Two random thoughts evoked by this:
1) Listening to C-Span as I do, the vilest, most biggoted, ignorant, anti-Freemarket, anti-property, anti-Republican, anti-American remarks EVERY weekend are made by Blacks.
2) How much more of the Party's conservatism will have to be jettisoned to accomidate those who do not believe in the principles of smaller government and self-reliance?
No need, in this case. School choice gets around 80% approval in the black community. School choice is the issue to break the government monopoly on education and introduce real competition in education. While many do not embrace conservative principles in the black community, on this issue there is common ground and another entrance into the GOP's big tent.
And Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I have mostly given up on C-SPAN because they took a decidedly hard Left turn "coincidentally" at the same time as Republicans gained majority the House in 1994. C-SPAN turned from "neutral" to Left so fast it gave me whiplash.
