As someone who was born in the seventies in North Carolina

We didn't grow up with separate water fountains, segregation, or Jim Crow laws. The KKK was considered a joke, even back then, and few people ever dropped the N-bomb in conversation unless they were reciting rap lyrics.

What a difference 20 years can make. I grew up in small town southern Missouri in the 50s and that's exactly what I saw.

I could cite numerous examples but anybody who grew up in that era and in that area knows what I'm talking about.

"For a lot of black Americans, a vote for the Democratic Party is a vote to lose their job to an illegal alien, trap their kids in a lousy school, and get criminals released back into their neighborhood."

These are all reasons for blacks to be as pissed off as pissed off can be, but I never see any indication that any of this even registers on their pissed off scale. So it's no wonder that this argument and others never get any traction with them. If you don't have a D (for Dim) next to your name, don;t bother, just move along.

If I was running for office I would do what everyone before me had done. I would ignore the black voter because there's nothing I can do or say to even have a chance of getting their vote.

Every campaign has a finite amount of resources and I would use them where they have the best chance of paying off. To do anything else would be stupid and fruitless.

Hawkins hits the nail on the head w/ this article (although he's not breaking any new ground with his opinions ... they've been brought up before).

Problem is, what % of the black community can we expect to read Townhall?

This dose of political reality unfortunately falls on deaf ears.

“...and 1 reason they won’t...race”

...that’s because they were raised to “never trust whitey”. From LJB to Carter to Obama.

There’s more to it than that.

Most sheeple support the ‘rats simply because the liberal ideology is all about “it’s not your fault, it’s someone else’s fault, and we’ll make it right for you with no effort on your part if you give us enough power”.

It’s gotten to the point now that: if your skin is WHITE, you can’t possibly NOT be racist.

This is the truth. I’ve heard it from black friends. -It’s just in our ‘nature’.

Wow. How times have changed...

black Americans make up 49% of the homicide victims in America.

And 52% of the killers.

Democratic Party "help" = "You are so worthless, so incapable, so helpless, so inadequate, so ignorant, so clueless, so stupid that you cannot possibly do anything of any significance without our "help."

So, here's a handout, go listen to some music, dance, sit around, buy some bling, get some gold for your teeth, get a tattoo, pull your pants down, make some babies out of wedlock, buy some smokes, buy some booze, bitch and complain about the Man holding you down, and sing some rap crap about how bad you got it and we will do it all over again next month.

You can thank us at the voting booth.

What about

(6) Slavery

(7) Jim Crow

(8) The Ku Klux Klan

(9) Segregation

(10> The Democratic White Primaries

(11) The escalating National Debt

(12) The open Mexican Border

(13) The staggering tax burdens

(14) The Frankenstein's Monster known as the Federal Government

(15) The self-serving laws passed by the Ruling Class in Congress that do not apply to the rest of the American people

(16) The staggering Washington burocracy

(17) The stiffled U.S. economy

(18) Laws prohibiting citizens from defending themselves in their own homes

(18) Decadence!

(19) Ineffective protection against illegal drugs

(20) The destruction of the greatest economy the world has ever known and the greatest, most powerful, and most just nation the world has ever known

(21) The Declaration of Independence

(22) The U.S. Constitution

(23) The Gettysburg Address

(24) The Emancipation Proclamation

(25) Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address

(26) Etc. etc. etc. et al.

The list goes on and on and on!

All (black and otherwise) Americans with functioning brains see Democrat politicians for exactly what they are--a self-serving Ruling Class, destroying the United States with their greed, dishonesty, and self-serving extravagance, pushing America into a hellhole of decadence, and tossing crumbs to us peasants to keep themselves in power, and will kick these parasitic Democrat politicians out of office as fast as possible!

And a very high percentage of abortion victims.

” In 2009, the average net worth for white households was $113,149 and $5,700 for black households. Great job, Democratic Party! “

what country did they survey, surely not the USA

There is no comparison of Republican racism to democrat racism. It was the democrats who favored slavery, who made the racist white only laws in cities, who are cheating young blacks from achieving good education, who destroyed black families by the millions with an evil, racist, welfare system. In my lifetime I have met few Republican and no conservative racists, but have met many democrat/liberal racists.

“free Escalades;”

LOL That’s a pretty standing joke in our family and we ALWAYS take bets when we see that vehicle on the road.
