I never thought that there were more than a handful of blacks in Alaska, but I was told that black Americans comprise 10% of the population of Fairbanks.

[AuntB]

How many black people can there be in Alaska?

This is just so much BS. When they have nothing left, they pull the ol’ race card. You’d think people would wise up to this vicious method. Not yet, it looks like!

[Perdogg]

I am sure they will vote in Ohio.

[bahblahbah]

Keep the narrative alive!!!

[robtrml]

There goes the black vote, I bet over 90% of them will vote for Obama now.

[FlingWingFlyer]

All my life, I’ve felt “ignored” by Alaska’s minorities. You don’t hear me whining about it. These freeloaders need to get a job AND A LIFE!

[freebilly]

We be aggrieved....

[FormerACLUmember]

Palin married an Eskimo, for goodness sake.

Palin has the highest approval rating of all 50 USA Governors at 80%, including a 75% approval rating from Alaskan democrats.

Absolutely pathetic lies from the Ass. Press propaganda machine.

[alice_in_bubbaland]

AP go figure...... fair & balanced is not in their vocabulary.

[pallis]

Well then, this explains why Sarah only has an 85 percent approval rate.

[Proud2BeRight]

They are living a dream. Oh how I wish government would ignore us more. Get the socialist cockroaches out of my wallet.

[laconic]

Just who are these endlessly kvetching “minorities”? No mention of Gov. Palin’s husband, who is a Native American. Instead, we hear of constant carping by some aggrieved minister that the state doesn’t do enough for him; why doesn’t he do for himself and his community like the rest of us do? The real “minority” in Alaska is from those NOT in the 87 percent of Alaskans who approve of Governor Palin’s performance — won’t see THAT in the AP article, will we?

[realcleanguy]

The Race card. Wow, is it just me that sees Civil war coming? Have the Racist democrats started a war?

[Brown Deer]

Many of Palin's black constituents say they're disgusted with the campaign's racial overtones.

How many? There are less than 25,000 blacks living in Alaska. That is less than 13 out of 20,000 black persons living in this country.

[xtinct]

Blacks really need to get the chips off their shoulders.

They really need to stop thinking that they should have a personal experience with an elected official who is hopefully doing the job that the citizens hired them to do.

I've never had a personal experience with any elected official. I merely hope s/he would do the job I help to hire him/her to do... sheesh !!

Get off the cross... Somebody needs the wood, people !!!

[Popman]

What gives, P. Diddy told us there are no black people in Alaska

[MDformerDem]

Patterson says Palin is "really inciting a lot of African-Americans to get out and vote."

They were planning on staying home?

[WellyP]

NO ONE OWES ANYONE A JOB because of their race, religion or sex! If you have the better skills and do not get the job then they have a legitimate complaint.

[madison10]

In Alaska African-Americans are the minority of minorities. The Native Americans who are there are the ones that deserve any benefits of minority status. When one is the minority, one should not have the voice of the majority. (except of course, if one is ACORN, and cheats like h3ll.)

[PressurePoint]

they've been ignored in their efforts to get more minorities hired in her administration.

The best way to get people hired is to get people educated. That means putting away the books on socialism, activism, and the radical agenda. And picking up books on history, math, and science.
