We need people like her running for seats in those Detroit districts. I don’t like playing the race card but its all the Detroit deck has right now.

You do realize that liberal blacks hate black conservatives even worse than they hate white conservatives, don't you? Black conservatives can't get elected in majority black cities, my friend.

Problem is, even if we ran well-funded and impeccably qualified candidates in those districts, we’d be lucky if they received more than a few % higher than a usual, non-descript, non-funded GOP candidate.

I’m reminded of about a decade or so ago, a White man managed to get the Democrat nomination for Mayor of Gary and a Black the GOP nod. The White guy won in a massive landslide. It’s the party label that remains the biggest impediment to a breakthrough.
