Breitbart ^ | August 28,2015 | PAM KEY

Posted on 08/28/2016 8:05:54 AM PDT by Hojczyk

On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway pledged the campaign will be doing minority outreach events in inner cities

.Conway said, “I pledge to you and everybody who is watching, Those events are actually being planned. And we are very excited about them. Look, John McCain and mitt Romney are fine — they’re wonderful human beings, great Americans. they were fine presidential nominees. John McCain got 4 percent of the African-American vote, and Mitt Romney improved that to a whopping 6 percent. We’re fighting for every single vote. We’re going to leave it all on the field. that includes going where the voters are and taking the case directly to them.”

You seem to have some stereotype of blacks fixed in your mind. I can assure you that a large percentage of black people are not part of the gangsta culture, and despise the thugs in their environment as much as you do.

Even so, most of those otherwise decent people vote Democrat, because they’re conditioned to do so. A lot of them will step off the plantation if Trump merely appeals to them with his empowering message.

Maybe it’s not whether they’ve been brought to hell but whether they’ve been blacked (no pun intended) out by the propaganda machine.

“It would also help if it was organized by members of the Black community with lots of local Black support...”

I don’t think there are enough blacks on board the Trump Train yet, to pull off something like that. Over time, I believe there will be, but we’re talking the next election.

Donald’s got some vocal and staunch black supporters, but they’re spread thin, and still as rare as unicorns in the black community.

I’m not quite sure how her going to set up there forays into ‘enemy territory’ and come away with positive results. Its going to take some genius planning to pull it off.

I have no doubt, though - once inside the gate, Trump will be unstoppable.

I agree. Accompanied by Ben Carson and Colonal West might be beneficial too if they are not perceived as part of the establishment. However, on the flip side, they could relate to their experiences as to how they became successful.

“They are not going to willingly allow him to go where he might confuse the minds of those who the ‘rats count on every two years.”

I’m thinking the same thing.

Trump might have to resort to getting his message past the plantation razor wire via televised town hall events, attended by a majority black audience. Run them on YouTube, or some other open comm line that bypasses the media.

And that is exactly the type of stereotyping and negative thinking that has gotten Republican candidates no AA support for the past 60 years.

Worth the effort. Even a gain of a few % can make a big difference in the election. Especially swing states. At worst he picks up a couple % points, but the possibility of devastating the democratic party exists if he gets 15% or more.

“75% illegitimacy rate. How is Trump going to stop that ?”

I’m not arguing with your basic premise. Its true that much of the needed change within the black community must come from within.

The point I’m making to you, is that there’s still a sizable percentage of the black population that hasn’t yet been degraded to death by LibDem socialist policies and the resultant rot it’s produced in that community.

Those are the people Trump can reach, and there are enough of them to swing this election into landslide territory.

Trump should tell them...

“I am NOT going to re-allocate wealth; I am going to make new wealth in the inner city like has never been done before, Jobs, Safety, Pride, Small and large business Opportunities, Education opportunities. Allow the Black American community to excel like they have never been given the chance to do before! They will gain wealth and all America will be so proud of Black America !”

I know you were born a poor, black, child. But the point is that all blacks are not the same.

I don’t think there’s anyway to reach the inner city blacks, they will always vote Rat, no matter what you do.

But there are increasing numbers of middle-class blacks who mostly share our values, who have been largely ignored by the GOP, and while they may vote Rat, are mostly despised by the Rat powers the be, or are taken for granted. This is where the opportunity lies. The GOP must try to become the Party of the Black Middle Class. It’s a waste of time for the GOP to try to “Go Gangsta.”

stop saying Romney and McCain were great candidates.

Don't see her saying that, she says they are great Americans.
She goes on to say "they were fine presidential nominees"...damned with faint praise.
