Al Sharpton: Black Voters Should Punish GOP

As long as blacks have closed minds, why bother? Fat Al's mind was made up long ago. Its no use courting people who won't give you a hearing. And the black vote happens to be monolithically Democrat as a matter of course. So where is the incentive for conservative outreach to the black community?

I don’t want to belabor the point except to say there is little republicans can do to get the black vote.

I don't want to labor on it either, however what's better or worse in a vote if it's cast on a black ballot as long as the lettering contrasts enough to make it legible? ; )

Just keeping the slaves on the plantation.

It is insulting to the black community that these charlatans claim to represent them.

It's insulting to any legal citizen of American that is labeled anything else but an American.

Politics aside, thats what we all are.

Al Sharpton and the likes of Jesse Jackson are more politician than American.

It’s Blacksploitation I tell you.

Thing is, if people want to believe this moron, then they get what they deserve.

"Republicans have to lay out their policies and court the African-American vote. We need to have our interests debated in the market place."

Republicans explain policies regularly in many venues. Apparently black voters don't listen unless they are being 'courted'. Their interests are the same as other Americans. BTW, when was the last time that a Republican received even a polite response at a NAACP sponsored function? Sharpton only wants Republicans to show up so that they can ridicule them even more than usual. Frankly, I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of Sharpton, Jackson, et al.

...Civil rights leader Al Sharpton said Thursday black voters should punish Republicans who fail to show for presidential candidates' forums hosted by the National Urban League and the NAACP.

"As long as white folk don't come around to kiss my ass...."

I like votes for conservatives from most anywhere.

Republicans suck so bad.

WOW!

I'll have to remember that and take it personally when my favorite candidate is a Republican and I cast a vote for them.

My neighbor sucks! (He must be a Republican, eh?)

What about candidates that won’t go on Fox News.

They lose audience...

This “only 8% of blacks vote Republican” canard needs some updating.
1)Most of the voter fraud is committed in the large cities dominated by Democrats.
2)Most of the heavily black precincts are controlled by Democrats.
3)Much of the fraud occurs when the black Democrat vote is inflated and black Republican vote is undercounted.
( see the precinct by precinct tally vs. registrations for the disputed counties in Florida 2000 )
My own observations led me to believe that the black Republican voter is the most likely voter to have his vote nullified through fraud.
In a fair election, the black vote will split 75/25. Still overwhelmimgly Democrat, but that’s not 92/8.

Oh Al.....You were funnier when you were still wearing jogging suits and your hubcap size medal.

I honestly do not understand the mentality of people who would follow the same failed leaders for year after year for decades.

I guess we all like to hear those who agree and support what ever opinion we have for a particular belief.

But it seems to me that Blacks continually shoot themselves in the proverbial foot when it comes to selecting those who should lead them to victory.

This dispassionate miscalculation of leadership for years on end is rampant where ever Blacks are in a majority.

There are examples all over the world, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Sudan being just a few.

It is sad that so many could be duped so badly by the Charlatans such as Malik Brown, Louis Farahakan, Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton.

Also, those being duped by the likes of Osama Obama amazes me.

He is a guy with a dubious background with little experience who basically stands for nothing.

Obama has the tainted scent of a race baiting enabler from what I can glean from his back ground and beliefs.

Yet the likes of an Oprah and other Hollywood airheads who should know better, jump on his band wagon as the second coming of a black savior.

At some point a majority of Blacks are going to have to say to the likes of the racists enablers that enough is enough and it’s time for these charlatans to get over their narcissistic traumas.

Just the lowly opinion of a red state wannabe.

Flame away but telling the truth is not always easy.
