Biden repeats promise to Black Americans: ‘I have your back’
The Hill ^ | 03/10/2024 | Sarah Fortinsky

Posted on 03/10/2024 6:00:34 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

President Biden in a Saturday interview doubled down on his commitment to stand by Black Americans and pointed to his record of support for Black-owned small businesses and to strong job creation numbers.

“You promised Black America that … you’d have our back. Do you feel you have our backs?” MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart asked Biden in a clip that aired Sunday.

“I have your back, as much as any president has in American history since Lyndon Johnson,” Biden responded. “Black wealth has increased by 60 percent, across the board.”

Since Lyndon Johnson?? He destroyed the nuclear black family.

That is conservative nonsense (from their perspective) that no one on their side believes, sort of like we see their "Illegals built this country" statement.

Hang in there with me….

A good friend whose grandparents came from Greece said his grandmother almost stopped taking to him, because he said at the dinner table that he was voting for Bush and not Dukakis. He relayed that in that community, it was like being a war criminal if you didn’t vote for Dukakis. It didn’t matter that the Greeks were proud Americans - he said his “Yaya” cried when PBS played the Star Spangled Banner before signing off like they did back in the day - it became a tribal thing in 1988.

Perhaps it is the same in other groups…the youths follow their elders - until they don’t.

Recall, Trump pardoned a lot of black dudes on his way out. He may have planted the seeds for, like with Dukakis and some Greeks, black youths to ditch the party of their parents.

But what if there is something rotten in City Voting Machines? There was a poll that rlmorel posted yesterday, from 2020 showing that the same general percentage of Republicans are concerned about “Election fraud” as were Dems about “Voter suppression.”

Broadly, the only difference here is terminology.

But here’s something to ponder: what if for DECADES the voting machines in “black districts” were rigged?

Does ANYONE find it odd that despite Trump’s massive appeal across ALL races, that the percentage of city vote going to the Dem is like a global constant?

Maybe the Dems are worried that snooping Republicans in search of quashing Election Fraud may find that their “concern” about Voter Suppression, is that Repubs find out that DEMS have been the ones suppressing the “black” vote.

And Biden is going hell-bent to leather to replace blacks in the workforce with illegals.

“I know this doesn’t mean much but 100 years ago Harlem NY was one of the nicest neighborhoods in America. Was mostly black then but nobody walked the streets in fear.”
My dad grew up in NYC in the 1930’s. He said that Harlem was where most of the good entertainment and restaurants were.

Nope. It's fear of doing something different/FOTU; fear of the unknown.

GEt used to doing something the same way for many years, and you get used to doing it and fear changing.

I have the same situation in my family. My grandmother and mother all voted democrat, and my sisters and brother did the same. When I queried them on the issues, they sounded as republican as I am, and in a couple of issues, even more republican than me. They just could not get themselves to vote as they think, and loyalty to their elders and to the democratic party, mattered more to them.

It's dumb loyalty. If people dropped their dumb loyalty, and voted for what benefits them better/more, democrats would not stand a chance.

“Since Lyndon Johnson?? He destroyed the nuclear black family. 🙄”

That was my first thought.

LBJ and “the great society” was flat out evil.

I have your back....and plan to stab it as all demoKKKrats do to blacks...

This equating modern Democrats with the KKK is silly.

Democrats have spent billions -- trillions? -- in special programs to aid blacks over the past 60 years.

Democrats have also turned a blind eye to black crime, even as black criminals brutalize and murder white and Asian victims.

You might say this isn't helping blacks, but it certainly isn't because the Democrats are "KKK racists." If anything, they're anti-white racists.

Democratic policies are intended to destroy whites. Blacks are merely collateral damage.

"Biden repeats promise to Black Americans: ‘I have your back’"

The obama version of that was, "Your ass is mine."

Of course Democrats have the backs of black people, it’s where you have to stand to slip the shiv in properly.

Johnson was right though, he did have them vote Democratic for the next 200 years.
