Watching a AMC special on Hatie McDaniels. The NAACP really tried to ruin her when she tried to play more white type roles and when she fought them the liberals in Hollywood kept her from getting work. Typical liberal double speak. The real reason why liberals hate vouchers is that black kids will then be able to go to school with the liberals kids. Can't have that now can we?

Reminds me of an explanation of why Senator Al Gore Sr. voted for voting rights,
but voted AGAINST the civil rights bill in the 1960s.
Gore Sr. wanted black people to vote for him.
But he didn't want to sit next to them at the lunch counter.
Typical Democratic-Socialist B.S.

IMHO

Actually the black community rejects vouchers based on the idea that anything that is not perceived as strengthening the 'community' is seen as weakening it.

Vouchers would take black children out of the black community and integrate them into successful mainstream America. They see there strength in numbers, their communal bond to each other, brothers and sisters all.

If one was to go off and find success on their own, well... that just one less voice in the chorus, one less vote at the ballot box. They enslave themselves to a degree with this obsolete survival skill.

This same community/cultural defence mechanism is what drives the black community to demagog and label all successful blacks as "Uncle Tom's". Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Jesse Lee Peterson, the list is endless. Liberals on the otherhand, whether Charlatan or Dupe just go along with whatever the black community espouses right or wrong to get votes or suppress some coerced guilt complex respectively.

All in all, Liberals could care less about improving anything.

In one sentence, you have put your finger on the problem the liberals see with vouchers. I hadn't thought of it until now, it makes perfect sense.
