No.

Cummings is treating them in perfect accord with how they see themselves as deserving to be treated. If it were not so, the reality of the situation would not be as it is.

Be realistic. Ignore emotional urges to fantasize reality into something other than what it is. I wish it were different, but, you know what they say about wishes.

It is what it is.

PS I'm sorry if I sound mean.

There's certainly something to those beliefs...it's the safe bet historically speaking. But there's also a new reality that came about in 2016 that completely upended much of what we thought would never change or happen.

I certainly admire altruism and a sincere desire to die on a hill for perfectly selfless reasons. We get medals in my business for that sort of thing. Might even become canonized as a Saint, if the altruistic individual is Catholic.

I suppose that we are morally obligated to try.

No way.
Larry Langford (birmingham mayor) was a marter for the struggle against the man after he was convicted.
Wiki;
quote:

On December 1, 2008, Langford, along with investment banker William B. Blount and former state Democratic Chairman Al LaPierre, were all arrested by the FBI on a 101-count indictment alleging conspiracy, bribery, fraud, money laundering, and filing false tax returns in connection with a long-running bribery scheme.[3] His public corruption trial ended on October 28, 2009, with convictions on 60 counts, and resulted in his automatic removal from office.[4]

On March 5, 2010, Langford was sentenced to 15 years in prison by a federal judge in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. He was also fined more than $119,000.[5]

It's just not the same world it was a presidency ago. I feel confident the Dems are turning some people away and leaving some behind, the reasons for that being more blatantly unabashed than ever before.

And btw Im not proposing huge cuts into traditional Dem votes, just more than ever before.

Pipe dream. The vast majority of blacks only get propaganda talking points. They have zero mental independence.

I have black coworkers that I've been trying to convert for years. Many, many years.

I can talk core politics with them... not identity politics, not partisan politics... just core issues. And it's great because they agree with my conservative view points as long as I don't mention that Trump shares some of the same views.

But I don't ever see them voting anything other than Democrat, unfortunately. When the cards fall, they might agree with me, but they believe MS13NBC and CNNPC. I can't even mention President Trump without having to hear that the racial tensions in America are higher than ever before, and that white supremacists have come out of the woodwork and are bold about it, all because of the Bad Orange Man.

Personally it makes me sick but it is what it is. I won't stop trying to get them to see the big picture but I also admit my efforts are futile so long as these guys put their faith in Mourning Joe, Don Lemonade and Rachel Madcow. I called Sharpton a blatant racist bigot today and they all got pissed at me but had no legitimate rebuttal to my statement.

I was fixing to guess....maybe 20%.

The middle class are going to be too racist or dragged under by their racist friends. The lowers are too busy thuggin to know or care.

Ask yourself this, will South Americans fight to clean up their own country? It's a cultural problem.

Here's an interesting video from a black dude in Baltimore. It's long but the first 15 minutes or so says a lot. If you don't think that the dem narrative is losing its persuasive power, you should take a closer look. NSFW for language.
