Now that we're up on election time, what do you thing about Black conservatives? Are they the next big thing in Black politics, or do you thing they are misguided? If you consider yourself conservative, do you feel pressured to hide your political beliefs to be accepted? Is there a future for Blacks in the Republican Party?
Just trying to spark some discussion... Holla!

Then it occured to me that the modern day Republican Party was founded in 1864 by Whigs, Democrats and Free Soil party members who were concerned about influencing the national infrastructure to focus on concerns of citizens in the midwest and further. They also opposed slavery and supported higher education. So then the Republican party could not have been created to enforce the subjugation of black people. Technically, black people as a community are very conservative, thus our blind allegiance to a Democratic party which struggles to define itself, baffles me. They take your vote for granted. Register independent and let them jokers come to you to campaign. BTW, the Dem's posterboy has stuck his foot in his mouth again: http://www.theconservativevoice.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=3009 Howard Dean :?
