In a sane world, there would be congratulations all over the media. But because these elected officials are Republican, the media chooses to make them invisible.
They disprove the media myth that Republicans are all racist.
Middle class working black families might finally have someone on thier side to help us all with the fight on over taxation.

I heard Tim Scott speak at a Tea Party rally in Georgetown, SC last April, prior to the primary. I knew then he was the real deal conservative. It’s ironic he won the seat held from 1941 to 1970 by Mendel Rivers, an ardent segregationist and Democrat.
I really like the idea of black conservatives. You should be able to get 1) Conservatives and 2) Blacks (at least a few of them).
Find conservative black famous athletes.
Even though it would never happen (hell he would refuse to run) I still think Thomas Sowell should be president. Our country would be much less of a mess with him running the show.
He said that he didn't sell himself as a black American but as an American.
Blacks make up 12% of the population and they will continue to vote for the rats. I seriously doubt if there is a "great awakening" in this voting block.
Allen West for President!
TT
I am proud to say that our new Congressman is a solid, unapologetic Conservative.
And he happens to be black.
Can’t wait to see if the CBC will welcome him and Col. West (R-FL) into their little group when they show up in DC.
Note to media:
I don’t give a rats behind what the color of the candidate is, just as long as he is a conservative, not a Marxist/Communist like “The Oblivious One”!
I have been critical of the notion of a Black “conservative” before, and since both Scott and West were elected by Whites I still stand on that position. I would love to be wrong, but I just don’t see any Black conservatives.
Florida Lt governor as well, Jennifer Carroll?
When I was in the Philippines, I was quite surprised to see their elementary schools teaching about some great self-made men in American History. Among them ... George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and .... ( I was quite surprised to see this man’s name )... Booker T. Washington!
Do our schools ever teach the story of Booker T. Washington anymore? Just wonder...
