If Blacks Want Status Quo, They Should Continue Voting For Dems

Many black children across America are stuck in failing schools and do not have the economic means to acquire a private school education. Vouchers, which blacks highly support, is one answer to that dilemma. Blacks do not oppose public schools, but cannot accept their continued failure. Democrats are opposed to vouchers and this is not helping our kids when they need it most— which is now!

Mr. Raines' arguments fail to make a case for why most blacks should continue to vote Democrat and accept the same old, same old, for anther 50 years.

Interesting article. I still remain confused at the willingness of so many blacks to insist that being Republican makes you a racist but being a democrat means you are not. It has been my experience that only about 1 in 50 blacks in America are aware that Everrett Dirksen (a Republican) wrote the 1964 Civil Rights Bill and that more Republicans than Democrats voted for it. Maybe this is changing. We are not interested in getting liberal blacks to vote Republican. However it does not seem reasonable for conservative blacks to continue to vote for a party that is opposed to everything they believe. We welcome conservative blacks to the party of the American Dream.
