Nope. Bobby Jindal tried to give kids at failing schools vouchers, and AG Holder sued him for doing so. The Obama DOJ doesn't want to let red states implement school vouchers, not even when 85% of the intended voucher-recipients were Black. Dems want Blacks kept dumb and therefore poor, necessitating their votes for the Dems who promise them more and more welfare. And guess what? That plan has worked out very well for them. For decades. What percentage of Blacks vote Democrat?
Furthermore, your point doesn't make any sense. The worst public schools are mostly in blue states:
Moderator cut: link removed, linking to competitor sites is not allowed
School vouchers undermine public schools in this country.
The right to attend a public school is ingrained in the constitution of all states.
Yes a few. The majority of Blacks ARE NOT on welfare.
More than a few. Blacks ARE the most over-represented racial/ethnic group on the welfare rolls, compared to their percentage of the population. I showed the math... A Black person is 5 times more likely to receive welfare than is a White person.
No one since Jefferson Davis & Lyndon Johnson has done this much damage to blacks. With Obama, I´m suspicious that he is doing it deliberately. I think Johnson honestly wanted to help blacks but the Great Society just made them slaves to the welfare check and voting Democrat.
Which policies would give you that idea?

Exactly, someone who knows nothing about the black community other than what is shown on Fox News and other right-wing hate outlets.

You know,... I thought about this too. He's been good for my pocketbook but it's my family (middle class) that is getting killed and has me worried. I help but with the government grab, it's hurt my ability to help more.

Cool, you can cite statistics. Why are blacks disproportionately on welfare?
(Hint: some other economic indicators have the answer)
Dang, look at you contradicting your own argument and showing your true colors.
I've contradicted nothing. I'm showing where the logic of believing political propaganda fails. Blacks have been duped by Dems for decades. Ever since LBJ.

breeders who raise more breeders.
Breeders, who are dependent but want to live like others who become angry at the wrong people forgetting it was they, who chose to have children before an education or a job, to someone who had no intention of sticking around, then teach their kids to blame the wrong people and to be angry at everyone else.
Anyone who sits on the dole is a disgrace. Anyone who has kids knowing they will be on welfare is worse. Whites don't condone it, they don't defend it (like black do) and you don't know how whites on the dole are thought of by other whites.. not well.

What? How do you know what blacks and whites do or do not condone. Have you spoken with the entire population? Your blatant bias is beyond juvenile and ignorant. I for one DO NOT condone someone sitting on Welfare doing absolutely nothing. After the housing crash, there are a lot of people who WORKED had no choice but to depend on welfare and yes they have children. I just don't get this one sided view many of you have. This is why these politicians are living on the tax payers and doing absolutely nothing in return.
Do you mean like blacks lump all whites together? Hate whitey.
Exactly, it's not up to crooked politicians to help anyone succeed. Yet people keep voting for the party of big government who keep promising that they will legislate prosperity.
Don't you remember, "I won't have to worry about paying my gas, I won't have to worry about paying my mortgage"
Please tell me, in the last 30 years, which party again is/was the party of small government? I have yet to experience that in my voting lifetime. And again, what responsibility do you hold to the ignorant comments that Whites make? Apparently you believe I and other blacks are responsibile for the ignorant comments and actions of all Blacks.
