As you noticed, Donald Trump is making an appeal for the Black vote, telling blacks specifically what the problems are in their communities and putting the blame on Democrats in a manner you never hear from Republicans. Democrats have locked down the black vote since the 70’s, and what has it gotten blacks? Take a look at Democrat run cities, and the violence, the unemployment, the poverty, the poor schools for blacks.
(NY Post) Hillary Clinton claims that some of Donald Trump’s appeal is “xenophobic, racist, misogynistic.†On Thursday she asked, “If he doesn’t respect all Americans, how can he serve all Americans?â€
But who actually cares more about blacks, in particular poor blacks?
On everything from education to jobs to crime, Trump’s policies offer a lifeline to people who have been losing ground for decades. Hillary’s policies will just exacerbate them. And no amount of speeches will change that.
On education, Trump strongly supports school choice. This would give inner-city blacks a way out of horribly performing public schools. Clinton attacks charters and clearly opposes other forms of school choice, opting to protect teachers unions at the expense of students.
And who’s harmed the most by illegal immigration? Who’s most likely to suffer unemployment or wage reductions due to the added competition? Young, unskilled blacks and Hispanics. The biggest beneficiaries? Wealthy people who get to pay less for lawn care and housecleaning.
When it comes to crime, blacks and Hispanics are often trapped in the high crime areas created in Democratic Party run cities by Democratic Party policies. Hillary wants to release more felons from jail. Trump wants to increase police support in the high crime areas. Hillary supports Black Lives Matter and their hatred of cops, and wants to make the jobs of police more difficult. Trump supports the police.
Hillary supports making it more difficult for people living in these high crime areas to obtain a firearm to protect themselves and their families from the very crime created by Democratic Party policies. Trump supports citizen’s rights to own a firearm.
Democrats clearly haven’t served blacks well, and more of the same isn’t going to help. If blacks are willing to listen to Trump, his logical arguments may have a real chance of winning them over.
Of course, the media is spinning furiously for Hillary and Democrats, because, somehow Trump policies that would provide school choice, better education opportunities, better job opportunities, lower crime, a higher standard of living, safer communities, and so forth, essentially rolling back all the damage done by Democratic Party policies, would be bad. Well, bad for the elections of Democrats. They treat blacks (and Hispanics, gays, etc) simply as a voting block, not as people with hopes and dreams. They take them for granted. Dems promise government largess, and have failed the black community.
As Trump said “What do you have to lose by trying something new?”
Absolutely, make your case. Maybe conservatives just haven’t revealed enough of their true selves to Black voters.
To be fair to Black voters you should acknowledge that conservatives do not have the best record regarding treatment of Blacks, what with Jim Crow, lynchings, treatment by police, separate but equal, etc.
Why do you think Blacks vote overwhelmingly for liberal candidates? Do you think Black voters are dumber than white voters? Or less politically sophisticated? Free stuff?
Teach knows what is best for everyone. Those Blacks who disagree with his views on what is best for them are just stupid.
Jeffrey wrote:
Jim Crow? Passed by Democrats! Separate but equal? A legacy of the Democrats! Lynchings, the Klan, all of that is a history of Democrats!
Now, I can identify the problem, and it’s really very simple: the problem is that integration failed.
Integration, as envisioned during the 1960s and 1970s, would have led to integration in housing and neighborhoods; there would be no real concentration of blacks in individual neighborhoods and cities, because the black population would be spread throughout the whole population, like chips in a chocolate chip cookie.
That didn’t happen. Jeffrey will, of course, blame wicked white people, but the fact is that black Americans have chosen to congregate in our inner cities, and are even now resisting efforts of some whites to move back to urban areas, calling it ‘gentrification,’ and demanding white-free ‘safe spaces’ in some of our universities.
Of course, integration, as envisioned by 1960s and 1970s intellectuals, really meant that everyone would be white, just with some white people being very melanin-wealthy. Integration was meant to homogenize culture, and that meant that everyone would be part of ‘white’ culture. That part just didn’t work.
Really Jeffery? The willfully blind, knowingly ignorant, Jeffery. Beside the fact it was Christians who started the Republican Party to stop the RACIST democrat party of slavery, our good friend Dr. Martin Luther King, a REPUBLICAN was for “colorblindness” unlike the racist democrats running the inner city ghettoes as a black voting block.
Here is what YOUR RACIST party stands for:

The history of the democrat party is a history of slavery and subjugation of the black people in America. Now they are turning their sights on Hispanics. May God have mercy on those poor Hispanic people. Be prepared for the “inner city barrio” to be the next democrat housing plan.
And all a legacy of conservatives. Black oppression is
thea hallmark of conservatism.Blacks are sophisticated enough to reject the piling steam of crap conservatives are now shoveling.
Why do you think Blacks reject Republican conservatism these days? Did they support conservative Dems when conservative Dems were the KKK and the southern white power structure?
Democrats were the creators of Jim Crow, lynchings, the KKK and Republicans freed the slaves and voted for their freedoms. Before Lincoln was even sworn in, Southern Democrat states seceded, knowing Lincoln and the Republicans would abolish slavery. After the war was won and The Black People emancipated by a Republican Congress, the first time they could vote, two Republican Black Men were voted into Congress. Only 18 years after Emancipation, Booker T. Washington founded Tuskeegee University. The Black People were voting Republican, prospering in their new freedom and Democrats were outnumbered. They tried everything to intimidate and trick The Black People out of voting Republican but it wasn’t working, Republicans and The Black People were making advancements and prospering. The Democrats were being left behind. So they decided to change their strategy, and declared that now, they supported The Black People too, and obtained money and pulled strings to give The Black People free stuff like abortions, community funds, lowered expectations and “the bar” for them, and then declared Republicans to be racist because they didn’t believe “the bar” needed to be lowered for The Black People, nor that handouts could replace a person’s freedom to prosper. There’s “the switch” so often put forth by Democrats who cannot change their history of racism against The Black People. The parties never “switched”, the Democrats switched their propaganda strategy and have led The Black People from labor farms to voting farms. You need to do your due diligence and learn American history.
Most of what conservatives now believe to be true, is actually false.
The Democratic Party USED TO BE the party of southern conservatives. That was then. This is now.
Can you explain why today’s Black voters have completely rejected today’s Republican conservative movement?
One explanation is that Black voters discriminate between conservatism and liberalism and prefer liberal policies.
Even covians would agree that today conservatism dominates the GOP and liberalism dominates the Democratic Party.
Why do you think that Black voters don’t appreciate all the “good” that conservatism offers?
Are you ignorant or just stupid? The them “conservative” just like the terms “liberal” and “progressive” mean different things at different times in history. Black oppression was the hallmark of “democrat conservatism” not Republican, the entire Party built SPECIFICALLY to abolish slavery, endorsed by the SOUTHERN DEMOCRAT CONSERVATIVES of the day.
Today, black oppression is the “hallmark” of democrat party racism as demonstrated by the inner cities ruled over for decades by democrats and existing as modern democrat plantations where you keep your “house negroes” and pull them out to vote. You trap them in poverty while “giving” them just enough to live as long as they keep voting for your corrupt, racist party. You relegate them to ghettos with a bar or liquor store on every corner and always a local planned parenthood so they can facilitate the eugenic mass murder on blacks the way the democrat Sanger had envisioned. Refusing school vouchers so blacks can compete for better schools and keeping as far away as you can in your gated communities. THE SOFT BIGOTRY OF LOW EXPECTATIONS. You invented it. You own it.
If there is a “steam of crap” the lying, racist democraps are the ones shoveling, nobody else.
I’ve already gleaned from your comments that you’re an anti white racist, an Anglophobe, a Cristophobe, an oikophobe, anti free market and most likely a hater of Western culture and America. So now you’re anti black too. Quelle surprise!
Hoagie,
Why do you think that Black voters completely reject conservatism?
You don’t even know what a conservative is. Your ignorance is showing….again! Conservatives believe blacks should be able to legally own firearms to protect themselves. Conservatives believe blacks should have school choice. They should be treated as individuals not as “blacks”. We don’t think they should be treated any differently than anyone else.
However, your complete ignorance of what a conservative is creates the illusion “conservatism dominates the GOP”. There are very few conservatives in power in the GOP. Most GOP are moderates. I bet you think George “Medicare partD/No Chid Left Behind/Common Core” Bush was a conservative. To a GOP conservative he was a damn liberal.
Furthermore, it’s been decades since “liberalism” has dominated the democrat party. The liberals were usurped by the leftist radicals in the 60’s and 70’s. Again, what’s the difference between a democrat and a socialist? How about a communist? Zero, nada, zip, none. Your party is the party of an assortment of Marxists, pedophiles, racists, socialists, fascists, Alinskyites, Muslim appeasers, Frankfurt School acolytes, anti Christian bigots, cross dressers, trans whatevers, dopers, open border invader supporters and on and on.
And this quote could just as easily be a democrat party plank:
They don’t. Any time a black person is shown what conservatism actually is instead of what lying democrats “say” it is they join. You know like Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, Condoleezza Rice, Martin Luther King, JC Watts, Clarence Thomas, Michael Steele, Constance Berry Newman, Alan Keyes, Robert A. George, Herman Cain, Michael Powell, Lynn Swann to mention just a few.
Why don’t you compare that list of intellectual, talented and noteworthy Republicans of color with some of the great minds of color who are democrats like: Jeh Johnson, Shirley Chrisholm, John Conyers, Roy Dellums, Charlie Rangle, Maxine Waters, John Lewis, Elijah Cummings, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton and the entire brilliance of BLM. No contest.
No Jeff,
The Democrat Party was the party of Jefferson who was appalled at the passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts passed by the Federalists. Jefferson had the Sedition part repealed but left the Aliens part intact. This was later used by the great FDR to intern Americans for the crime of being of Japanese decent during WWII.
Then it was the party of Andrew “Trail of Tears” Jackson who forced Indians off their lands so whites could have access to grow cotton.
The Democrats are the party of segregation.
The party that breeds ignorance, yourself included.
Democrats teach blacks that police and law enforcement are the bad guys and should not be trusted.
The Democrats cause havoc in the black neighborhoods by restricting gun ownership by law abiding citizens only to be defenseless against criminals who roam the streets.
Democrats blame Whites for all the problem Black Americans have in this country, In this case they are correct. It is the Liberal Whites like yourself and your Black facilitators such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton that keep Blacks in poverty through poor schools breeding ignorance and dependence on government programs.
Go ahead Jeff and say something else stupid, I need another good laugh.
So your answer is that Black voters reject today’s Republicans because they are not sophisticated enough to know what’s really good for them.
You’ve listed about a dozen Blacks that you’ve persuaded. Great work. Only about 40,000,000 more to go!
Most of what conservatives believe to be true is actually false.
Let’s not leave out LBJ!
It was Democrat President Lyndon Baines Johnson who stated, “I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years†as he confided with two like-minded governors on Air Force One regarding his underlying intentions for the “Great Society†programs.
Yes, LBJ was a great progressive in every sense of the word, JGlanton.
What I’ve done is listed examples of black Americans who have rejected the leftists position of House Negoes.
Unless you’ve lost all your reading comprehension skills that is not anywhere near what I said. The inference was that the more our black American brothers are exposed to the information the left has spent trillions to hide the more newly minted Republicans we get.
One of my three best friends, since we were 14 years old Zach, is a black Republican. He is now a very successful retired dentist/surgeon who still is part owner of a company that performs implant dentistry. He alone has transformed hundreds of his fellow black Americans to the Republican fold. Once the lies and the perpetual condescension from democrats is removed all that’s left is that quote from LBJ. You see them merely as victims and votes, we see them as Americans. Once I explain how you are the party of the KKK they switch in a NY minute. And my dentist friend Ben turns people everywhere he goes.
BTW, I was Ben’s Best Man, and I’m Godfather to his three children. We go to dinner and the theatre together as families often and spend holidays at each other’s house. How’s your relationship with our black brothers?
J,
There is no good evidence that LBJ made that statement, although as a southerner of a certain generation he used the N-word liberally.
It was not consistent with other public and private statements he made.
Most of what conservatives believe to be true is actually false.
When he signed the Civil Rights Act he remarked to Bill Moyers that “We have just lost the South for a generation.” He was wrong of course. The Dems lost the South forever.
Hoagie,
Why argue with Jeff, especially about blacks. He is an authority on blacks as he had a few black friends. He will also lie like a dog. Then he has favorable things to say about LBJ. That indicates how bad the guy is.
There is exactly the same amount of evidence LBJ said that as there is for just about any other second hand quote in history. But there were I believe, two senators who said he did. It was very consistent with private remarks made by him and many other Southern democrats at the time. Generally they wouldn’t say that in public but in private anything went. I don’t know what you believe these racist Southern democrats in those days would say but I was alive then and that’s the way they talked.
Oddly, how do you think racist democrats refer to the poor blacks they keep chained to the democrat controlled ghettos of today? Do you think Hillary! refers to them as “the great and noble negro constituency”? I don’t. Anecdotally, I do know that while arguing politics once at my Club one of our resident leftists shouted in a tirade of angst: “we own the niggers, they’ll never vote Republican”. I assume others of your hateful ilk refer to them similarly when you think no one is around.
As the great black Republican JC Watts once said: “Character is doing the right thing when no one is looking”. That seems too difficult for envious, hate filled leftists. Hillary! being the prime example.
LOL, they ‘re trying to paint trump as the racist. Remember
Hillary was heard calling mentally challenged children ‘f*****g ree-tards’ and caught on record blurting out the terms ‘stupid k**e and ‘f***ing Jew b*****d’, while Bill called the Reverend Jesse Jackson a ‘G**damned n****r’.
Anointed democats can skate away with saying anything. Her followers will defend the worst behavior to the very ends of the earth. But if a republican hands out unsharpened pencils at a campaign stop, Hillary writes that he should be investigated for racism.
And there was a videotape of Michelle Obama griping about whitey. Hillary is having seizures. Obama is gay and uses coke. yada, yada, yada.
Conservatives are a gullible people.
LOL. And you believe those too? Gullible.
Hoagie,
I think you make up a lot of tales.
According to the internet Trump said he’ll be more popular than watermelon and fried chicken with African-Americans.
Here’s an LBJ quote reported by the reliable Bill Moyers:
This is still the philosophy used by conservatives.
Dr. Aveda King, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece endorsed Donald Trump for president.
She says his plan for the black community “is promising.â€
Dr. Alveda King: I listened very carefully to everything Mr. Trump has said in the last 72 hours or so and I fully agree with so many of the things that he’s saying. He has taken a page from the book of my daddy, A. D. King, and my uncle Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. looking at the climate, people and really being concerned about what’s happening in every community across America.
Jeffery, your LBJ quote from Bill Moyers can be perfectly true and accurate. Why not? I’m not proud of every word and deed I’ve done in my life, but then again I’m not a leftist so I’m supposed to be flawed. My problem is any person who would thinkanything like “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” let alone say it aloud is a manipulator, a thief, a racist and a greedy bastard. I don’t have time for people like that and you shouldn’t either. They’re bums.
You’re free to think anything you want Jeffery. I’m not the only person to have heard that about LBJ so there is no reason for me to make up a story. I just repeated the quote as I heard it, and I heard it first many, many years ago long before the irreconcilable differences between the left and the right in America. I heard it when guys like you were referred to as “The Loyal Opposition” by guys like me. Then some time after the 60’s and 70’s you guys went from the loyal opposition to down right un American. Everything about America was bad and everybody in it was too. We were no longer the opposition, we were “The Enemy” and we weren’t just wrong in your view, we were evil, racist ignorant rubes. We were supposed to shut up and let the smart kids run everything. Problem is the smart kids have been running everything especially in the big cities and sh!t’s getting worse not better. So far they haven’t fixed a thing but put us trillions in debt. But that’s another story.
Some, don’t you? Or are you such a pathological liar you can’t help but project the same onto every other person who lived in history? So according to Jeffery everyone’s a liar. Wow, what a sad demented way to see life.
History is not a court of law Jeffery, evidence can be hard to find. Often we need to rely on common sense and context. Sometimes we have to rely on the faith and honesty of other people. However, if one has neither faith nor honesty it is hard to believe it exists in other people.
You should work on that. It will make you a better man, or cis or whatever you leftists are calling yourselves this week.
You really need to understand that you, of all people, do not know what “conservatives believe”. You haven’t the foggiest idea and you prove it with the utter nonsense about Michele, Hillary! and Obama. I don’t know where you heard that but it sounds like propaganda planted by trolls. I find it hard to believe you would fall for such silliness.
He also challenged black men to do better themselves, and said they must not make excuses for their failures or blame society for the poor decisions they have already made.
“You will have to reject the cynicism that says the circumstances of your birth or society’s lingering injustices necessarily define you and your future,†Mr. Obama said.
Remarks by Mr. Obama when he announced “MY BROTHERS KEEPER” in 2014…..
Their solution?
Several Corporations and individuals stepped up to the plate:
White House officials said the foundations had pledged to spend at least $200 million over the next five years in a search for solutions to the problems black men face with early-childhood development, school readiness, educational opportunity, discipline, parenting and the criminal justice system.
Gail C. Christopher, vice president for program strategy for the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, which has committed $750,000 to My Brother’s Keeper, said the initial money would be used for hiring staff, consultants and firms “to get something established that has legs.â€
So while this is a step……
It is once again washington D.C at its finest….spend millions and millions on consultants and lawyers and studies and give away money to special interests
ALL WITH THE PROCLAIMED GOAL OF HELPING BLACKS……
and the results? Insignificant…..only promises to help….words to eat, good intentions to swallow…..
The end result……Blacks continue to suffer From MURDER as being the second highest rate of death for African Americans. Poverty still runs rampant in black communities.
And while I would be the first to admit that the RIGHT doesnt exactly paint a picture of model citizens when it comes to helping blacks……
Their Champions “THE LEFT” do little more then make promises every two years….then do almost nothing and blame everything on the GOP….
In a PPP poll only 28% of 2016 GOP primary voters believe Obama was born in the US. 72% believe he is foreign-born or are unsure.
According to economists Trump’s economic policies will cause a recession between 2017 and 2020. On the plus side they don’t expect a recession as deep as the 2007 housing bubble recession. But how will any economic recession help African-Americans?
Of course wealthy whites know what is best for Blacks because they fully understand what it is like to be Black in the USA
Just ask Teach how many Blacks work in his 3 stores and how that number reflects the racial make up of the communities they are in
Liam please remeber WHY the Blacks left their “wonderful life inDixie” and fled north. It was organized political terrorism that made them leave And yes 50-100 years ago it was Democrats that ran the states that supported the KKK
BUT since then the Democrats have been the champions of blacks and conservatives and racists now run the GOP
John, is everybody you disagree with a racist? I just explained in another thread how you animals on the left turned your party into a Nazi organization by calling your opponents filthy names and you step right up and prove me right.
You have absolutely no idea what a conservative is or believes. You’re too full of hate, bigotry and propaganda to even listen for one moment. But we sure know what a leftist is: someone spouting hate at rallies, hate on TV, hate on the internet. That would be you.
Your party owns racism, period. Even today it is the responsibility of your party that so many good black Americans are living in government induced squalor in the ghettoes of your democrat controlled inner cities.
Hoagie,
Why do most African-Americans disagree with you? Do you really think they are not sophisticated enough, or are too weak to resist “leftist” indoctrination?
Why do most African-Americans disagree with you? They are certainly free to vote for Republicans at every election but yet don’t. Why? Do you think Dems rig the vote?
Why do most African-Americans disagree with you? Why do Republicans from the local to federal levels try to suppress Black voters? (You will deny this but as we know, “Much of what conservatives believe to be true is actually false.”)
As “horrible” as life is for African-Americans (just listen to Scrooge McTrump) they vote against Republicans en masse. Why?
Can you explain why African-Americans vote for Democrats without disparaging their ethics, intelligence and work habits?
Liam please remeber WHY the Blacks left their “wonderful life inDixie†and fled north.
What has that got to do with anything I said?
BUT since then the Democrats have been the champions of blacks and conservatives and racists now run the GOP
You are totally delusional. Blacks and democrats are every bit as racist as any conservative or white person. Black Champions….champion the victimhood agenda…..keep em poor, keep em impoverished and keep em convinced that the left is the only ones that care for them.
The GOP does not seek out their vote because they are like 95 percent democrat even if its someone as bad as Hillary running. Why waste time seeking their vote when they HATE the GOP. HATE fills the left….you say the right is racist and hatemongers….
We dont hold a light to the hate and anger the left has for anything right of stalin.
Well, John is on to something, because wealthy Democratic Party elites keep telling blacks that if they continue to vote Dem things will eventually get better. After 50+ years of running urban areas.
I don’t run any stores, John. I stopped doing that years ago for different sales that are fun (and more money). However, there are more blacks working in the place I work than the actual overall black population. So, nice try, Sparky.
On this day in 1963 the great Christian minister and Republican Civil Rights leader, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his famous “I have a dream” speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, the great Republican President who freed the slaves. Fifty-three years later the democrats still can’t look at people as “Americans”, they’re always white, or black, or Hispanic, or women, or gay or whatever demographic the leftist need to exploit for votes at the time. Exploitation of minorities is what the democrat party does best. See any ghetto as an example.
Part of the conservative mythology.
“Much of what conservatives think to be true is actually false.”
Cons refuse to answer the question, “Why do 90% of African-Americans favor liberal/Dem policies for themselves and America over con/GOP policies”?
If conservative policies are so obviously better wouldn’t more African-Americans be on board? Why don’t African-Americans recognize the superiority of conservative policies?
I’ll answer that question for you. If your family for generations were told over and over that without the democrat leftists they would die, who would you vote for? That’s exactly what LBJ was talking about in the quote you took exception to. He was talking about how he was going to steal the money from the middle class and buy goodies for the black minorities drafting them on to the democrat plantation where they would stay eternally. What do you think the War on Poverty was about? Poverty? Don’t you think by now even stupid democrats could have eliminated poverty?
Here’s what Thomas Sowell says about you democrats and your exploitation an enslavement of American blacks:
http://a.disquscdn.com/uploads/mediaembed/images/4145/3003/original.jpg
If democrats champion the poor blacks why then are there ghettos of dirt poor black Americans stuck, yes stuck living in total poverty, drugs and crime and ignorance in every democrat run city? Because in order for you slavers to exploit them, you must control them. We Republicans took away your chains to control them with Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation so you replaced them with SNAP, SCHIP, Section 8, cash payments, hundreds of “support” (read “control”) payments and benefits forever making these people your indentured servants. You democrats are always about exploitation slavery and control. Look what you want for health care. You want to tell me what I have to buy, from who and for how much. You’re a party of slavers and exploiters and you’ll never be anything else. I had thought we caused a change in you back in the 60’s when some of you marched with us for equal rights. But no, you were just looking for a new way to break the black family, the black church, the black communities and the exploit them for their votes. You’ve done a good job but they are starting to wake up now. Like this lovely black American Republican:
https://youtu.be/ovl8qG3ciDs
Mr. Sowell has an opinion, and opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.
LBJ was describing how the Republicans are able to frighten poor whites into supporting counterproductive conservative policies, but I’m not surprised you misinterpreted the point. After all:
Much of what conservatives believe to be true is actually false.
And the Dems have NAMBLA and the Westboro Baptist Church, so what’s your fucking point?
Saying the Dr. Sowell has an opinion on race and history is like saying that Albert Einstein had an opinion on the relationship between energy and mass
Of course, Thomas Sowell is the Einstein of conservative racial political “science”, lol.
Nice one. Sowell says the only media he pays attention to is Rush Limbaugh.
What’s next, Newt Gingrich as a well-respected historian.
So the anti-gay, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic, primitive baptist church, Westboro, is suddenly a Democratic institution. They have pronounced Barack Obama to be the anti-Christ.
They protest against America and our military because the US permits homosexuality.
Their positions are closer to the alt-right than to the DNC.
It’s usually Republican House members who have legal difficulties involving underage boys. The Missouri House Speaker stepped down after sexting an intern, who was a girl, surprising for a Republican.
Jeff,
You’re the biggest Asshole of all.
Beaner sucks dicks.
