By minority, I mean ethnic minority. I lived in Atlanta for 20 years, and while many blacks like myself were democrats and liberal, you could also find black republicans or conservatives. I'm personally a black libertarian, who is on the right of fiscal issues, and kind of conservative about social issues, but don't really care enough to have the govenrment change social policy.
I'm actually quite interested, from people's opinion as to what cities are likely to have etnic conservatives.
I've found that I'm generally in good company in Atlanta with other blacks, who are similarly conservative for the most part. Even if they don't vote conservatively, they generally have conservative views, espeically fiscally.
Here in Seattle, I'm hard pressed to find any conservatives let alone black conservatives.
Which city, in your opinion has more minority conservative? This isn't only for black (I'm black), but any minority group.
My guess would be southern states would be more likely to have conservative minorities, followed by the North East, and West coast. I think the midwest may have the least
Show me an enclave of Cubans or Vietnamese, and I'll show you a reliable Republican voting bloc. The same holds true of Filipinos, but to a lesser extent.
As for conservative blacks, Herman Cain has taken the place of Neal Boortz, and he broadcasts from the same studio in Atlanta that Boortz did.

I've been out of Atlanta for awhile. I didn't know Boortz retired. I bet WSB 750 naked without him. Herman Cain is a logicAL choice, he's been a conservative host on Atlanta radio for awhile now.
Cubans in Miami and Hialeah.
Thankfully that tide is shifting as the old die off and the young don't have the same anti Kennedy/Democrats bent as their predecessors did.
But, then again, are Cubans in Miami really considered a minority?
Most ethnic immigrant groups in America hold at least a SOCIALY Conservative view-point as a good number of countiries that these immgrants come from aren't as secularized as America. The Cubans in Miami is the greatest example from a Hispanic perspective. But are anti-gov't Cubans really any more Conservative from a social view-point than Mexicans or Puerto Ricans? Do Cubans oppose abortion, gay-marriage, marijuana legalization anymore than Mexicans or Puerto Ricans? Ironically, alot of native Conservative Floridians have a bent towards the Cuban/Hispanic community in SoFla, even though they make-up the largest Hispanic-Republican voting bloc in the nation. Marco Rubio is the Republican savior, but if you spent time with a native Republican(or Dem for that matter) Floridian and hear their general feelings towards Miami, you'll hear many gripes of what Miami "has become" even though the Cuban story in Miami is all-american, all-republican through and through(with a tad bit of corruption though).
