There is no bigger threat to Liberals/Democrat Party than the viability of Black Conservative.
As far as the Dems are concerned, Black Conservatives are more dangerous than Osama bin Laden and they must be destroyed by any means necessary to maintain their plantation mentality stronghold on the minds of African Americans.
It is vital for them to maintain a “fiction” that all Republicans are racist and that Black Conservatives are a bunch of Uncle and Auntie Tom’s that are not really Black through and through.
This is a very powerful and corrosive “mind-lock” “group think” that has been effective for the past 50 years.
However, this monopoly has begun to crack, ironically, more rapidly since the election of President Barack Obama because Blacks have come to realize that he’s way outside the norm of the Black community’s Conservatism.
However, these Black Conservatives running for congress are tailored-made for the concerns of Black people because after half a century of giving the Democrats their blind support has not improved their quality of life in the Black community.
In fact, the interests of the Black community are in conflict with the Democrat Party insofar as Teachers Unions are concerned.
Teachers unions are vehemently opposed to Charter Schools despite the fact they’re providing a far better brand of education for children in our inner-cities who are locked in failing schools.
From Rave Wire:
The New York Times is reporting on a curious byproduct of Obama’s election: the ascendence of Black GOP hopefuls. According to the Times, at least 32 Black republicans are running for Congress this year, the largest number since Reconstruction.
“Party officials and the candidates themselves acknowledge that they still have uphill fights in both the primaries and the general elections, but they say that black Republicans are running with a confidence they have never had before. They credit the marriage of two factors: dissatisfaction with the Obama administration, and the proof, as provided by Mr. Obama, that blacks can get elected.
Princella Smith, who is running for an open seat in Arkansas, said she viewed the president’s victory through both the lens of history and partisan politics.
“Aside from the fact that I disagree fundamentally with all his views, I am proud of my nation for proving that we have the ability to do something like that,” Ms. Smith said.
…Many of the candidates are trying to align themselves with the Tea Partiers, insisting that the racial dynamics of that movement have been overblown.”
With midterm elections rapidly approaching in November, you can expect the country’s “post-racial” talk to pick up.
The GOP's courtship of Black folks isn't new. Party leaders have openly advocated for recruiting younger members of color.
