V.I. Lenin said:Are you saying that the republican party today holds the same ideals as the republican party in Lincoln's time? And are you honestly saying that the majority of republicans respect and treat African American's equally?
Navy Pride said:Dean is the best thing to happen to the Republican Party in many a year.......
V.I. Lenin said:Not a solid journalistic report, but when I moved to the USA it was to a small town in upstate NY, and it was a very largely republican community, and we had very few African American's, and those we had were made fun of, yelled at, and teased by people who largely claimed to be republican.
As for the first question, no I can't, thats why I asked.
Surenderer said:Then why is it that I only see Republicans in our (African American) community in election years?......I saw Bush in Black churches twice....during both election campaigns of his and not before or since...that being said though I dont think that this is a race issue....it's a poverty one
Here it is and it is disgraceful and a blantant political attempt to split the country apart for the political gain of the Democrat party.Trajan Octavian Titus said:He actually came out and said that race played a roll in the Katrina disaster, I'll look for the exact quote and post it. Sorry dixiecrats the Reps have been on the right side of the race issue since Lincoln. It's called the truth, look into it.

Dean Denounces Timing of Rehnquist’s Death
September 9, 2005
Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean complained that the timing of Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist’s death was “highly suspicious.”
“Last year, Reagan conveniently died just in time to take attention away from Bush’s failed Iraq War and boost Bush’s chances for reelection,” said Dean. “Now, in the midst of Bush’s failure to prevent the extermination of downtrodden, minority New Orleans’ hurricane victims, Justice Rehnquist conveniently dies. Am I the only one who sees a pattern here?”
Dean charged that presidential advisor Karl Rove was masterminding these strategically timed deaths of conservative icons. “Not only do these deaths distract Americans from Bush’s blunders, they also serve as a cover for Rove’s nefarious scheme to suppress Democratic voter turnout in next year’s Congressional elections by evacuating New Orleans hurricane victims to other states,” claimed Dean.
Dean demanded that the Democratic Party be authorized to cast absentee ballots on behalf of the evacuated hurricane victims. “These dispersed people are mostly poor and uneducated,” said Dean. “Many are on welfare. Others are driven to a life of crime. These are the people the Democratic Party represents. Who could object to us casting their ballots for them during this time of turmoil?”
Dean said he will be working with key members of Congress to draft enabling legislation.
Ah, so you are saying that African-Americans are so stupid that they go by what Democrats say for them rather than what repugnicans do against them?SixStringHero said:Because the Democrats like to play the race card at every chance they get and it's sickening.
You need to get a clue. There is no "extreme left" in the US. "Left" in the rest of the world means talking about abolishing property right, of complete equalization of wealth etc.Really though, No party today is representative of what they used to be. Both parties are extreme right or extreme left.
Ah, yes. AZConservative. And Semmen's "semi-news"? The guy who write in the conservative militia sources? The conservative version of "The Onion." Good joke. Funny political comedy of satire. So?Navy Pride said:Dean opens mouth inserts foot again:

OH, MY GOD!!!! You thought it was REAL, didn't you? Oh, I feel so sorry for you.
Are you really this stupid? Even you are not this dumb, right? This is a made up story, a joke. How can anyone be so damn dumb?Navy Pride said:Dean opens mouth inserts foot again:

I have to say that for anyone to be so immensely stupid as to believe that column was real and not a joke is beyond the realm of reality.steen said:Ah, yes. AZConservative. And Semmen's "semi-news"?

Oh really? How many, approximately? According to the Washington Post only 12% of American Blacks voted for Bush. They say that American Blacks are THE MOST LOYAL of all Democratic voters. So please, please enlighten us and show us that, using your words, "There are many African-American Republicans." C'mon, prove it...I think you're very, very wrong:SixStringHero said:There are many African-American Republicans as well.
Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/01/10/AR2005033100897_pf.htmlOne reason that Russert and others reacted with such surprise may have been that White's comments didn't fit the political stereotype of African Americans, a group that is more loyal in its support of Democratic candidates than any other demographic group. ...
In the deep south states, the divide was even more pronounced. In Alabama, for instance, 80 percent of whites voted for Bush while 91 percent of blacks went for Kerry. The divide was less pronounced nationally, with 58 percent of whites voting for Bush and 88 percent of blacks voting Kerry.
I agree with Dean 100%! I believe that had this same event occurred in a mostly White community Bush and his cronies would have had a swifter and more rapid response.Stinger said:Here it is and it is disgraceful and a blantant political attempt to split the country apart for the political gain of the Democrat party.
[FONT=Courier, Times New Roman] Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2005 11:00 p.m. EDT[/FONT] [FONT=Courier, Times New Roman]Dean: Race Played a Role in Katrina Deaths[/FONT]
[FONT=Courier, Times New Roman] Race was a factor in the death toll from Hurricane Katrina, Howard Dean told members of the National Baptist Convention of America on Wednesday at the group's annual meeting. [/FONT]
Dean, chairman of the democratic party, made the comments to the Baptists' Political and Social Justice Commission. The Baptist Convention, with an estimated 3.5 million members, is one of the largest black religious groups in the country. "We must ... come to terms with the ugly truth that skin color, age and economics played a deadly role in who survived and who did not," Dean said.
