I think Artur Davis is the black state legislator that switched from Dem to Rep and gave a really good speech at the RNC convention. I was hoping we would hear more from him. Perhaps he should try getting in to give those speeches?

Artur Davis was my congresscritter here in central Alabama. He represented a “manufactured” black district. He was a pleasant surprise, voted against Obamacare and is pro 2nd amendment. He was running in the dem primary for governor and was sandbagged by the dems for going off the reservation. They nominated a white guy, whom most of the blacks voted for. It's not a black thing, it's a dem thing. Davis really had a chance to be our first black governor. That's why he became a republican. He was more welcome.
