Why do you think 95% of blacks voted for Gore? Do you think the average black voter was stupid enough to believe those Jasper, Texas hit pieces that the Democrats aired? What do you suggest the Republicans do to get the message out that we believe in black people as individuals who have the power and intelligence to live their own lives?
I work in high tech and every black I work with is educated, skilled and conservative. There has to be a way to get the message that Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams and Clarence Thomas have out in the world of ideas to compete with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.
What we need is a massive black middle class, in debt up to their eyeballs, looking at sending 2.3 children to college and hoping the transmission on the Ford holds out until after Christmas. In short, a part of the American Dream.
This would be a good start. It surely would beat what has been done.
