I was watching BET Nightly News and A black woman was like 'Im voting democrat because that is what 'we' [black people] do.......... I'm saying to myself, does she even know any of the issues that are going on?? So this leads me to my question........... Do Black People Vote Democrat just because it is 'the thing to do'?.....

Newsflash: Conservative or Republican ideology does NOT fall in line with the agenda that the Bush administration promotes. Republican mantras: Small government, states rights, ****, individual responsibility, fiscal responsibility, tax cutting, strong defense, and keeping out of individuals lives Bush mantras: Huge Government, Lots of social programs, reckless spending, strong OFFENSE, intruding in others lives (Patriot Act), he's woefully quiet on ****

Yea I try to be optimistic, but I see firsthand everyday how black folks (please some people in my family) exploit programs given to them by the government just so they won't have to do sh*t....

yes i think so .. some blacks have simple answers why.. like the replublicans are for the rich and democrats are for the "poor" and blah blah.. but normally blacks dont even pay any attention the details of a pres as long as they are democrat

.....Yea, dont get me wrong, white people take advantage of the gov't too---but we as African Americans should set the bar of class. Black people should show white people[gov't] that we can do for ourselves and we dont need them....but at the same time without becoming a self-contained nation.....I liked in 60's [like I was there :roll: ]when there were a surplus of black shops and businesses....now it seem sthat the black people on give money to the other peoples businesses.....The only strong black business left is the black barbershop....but dont get me started preaching.....
