He actually counters this statement later on, and points out that many Blacks vote Democrat simply because they have been told to do so. The perception is that Democrats help them but Republicans hurt them. Hmmm? If that's the case, why has the War on Poverty and similar programs passed during Democrat-control Congresses failed to change the relative position of Blacks in the economic spectrum? The reason is because Democrats need to make them dependent on them in order to maintain power. Contrary to the Democrat belief that encouraging private enterprise is a bad thing, Republicans know that a rising tide lifts all boats. Alas, the GOP doesn't know how to get this message across.
If by "He" you refer to the author, please point out where "he" does this. I don't see it anywhere in the article. Nowhere.
Please, show me.

No, he actually builds on it. You're assuming that the deep-seated racist tendencies he refers to are those of white people.
He points out that it's racism among blacks, rather than on the part of the Tea Party members, that's causing the Tea Party events to be attended by predominantly white crowds.
The problem is a bit morepervasive than that. Republicans can make the case all day long and it would make no difference. You can lead a horse to water, you cannot make it drink. For as long as our Afro-bro's cling to the lie that they will receive some benefit for resisting being assimilated into American "cracker") culture, they will not listen... not as a group, anyway.
There will always be the Herman Cain, Alan Keyes, J.C. Watt, Clarence Thomas blacks; exceptionally well educated, impeccably well-spoken, etc. And these will always be in the marked minority for the simple reason that it just ain't kool to "sell out" like a "Tom" and become a traitor to that wunnerful "blackness."
A tragic exapmle of this sad truth was the honor student black kid a few months back who was beaten to death on the way home from school by his black schoolmates, just for doing well in school. Just for applying himself.
To his 'hood homeys, he was a traitor. Paying attention in school is frowned upon. Learning to speak well has consequences, given how badly brainwashed are the general inner-city black community of schoolkids at this point. All of this is the direct result of the Liberals pushing of a far more convenient message. Affirmative Action, Reparations, you have things coming which are due you just because you're black. It breeds this ghetto lingo, hip-hop, simian antics, flash-mob rip-off mentality, and no amount of GOP "selling" the "if you work hard and earn it, you can have, or be, anything you want," is going to change the mind that has chosen the lazy path of professional victimhood.
The Liberals whom the black community see as their "best friends" in this vile charade are in fact responsible for millions of dead black youth; crack babies, aborted fetuses, three-time-loser convicts, and an entire class of downtrodden people held back and kept down by the Liberal lies.
It is as sick and disgusting as were Stalin's pogroms or Hitler's death camps. The results have been identical.
