I could be mistaken, but you don’t appear to have a very positive perception of blacks. Of course, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. However, contrary to your belief, black people are quite capable of formulating opinions, and are not a monolithic group of sheeple.

For your information,

I am black, and I am very anti-illegal immigration
. Furthermore, none of my black relatives, friends, or associates support illegal immigration, and we are not an anomaly. Some support illegal immigration, and others oppose -- just like any other group of citizens of this country.
And we're proud of you,.

In my opinion the answer is no. And do you know why ? Because most Black voters would think this blond haired and blue eyed politician is anti-illegal for racial reasons. Most black voters would think that politician wants to stop illegal immigration because illegal immigrants are changing the racial demographics of America and making it less White.

Black leaders are just like the white ones . They will rally around any issue that keeps them in office . They have managed to keep their own people in the victomhood plantations for decades now . They use the names of those like MLk to get rich and famous. MLK was true freedom fighter unlike these blacks, he wanted what was right ,not what he could get out of it .

Most illegals are prejudice against blacks in their native lands . Go to Mexico, Iran, Saudi Arabia and see how they treat blacks .

I wholeheartedly agree with your post, with the exception of the bolded. The victimhood and plantation mentality does not apply to the majority of black citizens. Sadly, the ignorant minority receive the lion’s share of attention. It is this group, by which the majority of blacks are unfairly judged.

Many blacks are waking up to these facts but not enough, not yet . More black leaders like Alan Keyes [ he is too much a preacher though] are speaking out everyday . Will enough wake up before it's too late is another question .

We built this nation together and we are losing together . The idea is divide and conquor for whatever reasons this is happening .

I believe blacks are indeed seeing the light. Unfortunately, none of us anti-illegals are getting much exposure, other than the negative images the media loves to portray. The well-orchestrated smear campaign by pro-illegals has made many reluctant to publically express opposition for fear of being labeled a racist or xenophobe. I have become immune to such nonsense.

You’re right. We MUST fight this invasion together.

It is extremely risky for an illegal alien apologist to throw the 'race card' against American Blacks, shall we say.

How true and that is why they don't do it. Imagine a united force of both whites and blacks coming together and becoming very vocal about this issue? What would the pro-illegal apologists do then?
