You are dreaming.
I don’t like it either, but it’s just a fact.
Even a decent black guy like Cain who is really black (unlike Obama), who really brought himself up from nothing to success (unlike Obama), cannot wean these people from their devotion to the dem party and especially Obama.

‘There are no words in the English language that can describe this condition.’
I beg to differ. I can think of two: terminal stupidity.

I do not want to believe that black people are that stupid. If they are then they deserve what they get. Dogs are obedient to their master - is that what a black person is, a dog? Can’t they think for themselves? Help me, I don’t want to be a racist but blind support for the rat party tells me that these people cannot think rationally. Obummer isn’t even black - he’s a muslim. WTF?

I guess Jews are just as stupid as blacks. A free and independent citizen of this country should not be tied to a particular political party. I must admist that I have voted democrat when necessary. I guess that is what an independent citizen should do.

"Obama could borrow David Duke`s Grand Wizard garb, give a speech on how he perceived black voters to be slaves on the democrat plantation, and still get more than 90% of the black vote."That's certainly borne out in these interviews.

Agreed with your post #59. This is just the latest attack on Cain “he won’t win over any blacks”. I’ve seen three articles almost identical in the last few days from different sources. Gee coincidence? And why now - I thought he was a frivolous candidate who had his 15 minutes and is fading fast? Cain would most definitely draw out a larger black vote than any other GOP candidate would. Sure not 50 percent of them but enough to make a huge difference. That is why the abject fear and hatred of this man

Madigan,
SORRY but we "people of color" are NOT buying any. "lexy" is all too typical of the leftist lunatics who are still in "the DIMocRATS party" - Scratch them & they bleed "lily white racism", as they tolerate black/brown/red/other minority people just exactly as long as we do what they want & vote like good little robots.
We intelligent "people of color" are NOT fooled & that is precisely why we are leaving the "DIMocRATS party" in droves to be independents & Tea Party members.
To all "persons of color": If you truly want to be judged by the content of your character rather than by the color of your skin, come join the Tea Party in your city, county or parish & help us take our country back from the BIGOTS/FOOLS/HATERS, who inhabit the lunatic leftist extreme of the "DIMocRATS Party".
Sincerely, Juan Ortega de la Cerda
Coordinator, BCTPP

To: sickoflibs
Cain was in Florida a few days ago in the Cuban community and even though he received a mixed reception, most were enthusiastic for him.
In the article I read, yes there were a few Democrats in the crowed who gave Cain a negative view, but that comes without saying with a Democrats.

" This is about the black vote and its inexplicable homogenousy. "
And just think ? over 50 years ago they mostly voted Republican, go figure ?
I don't know about this time, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice , shame on me.
The mask has been uncovered and it's going to be very very hard for the MSM and the Democrats to win over people this time around.
To: TitansAFC
" Were not getting more of the black vote, and its certainly not going to happen with Obama on the ballot. "
The Democrats are between a rock and a hard place this time around, should they keep their Goldenboy and lose ? or go with Hillary ?
Some may disagree with me, however ? I believe that if they were to go with Hillary, they would get more of the black vote that going with Obama this time around.
To: TitansAFC
Obama will retain 95%+ of the black vote no matter who we nominate. Only if you swallow the Washington Post hook, line, and sinker.
All a Republican nominee need do is reach the double digits of the black vote, and it's curtains for Zero's second term.

" Scratch them & they bleed "lily white racism" "
In other words ?
Translation : The Democrats, MSM, Liberals are only tolerant of black people as long as the blacks say " Yes'em Boss " and tow the Liberal agenda as long as they don't run off the liberal plantation.
The Democrats, MSM, Liberals love for black people is only skin deep, once one of them get's out of line, they are reading for the lynch mob.

Don’t you have anything positive to post about the candidate of your choice? I won’t get upset if your candidate supports illegals.

You are correct. Nominee Cain gets 20%+ black votes in 2012. Any one wanna bet if they think he will get no more than McCain did in 2008?
