And it almost always makes absolutely no difference because blacks overwhelmingly and consistently vote for Democrats. Forget "reaching out" - is that the same as dialoging? - with hyphenated Americans. I want candidates who don't feel a need to break the electorate into assorted special interest groups.
Some issues are more important to certain groups. I don't understand your hostility to the notion of talking about guns to a gun rights group and education to a PTA group. Many candidates only bring their message to predominantly white groups and predominantly white areas. They should bring their message to predominantly black areas and groups as well, and emphasize those parts of the message that are most germane to that audience.

This is the attitude that hurts Republicans. You are part of the problem. If most Republicans ignore blacks, it's gonna be damn hard for a Republican who doesn't ignore them to make people believe he's sincere. That attitude is poison and must be eradicated.
