I'd like to hear more; maybe I just don't understand. I do see blacks moving in Republican circles: Colin Powell, Condi Rice, Michael Steele. So obviously this is not what you mean. I think it's critical that the Republican party includes everyone who shares their values. What would you like to see?

What I mean, simply, is that the overwhelming number of blacks vote for Democrats. It's been that way since Franklin Roosevelt's time and I see little basis for hope that it will change.
