You better get used to seeing more Black Folks, cause you’re going to see more and more. If you stayed tuned after the speech, Paul Ryan crossed back over the room, and, shook hands with “all” the folks that were sitting behind him, including the Black family you referred to. All of this family was thrilled to be shaking hands with Paul Ryan.
Yes......there are Black folks that realize and recognize the severe damage that Obama, his wife, Michelle, the Democrat party, NAACP, the CBC have done to damage Blacks in America. I will admit that their number is few, but with more and more Blacks getting it, that number will increase. Having Artur Davis, Alan West, Tim Scott, Walter Williams, Herman Cain and many more is causing some focused, open minded Blacks to open their eyes and ears to see and listen to an effective path to freedom, liberty, opportunity and the pursuit of happiness in living out the American dream as an equal to all other Americans, rather then remaining forever on the “Obama, NAACP, CBC, and the Democrat Party” economic slave plantation.
And....yes, in my postings, I am very harsh in my treatment of Black Americans, only because i believe they are blind and cannot see their future and children’s future before them, as they stagnant, under the stifling boots of their own chosen, false, power hungry leadership!!! One can only hope!!!
while living in Cleveland, OH. for over 50 years worked with and had many black friends..husband did as well and so did our kids, and now that the kids are adults they have black friends that they work with, live by and socialize with...
and I did stay tuned and I thought Ryan walked down a few steps and shook hands with the front row...I did not notice him turn around and greet the folks on stage...maybe I was not watching close enough!!! what ever...
I think we will see more and more blacks supporting the GOP. They are as smart and entrepreneurial as whites but they are being held back by the “black leaders” (Dems) for the benefit of the latter and I think a lot of them are getting tired of it.
An interesting thing is that when you see black Hispanics from the Caribbean (Dominicans in New York, for example, and some Cubans, although Castro is very harsh on black Cubans and it has been very hard for them to emigrate), they do just fine because they’re not sitting around with a chip on their shoulders.
And most of them were originally brought to the New World as slaves. While the Spanish didn’t practice pure chattel slavery the way the English and the Americans did (Spanish slaves in theory had legal rights, could be baptized, marry, earn money, buy their freedom, etc.), in practice this depended largely on the individual who owned them. So many Afro-Caribbeans had horrible circumstances too. But once they had opportunity, they went for it.
And black Americans want a chance to do the same and not be told by the Dems that they need to wait and have the government give it to them. I guess maybe if they want 40 acres and a mule, Bambi could come up with that...and remember, that’s his attitude.
He’s not a black American. He’s the mixed-race child of a foreign student father he never knew and he was brought up in a well-off white family or in foreign countries. He married Michelle Ma Belle mostly to give himself some black creds.
But he himself has nothing in common with American blacks.
