That]s a negative Ghost Rider.

Hundreds of thousands would not vote at all. You could not bus them to the polls or give them a pack of cigarettes to pull the lever like the DEM s do with the blacks.

There has never been a voting bloc as irrational and dedicated to a false narrative to compare with the black DEM bloc. Ever.

I suppose you mean inner city blacks.....since not every black person can fit into the category you describe in the OP...but yes, I agree that they have become the useful idiots of the Democratic Party much the way that rural evangelicals have for the Republican Party.

Have you seen the graduation rates and incarceration rates of inner city black youths? This is not exactly an educated, sophisticated, open minded bunch. Emotional appeals, division, and hate will always win out over logical arguments for at least the next generation.

I think the religious right gets "used" in the same way as well. I never understood why either party spends so much time pandering to the demographic that they've had sewn up for decades rather than trying to court the independent vote. The next R candidate could say they were pro abortion and the folks in the Bible belt would still pull the lever for them. Its the beauty of the 2 party system - you always have to hold your nose and vote.


Not true. The only reason the Republican Party isn't absolutely crushing right now is because people on the R side don't just blindly vote. The Democrats are so bad right now that anyone should be able to beat them. But, Republicans are leaning more Libertarian and not believing their small government RINO talk anymore.
