I think the failed leadership of Obama and the unrelenting insults against whites who don’t agree with the Fabian/Democrat Socialist agenda are what has killed the Democrat Party. Now, only white snobs, pro-statism, big government loons, pony-tailed professors, poverty stricken underclass blacks, and Democrats on-the-make still believe in the Obama led Democrats.

They’re literally a minority party. The white stool in the rainbow coalition has literally dropped off.

Not so fast, bud. This is only true in the South.

In the North, there are plenty of states with 85%-90% of White populations, which are comfortably and deeply Democratic - Oregon, Washington, Vermont, Rhode Island, etc.

That’s odd — I’ve never, ever seen a headline from the Partisan Media Shills like this:

> Monolithic Black Vote for Democrat Doomed Republican

It’s almost as if the racism inherent in that persistent rubber-stamping doesn’t fit their narrative.

That is true. I have to go to R.I. sometimes and the place is very depressing.

I don’t understand them at all. I think they are very ignorant of the rest of America.

The Republican nominee for President needs to endlessly talk about how the Dem’s gave 5 million, (not counting the chain immigration that WILL happen) illegals the jobs that should go to black citizens. Peel them off....some of them are waking up.

“I don’t want to demean black Americans, and there are many, who live the American lifestyle and enjoy it’s rewards.”

True, but their percentage of the whole is very small. There are too few Sheriff Clarke’s and too many Michael Brown’s. As long as we allow “phony racism” to drive “public assistance,” the numbers won’t move much. I have watched over the past twenty years or more here in California how the Black’s “teamed up” with the Mexicans to form a “political alliance,” which is now falling apart now that the Mexicans have become a political force. They don’t need the Black’s any longer and as a consequence, Black influence is seriously on the wane here. And as we continue to have high housing prices, Blacks are being forced out of our cities. Whole areas of San Francisco that used to be Black ghettos, are now torn down and rebuilt to house the folks from Google, Apple and Facebook. So now the only “view” Blacks have is out the back window of the bus taking them elsewhere.

John Schindler: My sweet Southern mama was hardcore Democrat. Now she’s hardcore Republican. Used to worship JFK, now Fox. None of her views have changed.

Mama always thought she was a liberal, then she woke up one day and was told she was backwards & racist. She didn’t change, the country did.

"Wait until Elijah Cummings, James Clyborn, Marcia Fudge, Sheila Jackson Lee and Hank Johnson start demanding leadership positions and become the faces of the Democratic Party to the general public... "

There is already a "black face" leading the party to it's promised black utopia in America:
Barack Hussein (Ebola) Obama.

Aside from the trivial matter of skin color, is there really any fundamental difference between Al Sharpton and George Wallace?

George Wallace did become a Christian in his later years and repented of his racism.

If a third of black voters start defecting, they’re finished.

What do you think Ferguson is about? Expect many more Fergusons in the future.

I live in RI. The people are not as liberal as it seems. Regular coffee shop conversations makes me scratch my head as folks are very conservative. What’s happened over the past 70 years is that the Democrats have consolidated all power to themselves. They’ve even taken the power of the Mafia. Any new and upcoming Republicans have their lives investigated and their reputations destroyed. It’s a model for what Obama and company have in store for the nation.

Black voters are unlikely to start defecting.

White WOMEN, on the other hand, who are a major Dem constituency, may be another story.

Before Obama, there was an enormous pool of concern and sympathy for the plight of poor blacks among white folk. Black may disbelieve all they want, but it's true. Or rather, it WAS true before Obama, Sharpton, the Zimmerman trial, the Ferguson riots, etc, etc.

God help American blacks when the pool of good will dries up.

I did not mean to offend you but what I see there is a systematic poor class that has no defense against the rich.

Doesn’t John Kerry moor his sloop in Narraganset? We all know why.

I am very disappointed with RI for keeping the status quo year after year, generation after generation. It is utter ignorance.

Good for him! But did Wallace also renounce his liberalism?

I really don't know but at the very least he repented of the racism aspect of liberalism after he became wheel chair bound. He went around to black churches testifying of his change and asking for forgiveness, he was well received among black Christians.

The comparison was between $harpton and Wallace. Do you think we will ever see the day when “reverend” Al repents?
