The NAACP held a forum/convention yesterday for all of the presidential candidates, Democrat and Republican. All of the Democrat candidates showed up, only one Republican did.

Because they are RACIST.
And thats coming from a white guy.
Any black republicans out there? If so what the Hell are you thinking?

Because most black people wouldn't vote for any of them regardless.
EDIT: vistavan-- are you another racist white liberal who thinks blacks should all be pigeon-holed into one political party? if so, i feel sorry for your ignorance.
If you are a black liberal, AGAIN, i feel sorry for your ignorance.

Because the Republicans know most African Americans will not vote for them anyways, so why even try.

Because unfortunately the NAACP doesn't really stand for much or do much these days. They have been eclipsed by other groups such as ACORN.

They'd rather let the Democrats do the pandering.
