The problem isn't Republicans or their message of smaller government.
The problem is that the voting public will not tolerate any politician who tells them they cannot loot the treasury.
As we proceed toward financial ruin, you'll hear voices warning against our reckless actions but it won't matter.
The genie is out of the bottle.
Democrats and RINO Republicans buy votes with stolen money and with that ability they will continue returning to DC until they finish destroying the nation.
To keep on topic, just who are these voices and what messages are are they trying to bring to the public?
In the early days, the black vote did go Republican. It drifted over to the Dems but that was cemented with the Civil Rights Act. Unless the candidate wears a white sheet over his head while campaigning, the Democratic candidate will win the black vote.
The recently departed Senator Byrd (D) of West Virginia was a Klansman.
I never understand why this topic ever comes up. blacks vote democrat. That is no different than the NRA voting republican or some other group voting a certain way. Each party benefits certain groups. That is the way its has been and always will be.
It is odd to see how Black America votes for the Democrats despite how they are treated by them. Obama did not even bother to go to the NAACP meeting, but had time to go to Hollywood and suck up big money from them. I would have to question the ability of Black America to understand how their status in the Democratic party really shakes out.

Like I always say, it's voting for the lesser of two evils. I would be scared to know where african americans would be if they supported republicans. We'd all probably still be picking cotton and being housemaids.
MHP in her intro says that 21 pct of blacks are employed in a public sector job. Great, but what about the 79% who are not. If you are one of the 21 pct, of course you want high taxes, high wage, high benefit make-work jobs, and continued ballooning of the public sector.
If you are one of the 79% who either has a private sector job, and has to carry the load on their backs, or one of those who has NO job, you may not be so enthused about MHP's thoughts. In fact even among the 21 pct, there are those who realize that they do not want to bequeath a Greek-style state to their kids and grandkids.

keep thinking those paranoid delusional liberal hallucinatory thoughts. It'll make it that much easier for Republicans and conservatives to win elections.
Blacks voting democrat is voting for ones who upheld slavery in history.. no denying that fact..and still do but with freebees. Ya know..using blacks ,, got to vote my interest. Kind of sick..
What I get from this is that the republican view of wanting smaller gov't by reducing gov't jobs is viewed as a threat to the livelihood of the black middle class. So you're not going to get many blacks voting republican or joining the tea party.

Great point, I was thinking the same thing. I think what she was trying to infer is that public sector jobs equal high paying jobs, which isn't always true. The assumptions she was trying to make in her argument has so many holes in it. Just a poorly constructed argument.

One Big Reason Blacks Aren't Voting Republican
