Yeah. Right. Go after the votes of a group that votes 85%+ for Democrats (95%+ in last two Federal Elections). It made more sense to go after Hispanic votes.
This clown is brilliant.

Re: “What have the Democrats done for you lately?”

Yeah, that's exactly how the GOP needs to approach a Hard Left ethnic group.

Because emphasizing Conservative principles like self-reliance and stoicism in the face of adversity might make them dislike us.

That is so delusional.

As to the original question about what Democrats have done lately.....

Well, for starters, 21% of government employees are Black, but only 13% of the population is Black.

Any concessions the GOPe makes to try to attract Dem voters, will cause many times that number of conservative voters to stay home.

The secret would be to put Dr Carson on a ticket with Cruz or Paul.

Carson is an inspiration for black people, well, white folks too.

We need young voters and we need to inspire black people to see their lives can be a success.

Running a woman up against the Hillary would be a mistake.

I think hatred if the GOP is so ingrained within the Black community that it’ll take at least two generations to get to 20% of the vote. I have two friends who are Black Conservatives ... They dare not speak their ideological or partisan leanings to family and Black friends lest the be labled Oreo and Uncle Tom.

Outreach to Blacks (and moreso Hispanics) as a means of defusing the racism charge with white, Asian and Hispanic voters has definite potential.

I have been saying for ten years here that republicans are stupid to concede the black vote for the very reasons this author cites. You don't need to win a majority. 16% gave Ohio to Bush in 2004.
