If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Yep. Those are the people that managed to escape from the mental cage the Democrats have built around them. In my opinion, Jessie and Al love that cage, because it keeps THEM , their Hollywood friends, and their politicians living in luxury.
Bluegrass found it first ....post #15...It was posted once as a thread, but late in the evening IIRC, DO you think it should be reposted in prime time....can't remember who posted it first, but she was a friend of Frances? IIRC Rice has having trouble getting it printed in newspapers although she had sent it out as a LTE, only a few bit.
I'd like to see it mass produced/distributed but have no idea how to get that job done.
Instead he hunkered down and ignored them. Now it's too late.

Bush should put this paragraph into his Convention speech. Many people have no idea what the Republicans have done for them. No one has ever told them.
The problem IMO is this....After reading the letter (weeks ago), my thoughts were this is a gold mine. However, I'm in the middle of Southern Indiana, very few African American live here and the ones that do are middle class conservatives who already know the facts....
I considered going to Black Expo in Indy and distributing it, but how well do you think it would be received from this blue-eyed fair skin woman.....The only way this material can get out is "Through the grapevine" I don't mean that in any negative way...But one person needs to share it with others etc etc...as in "I heard it through the grapevine."
The AA community would no more accept these facts from Bush or the RNC than from me----too racist--thanks to JJ & CO....It needs to be distributed to each other....now where do we begin???
And then watched as the celebrities he invited and promoted were brought up on drug charges, rape charges, etc.
OK.
The President has had very little to do with celebrities in the past 4 years and that's smart, I think.
For those Americans like myself who do not worship celebrities, President Bush's attitude is a refreshing change from the previous administration.
I must say that IS funny. LOL! But, you misspelled "Bulletin".
Every penny spent this fashion is a waste. Lead by example...if people can't figure out what's right for them, it's their own fault.
I see no historical evidence to support this claim.
If just a small percentage of blacks could be exposed to the idea that Republicans do NOT wake up every morning salivating over the idea of screwing minorities, it would make great progress. Maybe not for this election, but for elections 20 or 30 years from now.
You mean as the GOP has been trying to do since the 1960s, voting more for the Great Society than even the Dems did? Lets see that was 40 years ago, that huge black GOP base should be ripening by now.
Lets wake up from dream, or should I say delusion, of a great black awakening. The GOP should not continue to attempt to Out-Pander to the black community the Dems. They own that and it just makes the GOP look like sycophants and kiss ups, and as Ferris Beuler said "you just can't respect somebody who kisses your a$$." Let the disaffected Black voters continue to realize they don't get represented by the Dems and then they can wake themselves up. As it stands now the GOP needs to spend its money more wisely.
YES. It needs a post of it's own. Please. I want to fwd. it to some GOP State HQ and the BC'04 Campaign as well as others.
The best way would be for the Bush campaign to find the highest profile, coolest black Republican we can find, and have them do radio and TV commercials on behalf of President Bush. (Walter Williams?, Rod Paige?)
Blanket radio and BET, and yes, I do feel that could persuade many fence sitters (are there any?) to support GWB.
Couple that with ads showing how Kerry has rejected black folks, except of course, the servants he hired at his many mansions.
The ads should also outline the fact that 92-percent of GOP senators voted for Civil Rights as compared to 64-percent of Democrat senators.
Bottom line. We can't just abandon an entire segment of the population no matter how intransient they seem to be to the GOP message.
The GOP message doesn't have to be pandering. It can just be an honest statement on where the party stands on school choice, national security and other important issues.
At the very least, the concept that republicans aren't racist hatemongers is worth every penny it costs to spread that message.
If blacks voted for republicans in the same percentage as non-blacks, the republicans would win something like 75% of all national elections. There's no reason to simply give the Democrats an enormous voting bloc without making them work for it.
You have to be taught to hate republicans. You have to be carefully taught.
I've found four or five AA leaders who have stood up to JJ in recent national news...am trying to locate their email or snall addresses to send copies to them....WIll post it on its own thread.

Yes but you were going to vote for him anyway. This thread is about black outreach. Lets see how he does with that demographic. I think it is defeatest to write off that bid a chunk of the population.
