Can African Americans ever overcome the "uncle-tom-trap" that Democrats beat them into submission with?

Question

"You sound like a cracker talking bout that free market self determinism shyyyt"

"Im a democrat, I have license to drop the n-bomb upon fellow n***ers like Condie or Colin who dare step outside the democratic party"

"Sure, by keeping an amazing 90% of the African vote, and slapping any house-n**er who dare stray with the powerful 'uncle-tom technique' we do deny African Americans half the potential power they could have, based on the fact that this is a two party system, and WE have kept them out on one half of the SYSTEM, but heck, our intentions are good. Its best African American suck on the motherly nipple of the Democrat party forever."

Answer 1

Not with a Republic president in office...

Answer 2

No and I find your question and name calling offensives. As people of color especially African American we have to do a lot of thing to conform to corporate America. They are the majority. I don't think you are being fair to Obama. The government, GOP, Clinton Machine, public America etc. etc is trying to knock him out of the box anyway they can, however dirty that might be! Look back on history how dirty the government etc. etc. was with Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. You don't know what he's going through. Obama every word and move is being scrutinise and so was his church. The church received death threats and was harass by the media especially Faux News. If you're black or a person of color, you know they are going to make him go through more hoops than Hillary or John because he's black. Plus, he and his family is probably dealing with death threats. I believe he will stand up for America. He has to get his foot in the door first. OBAMA '08

Answer 3

These anti-Liberal/Democractic Party rants kill me. Since 1980 (27 years and counting) the Reagan-esque form of Conservatism and the Republicans have been in power ('80-'88, Reagan---'88-'92, Bush--- '92-'00, Democractic President w/both houses of Congress under Conservative Republican control, and drug addict hypocrites like Rush Limbaugh were at an all-time high in popularity spewing the Conservative Dogma on televison and radio (Hell, he can almost single-handedly take credit for making liberal a bad word)----'00-'08 G.W.Bush and both houses of Congress, up until a couple of months ago). So how much LONGER are we deluded Uncle-Tom's supposed to give the Conservative/Republican point of view a try? Christians conservatives gave you guys your "moral center" a few years ago,(a gimmick that a lot of you guys are still holding on to) but Conservatives are now some of the most mean-sprited, no-apology elitists around. You speak of wanting government small and unobtrusive in your business ventures and money, but immediately contradict yourself and want government to regulate what people due in their private lives (abortions, gays in military/marriage, etc). Political debate with a hard line conservative is almost non existent, its almost like a college football game, you are on one side or the other with no middle ground. This has produced a level of animosity in politics that continues to drive people further and further apart.

African Amercians owe their loyalty to no one, and we are are not one communal mind, contrary to what many may think. We have differing opinions, values, and goals---and we vote accordingly. So again, I ask, after 25+ years of Conservative clap-trap, when will we actually see something from that side of the the aisle that has African-Americans interests at heart?

Answer 4

Great question.
I think you have it exactly right. Democrat supporters hate to see a black person making a success of themselves without the help of affirmitive action. This is because Democrat supporters are people who believe in playing politics on race to collect votes.

Answer 5

There are more & more Black Republicans that are trying to get blacks off the Democrat Plantation.
It's not just Blacks that the Democrats keep down & poor. They also own the poor white welfare people.
Blacks and Poor Whites have to escape the Democrat Plantation on their own. No one else can do it for them.
I escaped the Democrats. Anyone can!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

I guess if you ask Joe Biden, they should all emulate Barack Obama. He's a storybook. What book Biden is reading from remains a mystery, however.

Answer 7

Ummmm yep

Answer 8

Nowdays many minorities are coming over to the Republican party because many of them hold to conservative values and realize that Republican economics is the only way to really succeed on one's own

Answer 9

Imagine the howls of outrage from the left if Condi had been a Dem appointment and a Rep talked to her the way Boxer did...HOWLS of outrage.

Hypocrisy, thy name is liberal....

Answer 10

I don't understand this myself. The funny thing is, most of the black I know subscribe to conservative values (religious, patriotic, don't have abortions, etc).
