FYI......PING
When the 33rd Annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) gets underway in Washington, D.C., this week, the new National Black Republicans Association (NBRA) will be there in force, marking the first time a black Republican group co-sponsored what is perennially billed as America's premier conservative event.
NewsMax caught up with the energetic chairperson of NBRA, Frances Rice, on the evening of Feb. 6 as she was gearing up for two days of special "grass-roots" training events for her group that precede the formal CPAC kickoff.
Yes, I remember when everyone was excited that 2004 would be the election year that a significnt percentage of the Jewish vote would go Republican. Once again, it didn't happen. Somehow, the majority of the Black and the Jewish vote remain die-hard Democrats.
MLK was a Republican ??? Holy Cow, I never learned that in school. I think I will donate.
Just went to the NBRA dinner and awards presentation at CPAC. It was great to hear positive and uplifting people who really get it. No victocrats in this crowd.
Darn, I missed some of the Grammys show..... OH WELL.

Good job! I'm so glad to see this happening.
Nice thread thank you for posting it!
Race notwithstanding, some of the people I would most like to vote for are Michael Steele, Ken Blackwell and Herman Cain. Unfortunately, none of them are in my state. And considering how uncivilized, uncooth, social reprehensible and vile the current liberal black leadership is (see this weeks funeral), there should be a huge groundswell for some new leadership that isn't consumed with hate and vengeance.
The more poverty dies within the African American community, the more there will be gains in the right...not necessarily the Gop. Their povery levels are going down, and will most likely meet white levels within a generation. They went from a 60% poverty rate (in the 60's) to a 20% poverty rate currently. Those are amazing numbers.
I hope for many more black conservatives, and I welcome them with open arms.
This is excellent news! I wish this organization well and am proud to have them represented among Republicans and Conservatives.
Bump for later read.
