This is an ever growing opportunity of conservatives to appeal to those who see the individual as the solution for most problems.

Wow. Very encouraging news.

60% of African Americans surveyed said blacks often faced discrimination when they applied for jobs or housing

What do they expect when they strut in looking like gangstas with do-rags, pants hanging down to their knees, speaking ebonics, and grabbing their nether regions?

the values of middle-class African Americans are more closely aligned with those of middle-class whites than those of lower-income blacks, the poll by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center found.

Wait a minute... Another article reaches a different conclusion... about the same study? Here:

Hmmm...I’d like to know more about the survey before I cheer.

[RockinRight]

Encouraging, and the exact opposite of what I read in an article last night that I then posted.

A majority of black Americans blame individual failings -- not racial prejudice -- for the lack of economic progress by lower-income African Americans

Sloooooowwwwwwwwwly, the tide begins to turn. Jessuh & Rev'n Al gonna has to get real jobs if'n dis keep up.

So there’s hope. Now we need the blacks to dump the democrat party and other liberals which keep them down, and lift themselves out of the hole that liberals have put them in.

A very, very important step towards moving up, forward, away, and out of poverty.
Both these poverty and welfare preaching apostles Jackson and Sharpton feed on poverty and would lose their very base of existence when their current helpless adherents move up and away from this never ending welfare cycle.

If TRUE -— very heartening and uplifting..

Perhaps there is hope they can get the rest OFF the DNC plantation of doom and gloom.....

Too many fine blacks in America have contributed too much and spilled too much blood for the Republic to remain enslaved by the DNC and anchored in the despair of DNC dependency....

I’ll really celebrate if they ever work up the courage to figuratively hang their Jesse Jacksons, Al Sharptons and Calipso Louie Farrakhans — shut down the NAACP, Congressional Black Caucus and become simply AMERICANS.

A majority of black Americans blame individual failings -- not racial prejudice -- for the lack of economic progress by lower-income African Americans

I would welcome a move in this direction but must say if this is true it is not reflected in voting patterns, support or opposition to the liberal agenda, to socialist welfare schemes or to conservative proposals promoting individuality and self reliance over group identity politics.

With few exceptions blacks reliably come down on the side of liberal and leftist social engineers and propagandists time after time.
With the same few exceptions, when is the last time you have heard blacks or black organizations clammoring for lower taxes, less welfare and fewer taxpayer funded handouts to the lazy and indolent?

Look at the outrage recently directed at Bill Cosby when he dared to suggest that black students and parents are responsible for the failure of blacks to succeed in school or in jobs and careers.

The democrats are so confident their pandering to blacks will hold the black vote that they don't show any concern when republicans try to woo blacks away.

This is a real man bites dog story, considering the source.
