I'm on my phone so can't reply to all points individually. The only thing I'll say is that whether the Asian piece is a mathematical outlier remains to be seen. It's an extreme bump but you can certainly draw a pattern...Asians supported Obama at statistically significant levels as well.

Please define an "average black person".

If you are going to bitch about over-generalization you probably should read the post that you wrote
Or you do you lack that level of self-awareness or intellect
Lol. Of course you do. Who am I kidding

It's not profound. It's painfully obvious to everyone.

That's not the point.

No, I'm discussing the conservatives who make it a racial issue.

You are racist.
So what? You think I'm going to fall for your race-baiting? I'm immune to your silly Jedi mind tricks.

You think your white knighting for the poor dumb dark people
No I don't. I'm just calling out the hypocrisy of the so-called conservatives.

You think calling me names is going to scare me into re-evaluating my observations - it won't.
I've been called far worse things than 'racist', believe me.

Prime example of making stupid generalizations because you are ignorant of "conservatives"
Middle class people of any race share many of the same values, most people (except you and Tex) believe that

No. I'm asking why the average black person should consider voting Republican.
The average black person(?) should consider voting Republican, because it’s typically the more conservative option of the two main choices we have in this country.
Philosophically, conservatives believe in the following tenets:
- All men are created equally
- Right to free speech
- Right to defend oneself
- Sovereign citizenship
- Protection from foreign threats
- Protection of religious expression
- Limited government
If you’re asking me to cross-walk how “protection of religious expression” comports with your view of what is important to the “average black person” (I’ve zero clue what this means), I can’t.
I simply don’t understand your question, beyond what I’ve offered.
I’m not trying to stonewall or be obtuse, I just don’t get it.

The question is: Why should a black person consider voting Republican -- not why do you think a black person should vote Republican.

It's a hypothetical, it's not an overgeneralization.
Don't call me a racist because you disagree that most black people are too smart, in general, to vote based on #anyonebuthillary. But for my money that's a terrible reason to vote Republican.

I was gone for an hour, and this thread got weird. I wish I had time to read it all. Sounds like some gold buried in there. Why would black people vote republican? That was an actual post. Good god people.

I don't think the average middle class black person is much different than a middle class white person.
I think you have identified the problem of why no one has answered the question.
The average black person is not middle class. What reason would the average black person have for voting Republican?

I didn't say they didn't. I did imply that the middle class of blacks is smaller as a proportion of the black population compared to the ratio of MC/poor in whites. I also implied that the average net wealth of middle class blacks is less than that of the middle class whites.
While I don't have the data in front of me, I'll stand by that until I see data proving otherwise.

That isn’t true, Powerman.
All are equal, and all non-criminals are welcome into the US.
(I assume this is an immigration jab)
Foreign citizens must do what my mother did: Immigrate to the US by going through legal channels.
That’s it.
