You misread my post. I didn't imply that. I know that many blacks and hispanics are pro-life, but there are many in the GOP who don't want them in the party. Being a former Republican myself, I tried to help the party develop an outreach committee to help candidates and party members in reaching to non-white constituencies.
What I got was a no vote from the party leadership. They felt that reaching out to non-white voters would somehow 'dilute' the principles of the GOP.
Hence, I am a Democrat now. I can only respect a party that respects racial and ethnic diversity. The GOP doesn't quite measure up in that way. And given the Southern Dems are more econ and socially conservative-to-moderate, I'm right at home in the Democratic party here.
Of course all those open and tolerant leaders y'all keep electing send their own offspring to private, mostly lily white schools. And the racial huksters like Jesse Jackson shake down their own bros with protection rackets and vote engineering.
They keep voting into power people who create policies that drive away the tax base and, thus, jobs, while creating hand out services that create dependence and a few jobs for the well connected. Or do you have specific demo policies you can point to with pride. Specifics, not grand brushstrokes that paint a nice picture but don't add up when you read the fine print. Specifics. V's wife. (Oh, and it was republicans who passed the civil rights acts of the sixties, not southern democrats, like Mr. Gore's daddy, or that Klansmen, what was his name, right Byrd). And don't forget how many pro-lifers your party has the temerity to mount campaigns for! What inclusion. Hah. Joemomma, you got that right.
