The treatment of Black Conservatives by left wing Blacks is real racism and hate crimes wrapped into the same terrible thing.
But, that's just it. They voted Republican. Therefore, they are not and cannot be 'black'. The Dims keep saying it. Clinton is 'black', Rice/Powell/Thomas are not 'black'.
Even here among FR's hardened veterans, this kind of weird racial hypocrisy coming from the Dim party hacks and NAACP is a bit of a shock.
I'm afraid I live in too pale an area to know any blacks currently. We just don't happen to have any. But we have a very nice Hispanic clan in town. All good Republicans, very nice folks. Assimilationist immigrants, not migrants. Good stock. We're lucky to have them. (And they're lucky to have us as a matter of fact.) It's a happy immigration story for all. Kind of like my own grandfather, a first-generation German immigrant.

You might look at the two preceding posts. Any black conservatives done any writing on just how far this no-black-can-vote-Republican thing has gone? I guess you're the first person I could think of.

Outspoken Black conservatives are among the bravest of our conservatives. That says it all for me.
