Nate, are you aware that a black man is probably the most popular sit-in host when Rush Limbaugh is on vacation? Walter Williams is beloved by thousands upon thousands of talk radio conservatives -- when he's on the air, my dad calls me with only two words that we both treasure: Walter's on!"

Larry Elder, the should-be-sainted Thomas Sowell, Deroy Murdoch, Ken Hamblin, and Star Parker are just a few conservatives that come immediately to my mind who are so popular among conservatives, and their opinions are all the more poignant because of their experiences as black Americans. Come home and find real welcome to YOUR party, Nate! It's called the Republican party. The racism is truly on the left, not here. Conservatives care about IDEAS, not race.

Oooh, Thomas Sowell. He is without one of the most brilliant minds in this country.

Another Conservative Afro-American Champion ( yes, I call them Champions, because of their courage, and willingness to make a stand against what is popular, and to stand up for what is RIGHT ) is Jessy Peterson.
Nate, we hope that you will find that we are not as bad and difficult as the Dem's/libs/MSM make us out to be.
Did you know that the Republican party was conceived and born out of the Antislavery movement before the civil war ?
And it was the Republicans after the civil war who were the ones who were trying to protect the black people in the South.
Is was the Democrats who were the ones, who were pushing for reintroducing slavery back after the Civil war.
It was the Democrats who maimed, killed, harassed the blacks , and killed, maimed, harassed blacks who wanted to run for public office after the civil war.
It was a Republican President ( Eisenhower ) who sent in federal troops to protect those 9 black students in the 1950s, were a Democrat Governor sent in his own State Guard troops to prevent those students from going to school.
I am not saying that the Republican party is perfect, there are many things that we should be ashamed of, or apologize for, and ( I speak for myself ) yes, we dropped the ball concerning afro Americans in the passed, but, I doubt it, if the Republicans ever " USED " the blacks, or even white people.
This is how I look at my fellow Republicans/Conservatives and I, most of us in our lives have come to a ( Individual choice /conclusion/decision ) in what we believe, and our values.
The Democrats " TELL YOU WHAT TO BELIEVE " and so does the MSN, they spoon feed you in what " THEY WANT YOU TO THINK AND BELIEVE " .
I admit, I once was a Democrat ( while living under my parents house ) thats all I knew, was what my father and mother said, and believed and voted for.
But, one day ? I " SAW THE LIGHT " I became enlightened, and became FREE !!!! I am able, as a Republican/Conservative ( this is the true American Spirit ) to think on my own ( without someone telling what I am suppose to believe and think ) make my own conclusions.
Nate, I challenge you to do your own study, to study were the Republican Party was born from, and what we believe and value, and I challenge you to come to YOUR own conclusions, and not what the Democrats/Liberals/MSM want you to think or believe.
We hope that you do get to sit down ( or even go fishing ) with Seal Hannity, or even Rush Limbaugh, I believe if you were to sit down with them, and have a gentleman's claim discussion, you would be amazed in how much Black people, and white people, and Latinos, and all races have in common.
Nate, a leader is someone who leads, who takes the initiative, someone who does the right thing, despite of what the popular thinking or prevailing thinking is at that moment, please ? take the initiative to make a appointment to sit down with Seal Hannity ( or RUSH LIMBAUGH ) and even just for the sake of it, in a claim, gentlemans way, explain your frustrations with them, have a open stimulating talk with them.
