Big article in my paper today about how ALL the black republicans are going to vote for Obama. They feel it is too historic an opportunity to have representation of a black male, that 100% feel that they are voting Obama. That includes long term Repubs like JC Watts and Colin Powell and long term black repub talk show hosts.
Makes me wonder if these are really true republicans or just calling themselves that for their betterment. Now that it's the choice of voting black or sticking to their so called principles, they go black.
( and never go back. Couldn't resist that
I'll say one think about the races, the blacks stick together at all costs.
Someone commits murder and is black, they say he's innocent.
Someone runs for President and has voted against your party his whole life, you vote for him anyway.
It's a consistent bunch. Black Power never really died, it's just been brewing under the surface for decades. In middle class white America, to vote because of skin color would be racist. For Powell, it's perfectly acceptable.
This double standard of Black Power and promoting Black gains at all cost is pathetic and is systematic of the problem of race relations. There will always be pride and prejudice since the minority will never let the issue drop or live a day of their lives without secretly planning revenge and rejoicing at every opportunity the majorities demise.
