You don’t know about any “problems in the black community.” You’re not in the community, and you’re just offering conjecture. Your analysis isn’t to be taken seriously.
And yep, we can (and will) vote for whomever we want and we’ll STILL complain if we want to. Loudly.
Now what? Huh? Do you tell any other minority group how to vote? Do you give them your unsolicited advice? Nope. So why would you assume that WE want your guidance? Lol

Here you go, desertdetroiter. Another rightwinger telling you that you are stupid, and still on the plantation. Now doesn't that make you want to run out and vote for the GOP?
Probably because Democrats have fought for Civil Rights since the early 60s. And because Democrats have consistently addressed problems that disproportionately affect blacks, like poverty and poor education. Republicans, going back to Nixon have used code words like “law and order” to convince white suburbanites to be scared of blacks and keep them out of their neighborhoods. Republicans preach self reliance without acknowledging the challenges that blacks face as vestiges of our history of slavery and Jim Crow.
When 93% of blacks oppose Donald Trump, it’s pretty hard to argue they are all brainwashed.
No Leo, you are wrong. D's did NOT fight for civil rights in early 60s. for All this stuff is so easy to look up, why don't you educate yourself?
In 1960 the Civil Rights Act established inspections of local voter registration polls. It was initiated by an R president.
The 1964 Civil Rights Act only passed after a cloture vote to end a D filibuster. Sen. Everett Dirksen (R) wrote and then was a key player in getting it passed. Vote totals had 80% R support and only 63% D support. Sen. Robert Byrd (D) filibustered the bill. Al Gore Sr. and William Fulbright (Bill Clinton's mentor BTW) both voted against it.
If you go back you will see that the R's have supported civil rights 94% of the time to only 35% by D's in the history of civil rights laws.
If you don't (want to) learn from history or brush it off as you've tried to do in this forum in the past because it isn't the here and now, you and those like you will be doomed to repeat it. Deny it all you want but the evidence and facts exist for those who wish to learn the truth.
Those Dixiecrats merely changed tactics from force, to isolation, to entitlements to keep black people under their thumbs. Johnson was a notorious racist but he knew his party would be having black people eating out of their hands for decades by initiating programs to keep them fed and housed. It was purely political, he and his fellow D's didn't give a ch!t about black people. It was all about power and it still is today.
You think its the R's using code words to convince people to be scared of blacks and keep them out?
Creepy Joe staged a pretty good speech just loaded with all kinds of words for the Crime Bill on CNN in 1993, if you have the guts to watch it. And I can guarantee you, that leopard ain't changed his spots. He might be bought off right now but this is what your man thinks about you and people that look like you. Corn Pop (whether fiction or not) still burns his soul.

It always cracks me up to read white posters pontificating on who tf we should be voting for. I don’t need sh*t from the Democrats. We are well off, I don’t qualify for a stimulus check, all 3 kids graduated from college, as did we. One kid is in med school, and the other two along with her spouse are all making six figures, yet we will all vote for Biden. We are in no way brainwashed.
Trump has ran up the deficit faster than anyone with a “great” economy, yet y’all give him a pass. Those opportunity zones were nothing more than smoke and mirrors which allow the likes of him and Kushner to profit with slick tax moves.
I’m trying to figure out why working class whites vote for Republicans? They don’t give two cents about y’all. They try to kill unions which have provided a middle class existence for many people.
This recession we will weather just fine financially, and I’m not even working, and not worried about it.
News flash black unemployment was low when trump got in office. All he had to do was to not mess it up, yet he has. We are getting killed by covid, and we are suffering the most unemployment.
And yes Trump is racist af, which means we won’t vote for him.
Whose fault is it that they had nowhere to go? Were they given somewhere to go? Where exactly were they supposed to go oh great one? Tell us.
Your last sentence is laughable. White Americans couldn’t get enough of the New Deal and the Great Society...programs that were made ad hoc for white Americans. Were THEY offended?
Just more denial of the facts by a Hispanic who has a chip on his shoulder and hates white conservatives.
I don't have a "chip" on my shoulder but the white Conservatives in this thread do lambasting and using condescending talk to Blacks about why they Vote for the Democrats.
Perhaps you should ask why the majority of them vote for Dems in the first place & not with White Conservatives because it is clear as Day to me.
What does the fact that I am a Hispanic have anything to do with it?
By the way I don't "hate" anybody but I do despise stupidity & arrogance which seems to plague a lot of White Conservatives and the way they talk down to minorities from their superior perched imagined pedestal.

How are facts "condescending"? It's a fact that blacks have bought into the Democrat propaganda that white conservatives and the GOP are racists. It's also a fact that many blacks like the socialism of the Democrats.
Many Hispanics vote for the Democrats because they want to give amnesty to their ethnic group here illegally and want open borders for them to come here at will. They don't want our immigration laws enforced and vie for sanctuary cities. Reading your posts over time shows that you fit that bill.
No, most white conservatives don't talk down to minorities today. Get your head out of the 50's and 60's and stop drinking the Democrat kool-aid that they are racists just as the blacks have been lead to believe also.

Not true for the most part and what makes you think that Trump is a racist? He has done more for blacks and other minorities more than any other president.
Working class whites don't like having their jobs taken by illegal aliens or their wages lowered because of them and yet the Democrats want to give them amnesty and no border wall to help prevent further illegal entry? Illegal aliens cost us over $100 billion a year above and beyond what they contribute and the Democrats defend them tooth and nail including sanctuary cities, DL's and healthcare. So don't preach to me about it being the Republicans who are hurting working Americans!
The simple question: Why would anyone vote for either party today?
Why have we afforded both parties to become saturated with filthy members-period?
Why would black people afforded psuedo science and bias beliefs to shape their path on the planet; clearly everything under the moon intellectually derived from their lineage.
Why would black people vote for either party by modern day standards?
