NOT lying to them like Democrats who: use them, take them for granted, insult their intelligence, or treat them like lost little helpless children.
Coincidently appointing black Americans to Cabinets positions based upon their qualifications (Rice, Powell), instead of tokenist appointments in unimportant positions (Elders, Espy, Brown)
"The Republicans inculcate, with whatever ability they can, that the Negro is a man, that his bondage is cruelly wrong, and that the field of his oppression ought not to be enlarged. The Democrats deny his manhood; deny, or dwarf to insignificance the wrong of his bondage; so far as possible, crush all sympathy for him, and cultivate and excite hatred and disgust against him; compliment themselves as Union-savers for doing so; and call the indefinite spreading of his bondage 'a sacred right of self-government.'" .........Abe Lincoln
PING!
mhking, trueblackman, and rdb3 are excellent leaders in the African American community and highly respected here at FR. It would be great to get their input.
Gentlemen, big bad easter bunny has a question: How has Bush helped African Americans? Thanks in advance.
TAX CUTS, No Child Left Behind, WOT for starters
What did Bush do for German-Americans?
I don't even hear him mention German-Americans, let alone appoint any, or give any preferences.
Could you please see what you can do about getting together a film about this, to help German-Americans.
Democrats preach, W practices.
There are many more in previous posts.
Easter bunny - I need your help to figure out how to get reparations from the black ex-slaves. 2 of my ancestors died in the Civil War, on the Union side, to free the slaves. I figure, at the rate the rest multiplied, I would have had 48 more relatives.
So, I figure, the ex-slaves owe me and my family for 48 relatives. Let's take a nominal sum, say @1 million each, that's $48 million.
Could you start a film for a collection for reparations from all those ex-slaves, for the relatives of those who died in the civil war, please.
He hasn't "panderscended" (a modification of a Mickey Kaus word) by espousing (inferiority-required) special treatment
I calculated my reparations debits/credits and have discovered I have enough for a Starbucks medium sized coffee.

LOL - Sort of like the tax cuts of washington. I worked for 40 years, and went through innumerable tax 'cuts' - lots of propaganda, both Republican and Democrat, and dozens of tax 'cuts'. In all that time, only once, did my take home pay actually go up and that was by $1.68 per month.
72 - ""Victims for Life" crowd"
Good description. Good observation.
You're joking right?
What you need is another question. Why should a President help any ethnic group of people? The President serves the people. Period. RINOS want to sell conservatism to minorities by acting like liberals. Not conservatives. Intelligent and wise people are conservative. That's the only way you can sell conservatism. Sell folks on the worth of wisdom.

BINGO!! You win a cigar !!
Isn't another African-American the head of the FCC, Michael Powell? Bush's leadership also assisted in the first African-American Lt. Gov. in Maryland, Mr. Steele. He has built up the party to have several African-American Republican candidates running this year...including the wonderful Mr. Cain, in GA.
Safer streets, school choice, lower taxes, stronger economy, home ownership, treating them like equals. Mr. Bush has done a lot for all Americans of all colors, visitors or not in this wonderful country.
If a person of any race wants to know what a politician is going to "DO" for them, then they don't need to be in the republican party. Let the Dems buy thier vote (with our money)
