Wow. I never thought it would be possible to write so much, and yet write nothing at all.

It's funny how you talk about this "monolithic" group, and yet you keep referring to "Blacks have to do this. Blacks have to do that. Blacks will cry racism, and yadda yadda yadda", as if all blacks are the same.

And yes, some Black people registered just because there was a Black man running, but guess what? I'm sure a bunch of racist White people registered for the same reason: To vote against the Black guy running.

Pretty good response to Sandy. Needs a lot of improvement, but way better than Bush to Katrina. Is that what you mean?

When 100% of the white vote goes to a white men for decades, a black/hispanic/asian candidate did not get even 10% of the white vote in the primaries to get to the presidential stage.
That's what's funny with stats. Not only did blacks vote 93-95% for Potus but they turned out in record numbers. That is a key stat. Your right that's blacks vote blue but these 2 last elections they turned out in record numbers. Jcoltrane, Tried to rep you but wouldnt allow.

The Republican party is not ant-diverisity. Diversity within a common culture is a good thing. The Republican party is anti-"multiculturalism" and rightfully so. "Multilculturalism", aka the idea of different cultures living side-by-side and never integrating, is complete and total BS and will lead to the Balkanization of the country. Show me one country that has ever been "multicultural" without big, big problems that eventually lead to violence/civil war.

As for the second sentence, why on earth are we letting people from third-world sh*tholes immigrate here when they arrive and begin to "depend on the government." Use to be that hardworking, motivated, immigrants would arrive and work their butts off to start a better life for themselves. Now we have lazy third-world bums arriving who depend on government handouts the minute they step off the boat. Pathetic.
