Republicans continually ask why Black people will not vote Republican, and we give the same answers over and over again. We don't like to be referred to as monkeys, chimps, apes, Simians. We don't like to be called thugs, drug dealers, less moral, less intelligent, or less capable. We don't like the constant portrayal of Black people that lose their minds over watermelon and fried chicken. We don't like the continuous drone of "if a black person makes it, it's not due to his ability, it's only due to affirmative action".
Too much sensitivity here. Everyone I know loves fried chicken and watermelon. Oh we have the people who won't eat anything fried but they are so against anything fried.
Fact is their is a big division of spirit coming from the democratic party. The democrats keep their power that way to keep blacks in the democratic mindset of division.
There is a huge difference in the message of Al Sharpen and Martin Luther King. Martin Luther King is the man who leads the blacks off the plantation and off the slave ships for the true meaning of equality and freedom. Al Sharpen does the opposite and many today follow him back into the slave days and told they are lesser.
We need more Martin Luther Kings who will truly lead all blacks to his message of being totally free and having the knowledge of what equal means. That is true freedom.
With the mindset today (to many same ideas as the OP) and if it bleeds over on into future trends, this country will never see another leader like MLK. The days of fighting for what's right...those days are in the past.
Ex. Fuel prices would go back down if ppl would park their car to show they are fighting for what's right and they are tired of being bullied out of what's in their wallet. How many ppl would step up to that plate so as to create a panic for the oil companies? Yep, that's what I thought.
Instead of pulling together...we're more up for division and that's what makes this so easy for gov to control. United we stand, divided we fall...those are more than just words.
PS: Freedom doesn't come as a side dish from KFC

The temporary darling of the Republicans/Conservatives makes a habit of telling Black Democrats how they are trapped on the Democratic Plantation due to their inability to intellectually make the "wise" choice to vote Republican.

Well, ole Herman takes the cake with this one. In this ad black men haven't fought for this country, Black men don't nurture their children, Black men have "Hos",Black men are quick to get an abortion for their hos, and black men won't vote Republican because all of these things aren't things Republicans would indulge in.
Well said. When you are considered an equal you will feel welcome in the Republican Party. I think the overwhelming majority of blacks realize they are not considered equal. The irony here is that the poor whites who make up the bulk of the GOP are not considered equal either, rather, they are viewed as useful idiots by the moneyed elite and their elected servants in Congress.
It's just the whites are not smart enough to realize this.

The hate is palpable with this one. "White trash", "not smart enough"......
The Democratic Party does take advantage. It is not good for any party to get 95% of any groups vote. Your asking to be taken advantage of, used, ignored,etc. The Democratic Party does not have to earn or work for the vote of American Black people. If there were more Republicans and Independents among American Black people, then the Democrats would have to earn the vote. Furthermore, there would be a true effort at finding solutions to the most pressing issues, instead of quoting statistics like a broken record.
