My statement isn't false. When was the last time republicans got the black vote. The don't give a damn about us. You 0.25% of the black population on your side. That won't change my opinion. You don't want us. Newt is telling us we should ask for jobs instead of food stamps and ron paul had racist newsletters. Yea, they definitely want us on their side.
Harry Reid would probably be impressed with your writing abilties and dialect. Congratulations!
"If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house".
“White folks was [sic] in caves while we was building empires.... We taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it.”
"As for the one Mormon running for office, those who really believe in God will defeat him anyways, so don't worry about that; that's a temporary situation." (Of course this is more religious bigotry than racial)
Among Jackson's other remarks were that Richard Nixon was less attentive to poverty in the U.S. because "four out of five [of Nixon's top advisors] are German Jews and their priorities are on Europe and Asia"; that he was "sick and tired of hearing about the Holocaust";
FOR GODS SAKE>>>>>> Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid less than 4 years ago said....
"He [Reid] was wowed by Obama's oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama -- a 'light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,'
Incoming Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott issued a written apology Monday evening over his comment that the United States would have avoided "all these problems" if then-segregationist Strom Thurmond had been elected president in 1948.
The California Republican who e-mailed a racist "family photo" of President Obama because she thought it was funny offered up a second, less defiant apology Monday.
Republican legislative aide fired for sending out a "reprehensible" e-mail depicting President Obama as two cartoonish white eyes peering from a black background.
And it goes on and on. So again this fantasy that the Democrats are racists and hate black people but the Republicans are the champions of blacks is BS. Both parties have their ignorance, posters on these boards head is too far up their partisan rumps to acknowledge it.
You mean like the racists who lie about President Obama's citizenship and religion?
You mean the racist innuendoes about Food Stamps and black people having no work ethic?
You mean the racist posters and caricatures that have appeared at Tea Party rallies?
I guess you're right: whatever Republican is running, he will continue to use race, and racist tactics, to try to defeat our President.
FAIL!! DELUSIONAL!! MISGUIDED!! All words to describe your weak and pathetic position AND the 3 years this country has suffered under the rule of the most misguided failure of a president since jimbo carter....and if you are confused...YES, I mean obama.
And I thought Powell was quite the darling of the GOP! After a stellar career (and one which he acknowledges was aided by AA) he was sent before the world to lie unknowingly for Rummy and 5-Deferment Dick. That was wrong. Powell made a wise decision in backing President Obama, and no doubt will do so again. Why back the people who sullied your honor?
Lies, sullied honor........what drama. Good grief. I have nothing against mr powell. I'm certain he's a nice guy. He's served his country well. That doesn't mean I have to agree with his political choices. In point of fact I disagree with him. It's just as simple as that.
Over the past few years I've noticed this "Race Card" has really been flipped by both the the far right/left to handpick the most ignorant situations to make black issues seem less credible than they really are, while ignoring true race issues (disproportionate unemployment, singled out crime, etc).
The white media controls what is and isn't considered a race issue. Ron Paul has more support among blacks than any of the other GOP candidates. They have tried to pin him as a racist for months but it doesn't stick because the audience they're trying to claim is a victim doesn't even believe it. Meanwhile Rick Santorum's ignorant stereotypes, Newt Gingrich's race baiting tactics, and Mitt Romneys Elitism/Mormon past rarely gets addressed.
And as far as Obama goes, I will not vote for him this time but with the Tea Party movement I see that many conservatives clearly are more concerned about getting "the black man" out of the White House rather than actually choosing a candidate who will change policies for the better.
When 95% of a group votes for someone because the other choice is of the party that continually insults them, that is understandable.
Insults?
Do you have facts and proof of these so called insults?
Or are you doing the Obama thing and changing the truth and deflecting.
When any group votes 95% for one person because of color that is racist period.
Can you imagine is 95% of all whites voted for the GOP nominee and a landslide win occurred you would see a completely different way of how one would handle a true racist. But you wont see that and you know it.
Whites voted for Obama in large numbers, he could not have won without that vote but now we are seeing the race card again.

That ain't racist son...them is da' facts.
They cannot handle the facts and know this idiot has nearly destroyed America.
All those posted above are facts, nothing with race at all.
Record welfare
Record foreclosures
Record bankruptcies
Record job losses
Hey republicans, I have a crazy idea that just might work for you, if you want stop the race card. Why don't you actually trying going out there and getting the black vote instead of just complaining that blacks always vote democrat and that democrats use the race card. If you actually give us a legit reason to join, we might consider it. Just simply telling us we are brainwashed and that the democrats kepp us down isn't doing the job.

I'd say it's not an overstatement or drama when a man as respected by both sides of the aisle as Powell is sent to unknowingly lie to the world. What Powell did is against the military code of ethics, and it certainly
left a blight on his career. He wasn't appreciative of having been used.
I don't care if you disagree...just pointing out that someone as highly
respected and intelligent as Powell isn't afraid to acknowledge that AA was instrumental to his success.
