The status quo doesn't work for anyone anymore but apparently the black population would rather see a black man stay in office than vote for someone who might actually fix some things.

We have voted for white democratic candidates for the last 40 years, why would you think we are all of sudden going to change when we have a black president?

I don't think you're going to change all of a sudden, I'm just pointing out that you've voted for Democrats for 40 years who have all promised to make great strides in helping the black community but none of them ever has. I don't really care what the candidate's skin color is, black Americans have flocked to Democrats for decades because they don't know anything better. Of course Democrats love keeping their caged voters just happy enough that they never leave the plantation.

Do you think if you say the same thing that other republicans have being same were going to change our minds. We rely on the democrats, and we don't seem to care if they keep us caged. Are you happy that we have admitted it now?

They may be learning that unless you happen to work for the government, the J O B comes from conservatives and is generally involves a lot more than a trip to the mailbox even if it does take more effort.
However, it is a learned experience and we are getting some generational improvement. Democrats have peddled the reservation too long.
All races will do a JOB for reward. In this respect there is no difference in races.

Besides even if you have a job, black or white, we are now all slaves to our material obsessions, appearances.
White minstrels, black minstrels, hispanic minstrels all steppin to the tune of the players.

I'm not trying to convert anyone to anything but being smarter when it comes to voting, that's regardless of skin color.

It seems to you that the only smart thing to do is vote republican. I don't understand why you are trying to convince a group, who has voted 1 way for half century to change their opinions when we finally have one of our own.

There was a time when most whites were racists (generally from the democratic party, of course) but now most whites are not racist.

Racism is an excuse used by American socialists to distract from the horrific results of the Obama presidency. The fact of the matter is that in the past and up to 2012 most racists come out of the democratic party (Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Van Jones, Jeremiah Wright, Robert Byrd, George Wallace, etc.)


A Message To Black And Brown Media Personalities!!! - YouTube
Do you know the difference between an opinion and a statement made by an individual? (George Allen, Strom Thurmond, Trent Lott, Tea Party rally attendees). Those were not opinions. Those were direct statements from the people that made the statements. Those were the words of the racists themselves, not some media opinion on what they said. They presented themselves as racist.

Do you have an attention deficit? You seem to have trouble staying on point. My only point was that you were dead wrong in asserting that there is no racism in the GOP. Go back and read your own post. The re-read mine. I made no reference liberal or non-liberal whites, or how many milliions of whites are racist. Read what's on the page, not what you imagine to be on the page.

Since you brought it up, all the the racism I pointed out to you happens to be coming from members of the GOP. This simply proves your assertion wrong. That is not to say that people from other parties are not or have not practiced racism.

By the way, racism is not spawned by being affiliated with a political party. It comes from a belief that one's race is superior to that of another, and therefore has the right to rule over, hate, and mistreat that other race. That comes from within, not from being affiliated with a political party.

Maybe you should read up on some U.S. History. Over the course of history in this country the Republican and Democratic parties have not remained static in their treatment of black people. Republicans, Democrats, and even Third Party candidates and supporters have all practiced racism at some point over the course of U.S. history.
