And this is the reason that the dems have become so shrill in their support of illegal aliens, and support for open borders, while shouting down the concept of voter ID, so only legitimate citizens can vote.
They know they're losing the Black vote and need to replace them with new voters they can control. Some Blacks are beginning to realize they've been used as cannon fodder since the "Great Society," where LBJ is reported to have said they'd have the "ni***r vote for the next 200 years." It hasn't quite been 200 years, but they've been been reliable. Maybe there's some hope that Blacks who aren't completely dependent on the government, or those who are and realize the poison that it's become, are waking up.

I had to google that one.
Turns out the source was Air Force One steward Robert MacMillan, who reported that LBJ uttered this comment to two governors during a conversation on the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Snopes, of course, denies the authenticity of the quote. But the link above offers a convincing rebuttal.
