Evangelicals are to the GOPe as blacks are to the DEMs.
They’re catered to, then forgotten once the candidate is elected.
I’m off the plantation, people. I’m sick and tired of being lied to by my candidates.
I may just go crazy and write in the names of good people for congress instead of settling for another stupid politician/lawyer.
I thought it was very interesting. He also thought that Trump did have something to say to the black community, and that they would listen to him.

This is why Cruz’s one note social conservatism campaign is failing. We’ve heard this primary season red meat issues story before. This country is rotten and loves abortion. No single POTUS is going to change that fact yet the career politicans all promise us the moon to get elected. This is a generational battle and if Cruz was genuine he would say that.
Me too, but how do you know Trump isn't lying just as well? I think we all want America to be great again. Have you bothered to think about what that means? What made us great and how did we lose it?
From John Stormer, Death of a Nation, 1968
"A French philosopher who visited our shores when America was a new young nation left a similar warning. Alexis De Tocqueville said he came to the United States to learn what magic quality enabled a handful of people to defeat the mighty British Empire twice in 35 years. He looked for the greatness of America in her harbors and rivers, her fertile fields and boundless forests, mines and other natural resources. He studied America's schools, her Congress, and her matchless Constitution without comprehending America's power. Not, until he went into the churches of America and heard pulpits "aflame with righteousness" did he understand the secret of her genius and strength. De Tocqueville returned to France and wrote: "America is great because America is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great." (emphasis mine)
I don't think Trump understands where our greatness came from. Please tell me why you think he can lead us back there again.
