In all seriousness, if you listen to Stacey Dash on any given podcast, she’s obviously very intelligent and is capable of exploring virtually any topic in depth.

Candace Owens barks talking points for the stupid people who watch cable. I have no idea if she’s actually smart because she’s never said anything that’s actually smart.


I agree. I don't care if she is conservative. I love the fact that more Blacks are exploring different political parties. The issue is that her dialogue is mostly retaliation to SJWs and spouting the usual right-wing talking points.

She makes the mistake of overlooking the fundamental issue of black families. It is the black family breakdown that causes problems. The politics is mostly semantics. Voting Republican isn't going to fix the problems in and of itself. People making better decisions can.

I could easily make the argument that minorities should demand more from their local representatives regardless of party.

And i have nothing against Owens and think her effect is ultimately good. The more diverse (intellectually) that the black community is seen to be, the more both major political parties will be motivated to effectively enfranchise them.

If virtually all blacks vote Democrat, the Dems can take them for granted and the GOP has no reason to fight for their vote. This hurts black people. If even a small percentage goes rogue, then both parties are forced to fight for this demographic’s vote. It can only be good for them.

Absolutely true.

I just don't get that at all. The policies of one party are directly tied to the collapse of the black family AND the frightening descent of many inner city neighborhoods with large black populations into third world shithole status - the War on Poverty(tm) and gun control.

Traditional Western/American values are heavily promoted by one party - the party of black folks until the 1930s. The party without the stain of slavery or Jim Crow. The party of Lincoln.

ETA: The War on Drugs(tm) is about all you can hang on the Rs and they're about to drop that like a hot potato in the coming 6 to 8 years.

The issue is that the majority of the black community support an entity that plays the huge role that put them in that position in the first place. The Democrats use them for votes and votes only. Go to any major big city. Go to urban areas in that city and compare the conditions to the suburbs. Go there on an Election Day and see which party usually gets >85% of the votes. Now 4 years later, go back to that same urban area and try to do an eye test to see if anything has changed. Trump said exactly this during his 2016 campaign. It's a vicious cycle that has poisoned the black community for 50 years.

You want diversity? People have to offer different ideas and stop the Democrat group-think. That's the true diversity. The issue that the Democrats see today with the likes of Candace Owens, Ben Carson, and Kanye West isn't the fact that they "aren't black enough." Their issue is that they are starting to see their dam start to leak which they know can turn into a breach. More people are starting to open their eyes to the reality that the Democratic Party isn't the "helpful party" that they claim to be.
