I know most of us lean conservative on this board. I personally have more liberal leanings, but I always promote self determination and preservation.


I grew up in a traditional black neighborhood. Black churches are essentially conservative Democratic hubs. I dislike how most of them use grievance as a tool. I feel like people should work and not rely solely on welfare.

I think people should strive to become better, not rely on the government to always intervene.

What they don't realize is that whatever the GOVT mandates, it can always be appealed.

Religious blacks being Dem is a mystery to me. The party of tiny human killing and gays rights when gay blacks are so often the ones that get discriminated against the most in their own communities.

They successfully sell shitty policy to their constituents, who think their systemic problems can be legislated or subsidized away.

My biggest problem with black democrats is that they have allowed themselves to talked into fighting FOR remaining on the Democratic plantation.

Very sad for them.

I don't have a problem with blacks expressing their political rights and aligning themselves with who they want to. That's freedom.

I do, however, have a problem with blacks acting like democrats have been some amazing force for good in the black community, either in the past or present.

I think it has harmed the black community greatly that they don't even consider throwing out under-performing democratic politicians in their districts and states. A politician will have much less incentive to do good if they know they will win reelection regardless, by like 80%.

Look at someone like corrine brown, the most corrupt representative in years. If she wasn't indicted, she would have won reelection in her district by huge margins.

More like they successfully convince constituents that the opponent is racist and hates black people. Lets not pretend they try to sell traditionally black communities on policy. Dems play the race card because they believe inner city blacks are stupid and incapable of understanding policy. It blows my mind that republicans allow themselves to be painted as the racist party.

My pet peeve has always been black politicians and political commentators who say "Black voters are not monolithic."
Yes, they are.
They vote Dem in much higher percentages than any demographic you can think of. Higher than gays, Hispanics, Jews.

I don't understand why they align themselves with the party of slavery. Something like 90+% of Democrats who voted against the Civil Rights Act died as Democrats.

That's not a loaded question at all.

Skin color ---> Irrelevant
Bad policies ---> Relevant

I don't think blacks as a whole are quite ready to be serious actors at the government level. I think they'd be much happier in an agricultural setting. A place where they didn't have to make confusing decisions or worry about what they're doing everyday. We should take them under our wing and provide for them. You know food, clothing, place to stay and such. Of course they would be so grateful that they'd want to work the farms and who are we to argue. I would imagine that some would have to be coaxed into doing it, them not knowing what's good for them and all but after the right kind of persuasion I'm sure they'd be happy to put in a days work. Yep we'd be one big happy family.

That most of the black Dems I know on a personal basis hold the same values and policy opinions as I hold as a conservative, but they will never consider voting that way, only Democrat.

Not really a "problem," more like exasperating.
