Blacks are abandoning the Democratic Party
The Washington Times ^ | 10-1-12 | E.W. Jackson

Posted on 10/02/2012 11:22:19 PM PDT by Slyfox

For more than 50 years, the black community has been the wholly owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party. That may be changing. In spite of the overwhelmingly liberal voting patterns of black voters, they are an essentially conservative community. Americans of African descent are more pro-life and pro-family than the average white voter and as conservative on social issues as any white evangelical.

The Democrats fostered the lie that the KKK was the work of republicans, for a generation. Not even Byrd in his Grand Kleagle outfit could clear that one up.

Maybe a black fascist king figure can shake them up.

Anybody writing on this knows that the reversal was made in 1936, so I don’t understand why they don’t just say, “since 1936” or for more than “75 years”.

Absolutely. In 1932, FDR actually lost 75%+ of the Black vote. In 1936 the situation was almost the exact opposite with FDR getting 72% of the Black vote.

...Which is all trumped by the "free sh!+" confiscated for them from Republican taxpayers by Democrat politicians, and handed over in exchange for votes. The Democrat party has successfuly created an entire subculture of government-addicted junkies for whom they, the Democrat politicians, supply the heroin.

A number of blacks are not happy with the stereotype frequented on the nightly news. Jackson is one of those right-thinking men who is trying to wake up his brethren that Obama is essentially a Pied Piper trying to lead people back to the plantation. I thought his video was quite powerful.

So what changed between 1932 and 1936 to flip the black vote?

Oh, he's got them alright. It's as simple as giving them a monthly check for drugs and a cheap, crappy cell phone.

I have heard for I don’t know how long that blacks are basically conservative but I have yet to see this conservatism expressed by actions. The Congressional Black Caucus is radically socialistic and morally bankrupt.

Don’t believe it. They could be shown a vid of Obama doing Putin on the White House front lawn and they’d still vote for him because he’s black.

So what changed between 1932 and 1936 to flip the black vote? FDR learned that he could buy votes. If you create a welfare state don't be surprised when people take advantage of the freebies

To the disappointment of liberals, Blacks voted for gay marriage ban in California. More % than Whites did.

That was more of a macho reaction than a moral revulsion.

Most likely things like the CCC (Conservation Corps) and other publically funded works programs (WPA) in urban and other areas where blacks had more opportunities for jobs.
