I'm not black, but I can tell you if I was, I would be livid and insulted by demographical targeting campaigns. Burger King does it. They specifically target blacks with their commercials.
The DNC does it too. Eventually the black community in the US is going to catch on that it's subtle racism in that they are being taken advantage of and coddled to with no real, genuine intrest in the well-being of the black community. They just want the vote.
Wake up and smell the coffee. The DNC doesn't care about the blacks. They only care about their own agenda's.
Ditto. The following post was at the end of a thread I started the other day (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1255165/posts). Quite interesting.

(quote)And a lot of them won't. Michigan has a same-sex marriage ban on the ballot, and many of Detroit's influential black clergymen support it. Very few will urge their congregations to vote Republican. But more than a few have already communicated a distinct lack of enthusiasm for the Democratic candidate.(unquote)

I was a guest in an 8000 member black church in Detroit today and the pastor urged everyone to vote republican. 300 Black ministers are supporting proposition 2, President Bush, and the republican canidates.
