today on the Sirius XM Patriot Channel. She was trashing the Democrat Party, but also the Republican Party for their missed opportunities.

Also want to point to this one as well.

Missed opportunities? How do you serve a community whose heroes are Steph Curry, LeBron (high school drop-out) James and Colin Kaepernick? Who consider education “being White.” Who avoid marriage like the plague. Who believe welfare is their due. Who consider ebola an ethnic treasure. Who claim prison convicts are martyrs to the cause. Whose Hollywood heroes are incapable of crafting an uplifting movie. Whose music artists are either pornographic or just this side of it. Its the black community (sic) that revels in missed opportunities.

You would have had to listen to her on the radio today, but basically the missed opportunities was Republicans sitting back and allow the Marxists formulate their view of America for black people. That Republicans couldn’t or wouldn’t promote conservative values, because conservative values work for all who follow them, to the black communities.

I only get to listen to her when I’m on the road, because I have Sirius only in my truck. But she makes great arguments against the stupidity Republicans and their lost opportunities.

I’d say more bad stuff about Republicans, but I don’t want to detract from her message.

Get serious. You say that “Republicans couldn’t or wouldn’t promote conservative values,...” She should say, “Black community leaders (perhaps an oxymoron) can’t or won’t promote conservative values.” It is still a truism that you can lead a horse to water but can’t make it drink. Another truism, you can rail against the bell curve but you can’t deny it.

To the black community. In other words they wouldn’t engage them at all. You really have to listen to her to understand. All I tried to give you was a quick synopsis of what I could remember. While there is no doubt that the race hustlers, who are really nothing but Marxists, have their ear because the Republican Party left a void and they filled it. So they have perverted the majority of the black race to believe that they can only make it with government help. That because of “racism” they cannot make it on their own. I really could care less if you listen to her or not. That is certainly your choice.

Me too, and I really only got a short intro to her today on my way to the store. She made a lot of sense, but I might find areas where I disagree with her.

Me too. I might have heard her before but not on the Patriot channel.

Not all of any race are the same. Many Blacks do not vote because they disagree with the Democrat Party agenda but feel the Republicans don’t want them.

At a Republican local party dinner in IL, a Black Republican who looks like a Marine from haircut to shiny shoes started to sit down in an empty chair at one of the circular tables of 8 chairs. The establishment Republican, who works for the IRS, tipped the chair over to lean against the table and said “This chair is taken.” The Marine could handle it and went to another table ... a better table, in fact.

After the Marine left, the establishment Republican said “I have to work beside them all day. I’ll be damned if I’ll sit beside them outside of work.”

This Marine could handle it and has done OK since then. But many Blacks encounter things like this and just try to stay invisible.

The RNC came out with their report that the GOP should do more to attract the young, the minorities and women. So Erika Herold, Miss America, a lawyer, a pro-life activist also active in Chuck Colson’s prison ministry runs for Congress.

The RNC and 2/3 of the local Republican establishment could not have it. The establishment made overt racist statements against her.

The establishment owed that vacancy to the establishment staffer who successfully put the lid on exposure of establishment corruption in Denny Hastert’s House. So the best candidate for the Congressional seat was shafted.

In my heavily minority area of a Chicago suburb, I got 100% of the Hispanic vote* and about 35% of the Black vote. I left that suburb and turned it over to the Black preacher’s wife. she again got 100% of the Hispanic vote* and must have got at least 87% of the Black vote because I know she did not get 87% of the Divorced and promiscuous white women vote. (*except 1 Puerto Rican woman)

In the heavily Black area of Atlanta, Trump only got 10% or 20% of the vote, depending on the precinct. But the Republican candidate for mayor got 55% and 65% depending on the precinct.

In short, there are plenty of Blacks who would leave the plantation.... Not a majority yet across a large city or state, but cutting the 90-10 to 60-40 is very doable and should be done.

Here’s the reality of the black middle class and working class: they firmly believe that without affirmative action and minority set-asides, that they would not have their current standard of living.

And they are totally correct. Affirmative action means they can get into college with grades that a white guy would be rejected for, and get positions that a white applicant would be rejected for.

The Republicans cannot out bid the Democrats on affirmative action. The Republicans cannot out bid the Democrats on social benefits. Any attempt to do so would lose more people from their base than they would gain from black voters.

I believe she is correct...the Republicans should do more to get minorities to vote for them...we have cowards as leaders, as they don’t want to offend leaders like Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton or others.

I just happened to have read Revelation 7:9 on another forum minutes ago: "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands."

I don't want to separate it too much from its context, but if your sense of humor is anything like mine, that "I'll be damned" becomes even more striking.
