Guess you prefer the soft racism of low expectations that's become characteristic of the Democratic Party.
Chill with the tired phrases, sayings and talking points that come straight out of the Republican Radio Talk show archives. "Soft bigotry of low expectations," blah, blah.....
No, friend, here's the truth. It is the Democrat Party that is hostile to Blacks. Don't just listen to their words. Look at their deeds. Democrat policies have made Blacks second class citizens in their own country. In the matter of education they have supported teachers' unions over the needs of black children with the result that most never graduate from high school or, if they graduate, they are functionally illiterate. Democrat policies have created welfare dependency as a way of life for the majority of Blacks. What Democrats have done to Blacks since LBJ's Great Society is worse than Jim Crow and is as bad as slavery itself. But, you know, keep voting Democrat.
Please. The fact that blacks and minorities have been USED by the Democratic Party for years is shameful and its sad how you and other
minorities are just fine being used and seen as "victims". If that is how
you want to view your lives and your existence then fine, but it sure
isnt anything to be proud of.
I'm being used?
Ok. I have a nice life. Good Job. Nice wife. good kid. A few nickels in the bank. A fairly nice home. I'm happy, and satisfied with my life thus far. I think i'm living the American Dream.
So now, tell me how i'm being used. Go for it. I GOTTA hear this.
Oh FB..did you even read the OP article ?
Race baiting by our DOJ ?
From the OP link..no "race baiting" whatsoever..it's there in black and white.
The DOJ thinks Blacks can't make the right choice unless that big "D" is next to their names.
From OP link:
"The Justice Department prevented the 2008 referendum change, arguing in part that “the elimination of party affiliation on the ballot will likely reduce the ability of blacks to elect candidates of choice.”
I did, as pretty much always, read the link. Your interpretation of what you quoted, is flawed. Or, is it that "can't make" has the same meaning as "reduce the ability"?
You... speak for everyone, make sweeping statements knowing how millions of people think and play the race card...

The Republican Party is openly hostile towards blacks. I didn't play the race card. I told the truth. Take it how you want.
But isnt this thread itself kinda "playing the race card??" Sure some people no matter what ethnicity, embellish and exxagerate. But what I mean otherwise is, why is that when black people ligitimately cite some injustice or inequity, they are accused of joking around with some playing card, as if non black people are supposed to know better about how black people should percieve and feel about experiences unique only to them? Whats next? Will men start dictating to women how they should experience childbirth?

Everyone that votes strictly on party lines is being used. Divide Americans and distract them from the real issues is a plan that has worked tremendously until now.
If you notice, nothing ever really changes. Republicans and Democrats both love war and the economic system the Fed controls which allows for endless war and welfare.
END THE WAR ON DRUGS
END ALL WARS ABROAD
END THE FED
Find the race threads and read the Republican posters.
What other conclusions should i draw?
This is such a flippant comment that I debate whether it's even worth a reply. You've obviously made up your mind that you hate a certain group of people. It's not a reasoned position, so it's probably a waste of time to try to reason you out of it. Nonetheless I offer this example. Read the OP, and then tell me that I'm a racist.

Reduce the ability ? If there's no D next to their name they can't make good choices ?
The DOJ is coming out saying Blacks don't know how to vote unless there is a big "D" next to a politician's name.
That's an insult to all Blacks in my book. No mention of Hispanics so I guess they know how to vote.

There wasn't a damn thing flippant about my comment. I was serious as brain cancer. It's TOTALLY reasonable.
One only needs to find the race threads, and read the comments from the overwhelming majority of Republicans/Conservatives. Why shouldn't i draw reasonable opinions from these posts? It's not just on C-D, but any website discussing the same topics. It's pretty clear who my antagonists are. They don't hide it.
The article was clearly written for race baiting purposes, IMHO. The intent was to get someone, whether wittingly or unwittingly, to perpetuate it on social media. But, regardless, it is still race baiting and serves no other purpose.
