How Can A 'Fellow Black American' Oppose Obama?

by Larry Elder - July 26th, 2008 - World Net Daily

Speaking of helping the "underprivileged," I'd suggest you read a book called "Who Really Cares," by Arthur C. Brooks. A non-Republican professor raised by Democrats, he examined the charitable spending habits of Democrats and Republicans. The results surprised him. Brooks found that Republicans give far more of their money and time for charitable purposes than do Democrats. And the giving is not confined to their churches or other houses of worship. This, by the way, has nothing to do with income. Poor Republicans give more than poor Democrats.

In this article Larry Elder has compiled a compelling list of the reasons that blacks should come back to the Republican Party. On almost every critical issue of the day, blacks have more in common, and more reason to agree with Republicans than with Democrats. It is sad that so many black leaders have persuaded black voters that continuing their dependence on Democrats is a necessity to survive. It really is all about black leaders getting rich, as so many of them have, delivering the black vote to a party that never actually helps them.
