Rivals Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton will speak at the same event for the first time during the presidential campaign when they deliver their messages to black voters at the National Urban League conference in Fort Lauderdale on Friday, a gathering that will also draw three more 2016 contenders.
Bush has frequently said that he will campaign where Republicans often don't venture, including in black communities that overwhelmingly vote Democratic and helped President Barack Obama win the swing state of Florida. But the goal for Bush is to chip away at that loyal blue base in Florida where the outcome — should he become the party's nominee — could be razor thin.
The former Florida governor has tried to reach out to black voters by citing his achievements in and out of office, particularly his push to close the achievement gap and expand opportunities for minority students. Founded in 1910, the National Urban League is a civil-rights organization that aims to empower under-served communities.

Not to the Democrats. Or certain Republican candidates.
Which is why they will lose - whitey still makes up 70% of the country.
