Ever heard of Powell, Rice? What kind of idiotic statement is this?
Yes, I have heard of Colin Powell, Condi Rice, Rod Paige, Bill Cosby, Lynn Swan, Don King, Walter Williams, etc. and literally millions of other great American Blacks, both Democrat and Republican who are successful, honest, hardworking, talented and honorable folks. Problem is, that when Black folk follow leaders that preach hate, racism and division, they are bound to fail. Right now, the Congressional Black Caucus is mud with the powers that be, and rightfully so. If the CBC and the NAACP continue down the road they have set Blacks on, I can assure you, no good will come of their hatred path for American Blacks.
And....with Hispanics now, and for the forseeable future, the largest minority group in the USA, the majority of "poor" Blacks are falling further behind. Hispanics and Asians as groups, both understand the value and power of political diversification. Until Black folk get it, and dump some of their current leaders, the majority of Black Americans will remain at the bottom of the political, economic and opportunity totem pole, just as their Democrat "masters" wish and have kept them chained there for at least fifty years. The truth is there for the viewing. My friend, I am not bad mouthing Blacks, I am imploring them to be all that they can be in, this, the greatest country in the world. In the real world of today, being Black, Liberal and Democrat is neither cool or where it's at!!!
