I guess they'll get a few hundred local DC skells to march in a circle and the media will claim it's a million people. What a load of malarkey.

You're not alone. The Secretary of State in Ohio is a conservative from Cincinnati named Ken Blackwell. Following the end of Gov. Taft's almost certain next term Ken will likely be the Republican nominee to replace him.

Yes, and where the state of the art medical treatment is avaliable, regardless of your ability to pay. (sarcasm)

There are many more black conservatives than those two. In fact, Professor Walter Williams and JJ Johnson, publisher of Sierra Times make Watts and Keyes look like liberals.

Or, perhaps they will do what was done during the Bush/Gore standoff at the Supreme Court: The Rev. Jesse will take funds that he extorted from corporations, hire several dozen buses and bring people in from up and down the East Coast corridor to "protest," providing them with free beer and barbeque as bait. Disgusting. I plan to be in another time zone when that thing happens. Massive panhandling by professional losers.

I assume that in their strive to assign the blame fairly, they will be asking reparations from Africa and Great Britain as well. You know, those guys who were doing it long before America was? smirk.

As a SLAV and a namesake for the word slave. I call upon all Slavs to march all over the world wherever we may be found to demand reparations immediately and our share.

Especially from black people who until the 15th century were saved from enslavement due to the abundance of Slavic slaves on the market. Having thus benefited from slavic slavery, we demand a cut of whatever they get from the US government.

Reparations?

Ok, but first we have to deduct any and all welfare payments made over the years, and then, if the outcome is NEGATIVE, you owe the US government (read 'the REST of the TAXPAYERS'), instead of the other way around.....

Actually it's closer to 65%, if not 60%. There are a lot (well, more than people think) of Hispanics here. And a large portion of the black 30-40 years olds have left for PG.

Considering that black (was I supposed to capitalize that?) participation in elections is very low in certain sections, large turnout is not to be expected. This whole statehod/reparations thing is media balderdash.

Thanks for the names of some others. I will be looking up info on these guys. I went to the Project 21 (which is mentioned in the article) website and I swear it was like I was fish that had been on land and dived into a nice CLEAR pool of water. I think I've found my home! Besides FreeRepublic that is! ;-)

We witnessed a hilarious run-in between our pastor's wife and a friend of ours. Our pastor and his wife are black, and he is the salt of the earth, but she's kinda liberal. We have a white friend who was born and raised in South Africa. She told the minister's wife (born here in the US) that only people who were actually from Africa could rightfully call themselves "African-American". The pastor's wife was apoplectic! It was a funny thing to watch. Liberals can't handle the truth.

Sometimes I feel like me, JC Watts and Allen Keyes are the only conservative thinking blacks around.

Heck, I've taken a fair share of heat for being a white conservative, at various times and places. I can't imagine what it must be like for you guys. Stay tough, and cheers.
