But furthermore, read what I write in #40. This can actually be used as part of a long term strategy to reduce taxes for everyone and get African-Americans to vote for the Republican party.

No, it won't. All it will do is make Obama look reasonable and moderate to swing voters. And race-based discrimination is not something a conservative should ever support.

But don't you get it? The whole point of this is to use racial equality argument to get tax relief for everyone and turn the argument on the Dems. First get the tax relief for one group, then after a while point out how unfair it is only one group gets it, and you're faced with eitehr raising taxes for the group that gets it, or give the same relief to everyone.

And the Dems will be stuck with holding the position of wanting to raise it for the one group that historically are most blindly loyal to them, and whose defection would be disasterous for them. So they either lose the black vote in large chunks, or be forced to agree to the tax relief.
