Just because the Black vote has been a certain way, couldn't that change if the Repubs took on Carson? That is how the current president was elected.


Obama got 90 percent of the Black vote.

But ninety percent Blacks voted against Alan Keys. And 90 percent of Blacks voted against Al Sharpton.

So dont bank on Carson getting the Black vote just because he's Black.


Keyes is Conservative, but Sharpton isn't. Why did they vote against Sharpton?

Probably for the same reason Whites voted against him. He is crazy fringe person not qualified for the office.

Carson is not as flamboyant a character as Al Sharpton, and might make a good surgeon. But it aint obvious how he is qualified for public office to very many voters of any color of either party either.

But then again Trump is kind of a White Al Sharpton! Crazy, and fringe. Both even have bad hair! And that doesnt hurt Trump with Whites apparently! Lol!

Who? Seriously who beyond Fuge who continues to misinterpret what I put and wont accept they misinterpreted the original post?

All I did was tell you that you were being offtopic, turning a thread about the democratic primaries, which was obvious by the original post into something to do with Republican pride. I'm not using the word obvious with an abrasive tone either. It was obvious. I posted a map of civil war borders and labeled it. I posted a map of how Democrats were voting in the primaries this year and clearly labeled it. I made a jib about hoping the trend continues. It was all very obvious. Instead people came in with tinted red and blue vision and turned my peaceful thread about the primaries into a discussion about political parties.
you weren't making it very clear what point you were trying to make, it looked like you were trying to correlate confederacy membership with democratic voters. I apologize if you thought I was just being antagonistic to no end, that wasn't the case.
