The democrat leaders take their votes for granted, thinking that black voters, for example, have nowhere else to go.

Some republicans have started doing the same (such as McCain), but I think they misunderstand us. We are different than the democrat sheep. I will jump ship if I think they've gone RINO, regardless of the poor alternatives.

"Now, 70 percent of the nation’s black children are born out of wedlock, black men comprise 70 percent of the nation’s prison population..."

OMG, those are two really bad stats. I know the first one is pretty accurate, is the second one also?

I heard that in Cali like 25% of the prison pop. are illegals. Is there another white man in prison in Cali besides Scott Peterson?

Fox News needs to fix their website. That was just painful trying to read the rest of Tony's essay.

Another teensy problem with the Dems strategy on the black vote is is the positive side of the evolving black demographic. Perhaps the best example was from former NBA star Chales Barkley. When he retired home he commented on his Republican affiliation. When Granny chastised Charles for joining the Republicans, in her words, "The party of the rich", Barkley responed calmly, " But Granma, I AM rich!"

For those not caught in the drug/gang inner city trap, the rate of moving on up, at least economically, among blacks is really booming. The Dems will still own this demographic for a while, but more and more successful black voters are pausing to wonder why they allow themselves to be taken for granted by a Party that actively works against the interests of the black winners in this economy.

Tony, this article made me think a little. How much am I, too, being led by the nose by the Legacy Media in finding fault with Dean the same way I should for Hillary's nearly-identical comments?

I've come to the conclusion that having Dean s te head of the DNC is a rat plot...they knew what he was like before he was appointed....Hillary will come in and save the party......

I'm still awaiting a party that says what I want to hear. More often than not, I have to trade off some things to get others that I consider more important.

Economic, intellectual and philosophical slavery is a detriment to any life.

Dean’s most recent controversial outburst — that Republicans are a bunch of Christian white guys

From Free Republic: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1056248/posts

Dean is finally being forced to admit that during his six terms as governor of Vermont he had never named a black or Hispanic to his Cabinet.

"It seems as though you discovered blacks and browns during this campaign," Sharpton chided the Park Avenue Vermonter
