Laugh at me if you will, but I strongly believe to right conservative could very well flip a sizable part of the black vote.
I agree. As someone who has taken it upon myself to reach out to the inner city people just to talk and listen, I can tell you that the sand is definitely shifting.
Sizable may be a stretch, but I agree there are many fiscally conservative middle class blacks who could vote for the right conservative...even 10 to 15 % swing would be a death blow to any democrat running...
Chris Christie probably got a large percent of the black vote in NJ...
He's not my style of "conservative" but he proves it could be done...
Chris Christie got 21% of the black vote and 51 % of the Hispanic vote...in the NJ election...

Color me sceptical, but, the black vote will vote skin color, especially, if it is an African-un-American.
Sizable ? I’ll go with that. I’ll not hold my breath for a quick conversion, but who knows. It will happen.
Only if said conservative is willing to speak frankly instead of maintaining the PC meme which makes such openness "racist".
