The dems support of the homosexual marriage issue may be the issue that forces truly Christian blacks to vote for GW or sit home because they can't vote for hanoi john.

I'm waiting for Cynthia Tucker to write a similar column.

Don't hold your breath while you wait.

----As a lifelong independent, and the daughter of a die-hard Democrat, I may never bring myself to punch a Republican ballot.----

I used to be a registered Independent, even as I swore up and down that I wouldn't vote for a Democrat for dog-catcher. I finally decided to start being honest with myself and registered GOP.

The Republican Party is the party of Abraham Lincoln. That in itself should be enough for any thoughtful black American to affiliate with it. Research into the voting and civil rights acts of the 1960s will reveal that it was prominent democrats who opposed such legislation. Again, thoughtful black Americans need to consider that issue.

To paraphrase: If you're not a liberal (read: democrat) at age 30 or younger, you're heartless. If you're not a conservative (read: republican) after age 30, you're brainless.

"and yet says at the closing that because her daddy voted Democrat she must do so, too"


She needs to be asking why her daddy was voting blindly for a party that supported racism

So a "lifeling independent" may "never bring myself to punch a Republican ballot"?

"Independent" from what? An open mind?

Values are values. There are plenty of white democrats that vote for dems 'cause grandpa did as well. I have similar talks with whites who espouse conservative Christian viewpoints, I just smile and tell them they are really Republican, they just don't know it yet. The only issue holding one back was Enron and Haliburton???? -what about Global Crossings I always ask. They never heard of it.......so I start with that.......

Cracks in the dam. If even a significant minority of black voters begin to accept the possibility of voting GOP when th situation calls for it, the Democratic party is going to find itself scrambling to hold together a majority in many elections. Can you imagine if inner city Blacks shift even 10-20% Republican? Some major city power structures could collapse...and that's a good thing for all of us.

I wonder how many more would leave the democrap party if they knew that Lyndon Johnson passed the biggest welfare increase with the comment "we'll have these niggers voting democrat for years"


DONT FLAME ME - THAT IS AN ACTUAL QUOTE

Listen to Star Parker, listen to Jesse Lee Peterson, listen to John McWhorter, listen to Ward Connerly, listen to Mychal Massie. These are just the tip of the iceberg in a growing number of blacks who see the worst possible form of racism..........that being the Democratic party. It did my heart good to see black delegates at the Republican convention. One was from my hometown.......a teacher who switched parties after realizing the Dems weren't doing anything but paying lip-service to blacks everywhere. I have said and will continue to believe that the Republican party is the REAL home to blacks in this country.

RUN FOR PRESIDENT IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, and why not the last Democrat to be President, was a sexual predator.

I don't know that black voters have that many disagreements with conservative Republicans any more than most other Democrats do.

Keep in mind that many successful Blacks have government jobs, and many unsuccessful Blacks depend on government largesse for their income. It's a bad combination.

The phrases "when hell freezes over" and "snowball's chance in hell" pop up in my mind. She is....well, never mind, you get my point.

The election isn't really about voting FOR John "Effing" Kerry or his running mate, the Breck Girl.
It's all about hating Bush and Cheney. (Most folks don't even know what Halliburton sp.? does in the oil business. They just hate it because.)
So...issues don't really matter, just defeating Bush does.

Fiscal liberals, social conservatives; the exact opposite of GOP "moderates"
