*We need a charming, authentically black authentcally conservative candidate to run against “O” and paint him as the “faux” candidate who is actually white.*
That’s a recipe for ballot-box suicide. Blacks will never vote for a Republican, ever. All the Dems would do is paint the black GOP candidate as an Uncle Tom.
Yes and I have to be honest, knowing Alabama, if the Republican Party ever nominates a black candidate to the Presidency, at least in the next 10 years, white turnout in this state will depress dramatically. It’s just a fact of life and that would be true across much of the South. It’s why the black candidate that is running now doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell.
