All that we're doing now is creating a welfare class voting block capable of pushing any candidate into office. And that's scary, almost every taxpayer in America would have to vote to counter the 40% of americans who dont pay taxes. They will soon be up to 50%.

where are you getting this information from?

This is a pretty repulsive and invalid thread, as I know plenty of black Republicans.

Next time you see one of your lblack Republican pals, ask them how many times they've been chastised for "not keeping it real" or "playing the white man's game"

Are white people also brainwashed to be a certain political party because of what their parents were? Why distinguish black people as the ones who are brainwashed?

And are black republicans also brainwashed?

This is silly. How could a politically-aware person (whatever color he is) hold Republican values and still call himself a Democrat? Or vice versa? I would think he would change to the party that agreed with his view.

Silly.

Your historical understanding is lacking...but good luck with the thread anyhow.

That's pretty disingenuous Saturn. I don't know your age but history has been greatly bastardized about what happened as recently as the fifties and sixties of the last century.

It was mostly Democrats who fought against the Civil Right Act. That is a fact. Most of the old guard KKK were Democrats, that is also a fact.

This entire argument was a creation of politics in and attempt to keep us at each others throats and it works. As long as people consider themselves to be Republicans or Democrats rather than fellow human beings the hate will continue. The false argument will continue.

Black or White, we are being used and used quite effectively.

THOSE democrats are no longer democrats, they are the teabaggers. They were shouting about 'state's rights' back then, and they're doing it now. In fact, the fact that the republican party still exists today, albeit only as a regional party, is thanks to those that ultimately left the dems. due to their distaste of the civil rights movement, err, I mean infringement upon 'state's' rights.

Best,

Being a HUMAN BEING, I have forestalled being either a Dem or Repub.

That being said, Constitutional Libertarianism is the WAY to go!

We believe in Social Liberty, Fiscal Responsibility, Non Interventionalism, and pretty much-leave me and everyone the FRELL alone!

Time to make a third party. Leave everyone ALONE!

First off, I am a white man, I had one friend that told me I am partially black, because of certain parameters. I am an ass, I have always felt that both sides use CoIntelPro to divide us.

I am an ass, never refute it. Please people see that they are trying to divide us.

FRELL them and the corruption they ride in on!

Remember, we are in this together!

If you claim to be an ass, wouldn't that make you a democrat?

Social physiology explains why many situations exist in our society including why the majority of minorities might be Democrat. You are going to associate with those who align themselves close to your lifestyle unless you have greater influence to change it. The Democrats see that there are more votes in the lower 50% income of the population, and this is why they seemed to have held the position of defender of the poor. They have created the “evil rich” to use as a tool in gathering their voter base of low income people.

Eight solid years under Clinton saw no betterment of the lower income, and four years under Obama will be smoke and mirrors too for them, but this doesn’t stop the Democrats from continuing their propaganda since the majority of that group don’t really understand or follow politics. I remember people saying they are going to vote for Obama because he was going to buy them a house or pay off their credit card bills etc. People are looking for free money, and handouts without any effort on their part and each one of these are votes. So who do you vote for? Those who want to reduce taxes of the evil rich or those who offer free money and services?

The problem as to why the black population in the US is low income is where we all should focus our efforts and social physiology is a big answer to changing this around. We cannot just yell at a black person and say “do something with your life!” for most are setup for failure the day they are born. Not only do they grow up thinking that they cannot be successful but society reinforces it from ALL directions. The Democrats are right in the mix of all this by telling them that they need the Government to provide all their needs, they do not try to reverse the situation that a large present of blacks are born live and die in, they feed and nurture it. To be a successful black you become “the evil rich” “uncle toms” “republican” “conservative” “turn your back on your heritage” etc when none of it is true.

The life of the poor where you are just existing is a hell all in itself, and to see truly capable people convinced this is their only life that they can have is a true travesty here in America. So one side wants people to be successful self sufficient members of society and the other side wants to provide everything for the population because the population just doesn’t know what is good for them. So until the day that young black people can feel that they can compete successfully with anyone else in life they will continue to drop into the other mode of just existence with Government subsistence their whole life. This lifestyle is very cancerous and so I do agree with the OP on this.

But it still does not explain the fact of how an entire race can switch political views without anyone noticing,what plan was used
