And what would they have gotten from McDaniel?

Furthermore, why does it matter who Blacks vote for?

Self-respect for not whoring out their votes for a mere $15 and Cochran's racist lies. What's the matter... is self-respect not a familiar concept?

Some people have critical thinking skills:
Quote:
"Black Conservatives Fund calls on the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigations to investigate the claims of voter fraud, wire and mail fraud, and other illegal election activities that may have been committed by Senator Thad Cochran and his campaign aides Saleem Baird and Kirk Sims.

...Board member Anita MonCrief shares the dismay many black conservatives have voiced about the allegations, saying, “As black Americans, it is insulting to us all that in 2014, decades after the horrors of Jim Crow that the Cochran campaign would use black voters in such a manner. Anyone that thinks it's ok to lure black voters to the polls with money and the implied promise of government handouts does not deserve to be a servant of the people.”

Self-respect is a minimum. I'm talking about other results, such as policies. What kind of policies would have Blacks gotten from McDaniel?

And who are you to tell Blacks whom they should vote for? It isn't your business. Furthermore, you have no authority to say that only Black conservatives have critical thinking skills.

What have they gotten from Cochran all these years? Nothing:
Quote:
Thad Cochran won a primary runoff by turning out the black vote. Now they are asking — what are you going to do for us?

...Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) agreed that Cochran has an opportunity to support the black community. “What I hope happens is that he comes to the realization that African-Americans are the reason I have this final six years and therefore I’m going to try and be more responsible than I have been,” Cleaver said.

Cochran never did a damn thing for Blacks other than illegally bribe them $15 to vote for him.

The same they will get from Cochran, nothing. Since the economy is better I doubt Cochran would be against cutting funding for food cards. Cochran has nothing to lose this his last term and looking how that election went do you think Cochran will stand on principle and deliver for the blacks? I doubt that and we shall see.

I could care less who blacks vote for I am concerned on the shady way that election was done and IMO the blacks were used like a hooker and will be tossed aside. Why you are for this type of treatment towards blacks?

Well, if Blacks wouldn't have gotten anything from McDaniel, then it shouldn't really matter.

And the "food cards", why the assumption that all Blacks want are food stamps?

The thing is, there are so many discussions about who Blacks vote for, ad nauseam, and I think all it boils down to it anger towards Blacks.

I never said I was for any kind of treatment. My point is this. All anyone ever thinks about is "why do Blacks vote Democrat"?

So you are saying that all the Black voters that showed up at the polls to vote, did so only because they were bribed? Or did so because they were too stupid to independently evaluate McDaniel and Cochran and choose Cochran over McDaniel?

Where have you been? They didn't independently do a damn thing. They NEVER would have gotten out to the polls if they weren't race hustled. A few blacks from the area already had said as much. Now they feel used and are upset about it.
