“The Republican Party today is first and foremost a political entity dominated by white Americans. Eighty-nine percent of rank-and-file Republicans are non-Hispanic whites, leaving just 5% who are Hispanic (of any race), 2% who are black, and 4% of other races.” — Frank Newport, GALLUP, “Republican Base Heavily White, Conservative, Religious”​

At the National Black Republican's website you can learn about Obama's Blind Spot on Race and Character (and that of the Democratic Party), in an article by Francis Rice - a lawyer and retired Army Lieutenant Colonel, and the chairman of the National Black Republican Association:

Obama, following in the footsteps of his white ancestors, is also part of the Democratic Party that: (1) fought to keep blacks in slavery; (2) started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize Republicans--black and white; (3) passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws; (4) fought every piece of civil rights legislation from the 1860's to the 1960's; and (5) attacked Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and other civil rights protesters with skin-burning fire hoses and vicious dogs.

While hiding the racist past of the Democratic Party, Obama refuses to give credit to the Republican Party that: (1) started in 1854 as the anti-slavery party and fought to free blacks from slavery; (2) amended the Constitution to grant blacks freedom, citizenship and the right to vote; (3) started the NAACP to stop the Democrats from lynching blacks; (4) passed the civil rights laws of the 1860's that were overturned by the Democrats when they took over Congress in 1892; (5) founded the HBCUs; (6) started affirmative action enforcement in 1969 to help blacks get jobs and contracts based on merit; and (7) fought the Democrats for over six decades until Republicans finally achieved passage of the civil rights laws of the 1950's and 1960's under the leadership of Republican Senator Everett Dirksen of Illinois.

I've been accused of being a racist on this and other boards... which I always found quite odd as I was married to a woman of another race, and I've ALWAYS called out pictures like those and statements that were overtly racist in nature. Go figure. Maybe it's because I'm a Republican and a fiscal conservative, and we all KNOW that equals racist... right?

Everybody knows that there are black Republicans. What's your point?

This is filled with inaccuracies and revisionism.
  1. The Republican Party of 1854 was Republican in name only. If you actually study the History of the Republican and Democratic Parties, you will see the voter shifts and realigning elections that make this clear - main ones happened in response to FDR's New Deal and around the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
  2. The NAACP was founded by liberals (in part by white liberals) - one the main ones was W.E.B. Dubois (the head of the NAACP), who had many philosophical differences with Booker T. Washington, who is considered one of the first black conservatives.
  3. Civil Rights laws of the 1860s - see point #1.
  4. All kinds of people started HBCUs.
  5. I don't know what "starting affirmative action enforcement" means - it sounds like b.s. and spin
  6. The Democratic Protests of the Civil Rights bills are also explained by the voter shifts and realigning elections that Republicans never acknowledge.

Let me explain:
In 1948, Democrats alienated white Southerners in two ways. The Democratic National Convention adopted a strong civil rights plank, leading to a walkout by Southerners. Two weeks later President Harry Truman signed Executive Order 9981 integrating the armed forces. From 1948 onward, southern whites against integration looked for political accommodation for their views...The civil rights movement caused enormous controversy in the white South with many attacking it as a violation of states' rights...With the old barrier to becoming a Republican removed, traditional Southerners joined the new middle class and the Northern transplants in moving toward the Republican Party.

The propaganda as you call it came from the National Black Republicans website. Perhaps your condescension should be directed there?

Sure. It's directed at them and the people who post it as truth without checking their facts.

Disrespect, is disrespect, & Racism is just that with a slight twist.

Some people can't understand how I can disrespect a person and maintain respect for an office. I say all they have to do read the facts about Obama and it has nothing to do with race. Besides I don't see him as a black man. I see him as a Lying, Amateur whose only skill it reading lies from a teleprompter.

Or Obama could be just a fool where race doesn't count.

It was the Republicans who wanted to end slavery. The democeats were against that wacky idea.

yes, but if we use the liberal minded thinking that the tea party, republicans and "white d00ds who don't agree with us" are racist, then this must be true according to the lefts values.,

Actually African American have been voting for white folks in large numbers most of their lives. They have had precious few opportunities to vote for anything else beside those on lower down ballot local offices. And even then that is usually limited to those in large urban centers like big cities African Americans know a whole lot more about a life time history of voting for Whites than Whites do about voting for people of color. Barack Obama is just the period at the end of a very long sentence and even then he is of blended ethnicities

The State Rep I am chief of staff for represents a district 85% African American. He is not.

So the **** what. No one but you and the extreme left lunatic fringe cares about the skin color of the candidate.

Why do you feel that pointing out the foibles of others somehow someway excuses your own racism?
