Because race comes before everything to most Black people.
Geee, I wonder how it is then that Jesse Jackson didn’t make it past the primary season when he ran......
This condemnation of people based on skin color has to stop. It HAS too. There is no way things are going to change if this continues.
I mean come on - we have to step up!
Shirley Chisholm was a black Democrat in 1972,,,,did everyone with her color vote for no one else? No! She won 28 delegates in the primaries.
1992, 1996, 2000 and 2008 Alan Keyes,,how far did he get?
2204, Carol Mosely Braun and Al Sharpton...how far did they get?
Did every minority who didn’t vote for Romney do so because reasons of skin color, or are we going to continue to grip about African Americans only. This is one point the party needs to work on. Truly.
The theory that African Americans vote ONLY for African Americans just does not hold water historically. Don’t the Obama PR machine draw us down that road again. It’s a lose-lose position. I say this as a person who cannot stand Obama. I often call him “Dear Leader”
Have fun wasting your time being delusional and referencing outliers.
The first requirement for 95% of blacks is to be a democrat. If you’re black well that’s just icing on the cake. That’s why the black who ran for president didn’t get anywhere. Nationally there are not that many blacks that vote. You are talking about 12% of the population, and how many of them vote?
