Year 2010 - American Socialists Release Names of 70 Congressional Democrats in Their Ranks
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2570536/posts
I ran quick and dirty analysis of the 2009 list of publicly self acknowledged socialists. From the list 29 of those listed were African Americans and at that time there was a total of 41 African American members of Congress. Thus, over 70% of African Americans serving in the Congress were acknowledged socialists. Thus, it can be reasonably inferred that the African American electorate is overwhelmiingly socialistically inclined and those saying Republicans should make greater efforts in recruiting blacks are suggesting that Republicans should embrace socialistic principles.
