...and 1 reason they won’t....race
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.
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.
The africans are going to keep on voting democrat until the republicans out pander the dems. No thanks. They made their bed, now they can sleep in it.
Problem is, what % of the black community can we expect to read Townhall?
This dose of political reality unfortunately falls on deaf ears.
GOP can offer free Kools; free Escalades; free gold jewelry; free Mickey’s malt Liquor; free NBA get-out-of-jail-free-cards; 72 ho’s at death.............stop me, it’s too easy!
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...
And 52% of the killers.
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.

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!
” 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
Shouldn’t things be done as free individuals?
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.
Btt
This is getting on fifty years since the big civil rights days of the sixties, and you still have black pols acting as is George Wallace is still the governor of Alabama standing in the doorway and the Klan is terrorizing black citizens. Until we get responsible black pols, a doubtful proposition even with Allen West getting elected, we'll be getting 90% plus Black Americans voting for the party that keeps them mired in poverty and hopelessness.
The author is absolutely correct the above problems are all linked directly to Jonson’s war on poverty.
Johnson’s war on poverty required that those women receiving ADC not have a father living in the home.
You get more of what you pay for. So what do expect when you pay for fatherless households? More fatherless households.
Fatherless household are a direct cause of all of the other problems. And the length and breadth of these problems increase with each succeeding generation.
The real problem with getting Blacks out of this crippling cycle is human nature.
People stay where they are comfortable. It is human nature. Where are people comfortable? Generally where they grew up.
So here we are about 4 generations in to the War On Poverty and every day another batche of kids are born in to the ADC program and another batch of young girls graduate from being a child of the ADC program to being a Female Head of House Hold receiving ADC benefits for her fatherless child. Female Head of House Hold will also be recruited to be a loyal Democrat voter so that can vote her self interest.
It is a hard nut to crack. How do we break in to the comfort zone of this demographic? How do we convince these people that it is in their self interest to wean themselves from the government teat get off the dole and work for their own self interest when their family has lived this way for generations?
Ultimately it is easier for their own community to convince them that they need to change. Hearing these words from an outsider is less convincing. Leaders in their own community will have to convince them that there is a way out and that life is better in the free world.
