"Most Republicans are racist and have xenophobic tendencies.'"
IMO, you don't know what you are talking about.

Meanwhile 9 out of 10 blacks vote Democrat! What's the OP's point anyway?

It's also fascinating that the U.S. is the only place where religiousity and politics are so strongly correlated despite the fact that Jesus himself was pretty ambivalent about the government. Read and discuss if you wish

And probably 10 out of 10 black women are Bible thumpers and vote Democratic.

Seems God hedges his ideology.
