I don't care what color skin you have the best thing anyone can do for society is to be able to support themselves, if you can't do that then you are a burden to society.
Again, who do you expect to get Black votes by constantly bringing up welfare, particularly from Blacks who aren't on welfare?

How about that, both Hillary and Trump are rich.

Hillary got rich by selling influence to foreign governments
Trump got rich by building buildings. He also employed Americans.



Hillary wants to raise taxes (funnel more of the people's money to the government),
Trump wants to lower taxes (allow the people to keep more of their money).

Hillary with years in politics is well versed in smooth talking and lying,

Trump puts it out there

One of them single-handedly handled my huge TV which had been moved to my house by three delivery guys.

When the owner, a white guy, came back to pick up the payment, I give him $40 extra and insisted that he passed it on to the Latinos.

Just saying ... I have yet to see one single out of job Black, White, or Asian person standing at the street corner seeking day labor opportunities.
What's your racial background since you say you're a minority?

Because though they are poor many would feel shame not working and being on the taxpayer dime.

Many in America know pride but little about shame.

At least he didn't use a public office to make his money. The Clintons sold influence for their millions.

I don't beg for anyone's vote. That's how Republicans roll, we face facts no matter how dark it is, it's the only way to resolve issues not by ignoring them. Go back to the flower child fest where Democrats believe everything is peaches and cream and believe everyone is living the white picket fence life.

He's the greatest type of minority in America, a tax payer.

Lol no that's not it. They vote Republican because they don't want anyone else to have access to "their" resources

No one is asking to gloss over issues. I'm simply saying that if you talk about Black people as if they are a burden, they won't vote for you. This is about who African-Americans vote for. If you're so concerned, do something about it. If not, be quiet and mind your own business.
