He's also so often egregiously wrong, perhaps never more so than in his Monday column at the Hill. Williams is astonished that a recent poll, consistent with others, shows that over two-thirds of blacks support a photo identification requirement for voting. In the process, he cited perhaps the dumbest statistic I've ever seen on the topic, misrepresented a 2013 Supreme Court decision, and failed to understand that blacks may end up being most adversely affected if voter fraud ever become widespread.

Black voter turn out apparently hit historic highs in Georgia in 2008 despite voter ID laws enacted in 2005.
can someone tell me why 2/3 support it? is there a glimmer of a chance of a smidgen of hope for them?
The undocumented democrat votes?
Black Americans know they are being sold down the river with the amnesty for illegal aliens.
But if there is no voter fraud, how come some black districts have recorded 140% turnouts with Obama on ballot?
It would appear than Juan is looking to run for dog catcher or Secretary Of Defense.
Juan, it’s amazing, and likely racist to suggest there is any reason minorities would want to avoid getting a photo ID.

“Most blacks are actually law-abiding citizens, and they don’t like the idea of their votes being watered down by fake votes any more than any other law-abiding citizens.”
lol. he seems like a nice guy and his son is a republican but he drives me crazy.
that great! no one wants them to do badly. a lot of them have just been brainwashed into thinking that.
i wonder if this will get media play. And republicans should jump on it.
Juan is all about Juan...
In my observing the republicans for 5 decades, they (leaders in party) are very inept in exposing favorable issues and facts. They worry incessantly about offending someone.
Oh yeah, if they don’t it yet they’ll know soon enough when Latinos start taking over the leadership positions in the Democratic Party and push a lot of the older Black leaders to the curb.
i had that disease but this board beat it out of me :)
The majority want a ban on abortions after 20 months. Now we know the majority of blacks want ID laws.
But not a peep.
On the plus side, he seems to have decided to give up smirking and grimacing as his primary methods of debate (on the Five at least).
Exactly. And I'm sure most of these law-abiding blacks are deeply insulted that Sharpton, the "Gentle Giant" and urban ferals are becoming the faces of their community, thanks to the leftist media.
I stopped the five after Greg and Dana went full RINO on gay marriage. “don’t touch the social issues”.
they only define a country.
Well, in this age of all things progressive and transparent, it is time for all people to vote.
This age requires we know who you are and have the right to vote. We don’t care how you vote, just whether you have the right.
The Negro race cannot handle it. The Latino race will eat it up.
