What would be your method of approaching a particular minority group, without promising them something special?

Simple. Treat us like you would yourselves.

I thought we were talking politics here. Is there a particular message that you would like to hear from, for instance, the GOP? Or that you think would be useful in persuading blacks of whatever it is that they need to be persuaded of.

I didn't mean "how should I approach a black person on the street, or in the elevator." It was my black friends who long ago pointed out that I was overly nice to other black people [obviously in an effort to counter the leftist/marxist racial division techniques which are so pervasive.] One of them said something like, "dude, why don't you just save time and wear a t-shirt that says 'Hello, I am not a racist'?"

At the risk of ruffling feathers here, the recent voting pattern of most blacks does not suggest that this is a message that appeals to them. I'm mean, I think we are all down with "content of their character" over "color of their skin", but the reality is that that particular message doesn't seem to resonate right now.

If there was an onslaught of black conservatives and pubbies then certain people on FR would not be able to makes certain comments about black people... I think some folks like to talk about the woes of blacks. Wonder what else they'd have to in life if they didn't have blacks to pick on?
