The monolithic pro-Democratic black vote is a clear and present danger to America.
As recently as 1956, the GOP captured 39 percent of the black vote. If Republicans can seize just 20 or 30 percent of the black vote, the Democratic Party -- and its ability to pull the country to the left -- could be stopped, if not reversed.
"The 'black vote'?" I said to a white Republican politician who asked my advice. "I'll tell you how to go after it, but you won't do it."
"Try me," he said.
Politicians, both Democrats and Republicans, treat blacks like children. When a Republican addresses a black audience, you can make book on how long it takes before he refers to Martin Luther King, Jr. Either he marched with King or his father did, or the next-door neighbor of his barber's nephew used to mow the Rev. King's father's lawn.
As long as the black vote is a referendum on empathy, compassion and "civil rights," Republicans lose. Nobody can "feel your pain" like a spread-the-wealth, entitlement-expanding, "close-the-inequality-gap" leftist.
"The struggle for civil rights is over," I told him. "The good guys won. The battle now is against wrongheaded 'compassionate' policies. But the most important issue -- by far -- is education."
Republicans need to ask blacks, "Are you better off?" Are blacks better off sending their children to assigned government schools -- as demanded by the teachers unions and the Democratic Party?
Inner-city parents know that urban government-run schools have a nearly 50 percent dropout rate and that even the kids who graduate often cannot read, write, or compute at grade level. They know that poor teachers end up getting transferred to urban schools, where other parents are less likely to object to their incompetence.

Don’t confuse race game with facts.
" Massa will take care of you all".
I would appeal to them directly by pointing out how rat policies keep them in particular down. Republican candidates need to go to in front of black audiences and hammer it and dispel the democrat myths and expose them for the plantation bosses they are. And also emphasize to them the social issues that black voters are already conservative on.
Black voters are brainwashed to be democrats from birth. Their parents are democrats and tell them Republicans hate blacks. The public schools reinforce allegiance to socialism.
Most of them will not be reached with broad-based messaging. We need to get in their faces.
The fact is between 1865 and 1932 Blacks votes almost exclusively Republican because Republicans were the abolitionist party.
Then FDR and LBJ gave Blacks all the welfare goodies and put them on the gravy train to poverty and desperation.
Funny, for 400 years, Black folks had no welfare, and despite all the misery, racism and discrimination, still survived.
Then the Democrats gave them welfare and handouts and put them right back on the Democratic slave plantation. Being dependent on the government for survival is no different from slavery. We learned this from the Soviet Union, North Korea and China.
On the capitalist side, it didn’t help to have open borders and free trade policies that basically destroyed many industrial urban centers in the United States. But free trade and open borders probably wouldn’t have happened if the trade unions and Democratic politicians didn’t tax and regulate corporations to death to fund their corruption.
Stupid is as stupid does.
Our hope is that black Americans will all see that this President is not their ‘black’ President. Dump this lemon and go shopping for another car.
I think a real AMERICAN ‘black’ President would be great for the United States.
