Today, Democrats, in pursuit of their socialist agenda, are fighting to keep blacks poor, angry and voting for Democrats. Examples of how egregiously Democrats act to keep blacks in poverty are numerous. -snip-
Democrats have been running our inner-cities for the past 30 to 40 years, and blacks are still complaining about the same problems. More than $7 trillion dollars have been spent on poverty programs since Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty with little, if any, impact on poverty. Diabolically, every election cycle, Democrats blame Republicans for the deplorable conditions in the inner-cities, then incite blacks to cast a protest vote against Republicans.
He would have scoffed at the idea of black poor and unemployed working for agencies such as ACORN which chooses to use them and abuse their integrity by subjecting them to the most corrupt and manipulating system, that in the end keeps them dependent on the same system....a different kind of Plantation...when will the poor black Americans wake up and become aware that the Democrat party uses them to stay in power
The poor bastards are played every election cycle.You would think thatey would wake up.Nah
He was a republican until Nixon didn’t call him when he was arrested in 1960 (Nixon didn’t think it was appropriate). Kennedy did call him and King put his support behind Kennedy and the democrats and blacks have supported democrats since.
It’s been debunked.
That was MLK, Sr., who was a self-declared Republican prior to that point in mid-1960. We’ve never been able to ascertain which party Jr. supported prior to 1960. But clearly he never was one after 1960. He called Goldwater a tool of Southern racists, nevermind his support for Civil Rights (albeit opposed to the big gov’t aspects of the CRAs).
