HOW TO REACH ME: Gmoore@Stargop.org
Geoff Moore is a friend of mine and fellow precinct captain in a suburb mostly white, Indian and Hispanic that has at least 3 very conservative Black precinct captains, which is way out of proportion to their numbers in the suburbs.
Geoff will probably be a delegate to the National Convention Representing the Schaumburg part of Henry Hyde's district.
I estimate 35-40% of Blacks voted for Dubya in 2000 in my precincts in the Blackest corner of the suburb.
That is not as good as the 100% of Hispanics in my corner that voted for Dubya but a lot better than my estimate that only 10% of divorced/single white women voted for Dubya.
Winning is going to be in the trenches where Geoff is ... and where I sometimes am when not in my other personality.
The Black guy lives in a white (and Indian) area and so works that area door to door. I, a white guy, live in an area more heavily Black.
We don't pander to just one group. We target everyone.
Black conservative pingIf you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
I, too, have been asked by Fran to submit bio for publication. I'll try to get it out before I leave town on Thursday.
Fran asked me to submit right at the time that I was changing personalities. I asked to wait until I figure out who I am.
