Walter Fields, a Democratic political consultant, said blacks are being shut out because Democrats have determined they risk losing no political support in the black community if they exclude blacks from decisions.

Blacks now have no leverage as a voting group because they consistently support Democrats and give no sign of changing, Fields said.

Is anyone paying attention here? Yes, Mr. Fields, the pressure cooker is about to explode! Either get out of the way, or get knocked the hell out.

Ten to twenty percent. That's all I seek. Ten to twenty percent. I have no desire to try to convince all American blacks at one time. It's unnecessary. Ten to twenty percent of the black vote for the Pubs and the RATS can kiss power goodbye forever.

If we can convince this ten to twenty percent, more will follow later. In order for the RATS to become competitive again (and here's the most beautiful part), they will have to move to the right.

Ahh... I love the smell of vaporizing RATS in the morning!

I was struck by the same two sentences. This is an object lesson in how to disaffect a constituency and provide an opening for the other Party.

The day is coming, my friend, when the RNC doesn't see this as an opportunity to look in the wrong end of a gift horse.

Put it another way:

If we can get the Black vote to Reagan numbers, the Dems are toast.

And remeber the benefit of a changed vote: 10% less for the Democraps, 10% more for the Republicans makes a difference in the vote tally of 20%. That change would be equivalent to an earthquake that would register ~15 on the Richter scale!

Some Republicans have gotten that much Black support and even more. All depends on what kind of Pubbie they are. Usually, they have to put goodies in the hands of the right Blacks (media, social service agencies, certain community leaders).
