    It is the Republicans that had the moral fortitude to end slavery. The Republicans had to deal with the racist Democratic party for over 100 years to get the proper freedoms to the Africans Americans and former slaves

  2. Get out of here with that BS.Todays republican party is nothing like Lincolns republican party

    Whatever party represents the south is the party of racists.Lincolns republican party sure as hell didn't represent the south,todays republican party does

    Blacks are leaving the racist, segregated, crime-ridden cities controlled by the democrats...they are heading into the new Republican south. It has only been 20 years since the Republicans have taken control of the local politics. Since then Blacks have seen the way to a new life.

    http://www.brookings.edu/reports/2004/05demographics_frey.aspx

    An analysis of migration data from the past four decennial censuses at regional, state, and metropolitan-area levels indicates that:

    The South scored net gains of black migrants from all three of the other regions of the U.S. during the late 1990s, reversing a 35-year trend. Of the 10 states that suffered the greatest net loss of blacks between 1965 and 1970, five ranked among the top 10 states for attracting blacks between 1995 and 2000.

    Southern metropolitan areas, particularly Atlanta, led the way in attracting black migrants in the late 1990s. In contrast, the major metropolitan areas of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco experienced the greatest out-migration of blacks during the same period.

    Among migrants from the Northeast, Midwest, and West regions, blacks were more likely than whites to select destinations in the South.

  4. Has nothing to do with the current republican party representing the confederates states of america.Good news is more blacks in southern states might start making the southern states more competitive for democrats .

    Something caused this. Either the Blacks are being drawn to the South or being driven from the North.
    The North is union controlled, democratic controlled and full of failing industries.
    The Republican South is a free to work land with job growth and good services.

    Those are all the results of politics.

    Why do you think Blacks are deciding to move into what you call the "racist south"?

  6. And turning them blue.Houston,the countrys 4th biggest city and the souths biggest city is solidly blue with a democratic mayor and Houston voted for Obama.Atlanta is also a democratic city that went to Obama.Bush won Georgia by 17 % and McCain only won by 5 %

    I hope they keep heading south

  7. I'll also add that Bush won Texas by 22 % and Mccain won by 11 %.Blacks moving south seems to be great for democrats.In about 20 years Texas and Georgia will be blue states !!!!!!!!!!

    Yes, and the cycle continues.
    Starting about year 1900 the Blacks leave the Democratic racist Jim Crow south. They head to the mostly Republican North and in the next 90 years old they vote Democratics in office until the Blacks become uneducated and segregated, stuck in projects, used for votes. Now they head back to the free and growing Republican south.
    If they continue to vote for Democratics I am sure at some point ,again, they will need to leave another decaying situation and find the booming Republican territory.

  10. RCG is a complete dipshit if he truly believes that statement. Put one juror on a panel that is black and 9 times out of 10 they will not only dismiss the merits of the case, they will simply acquit due to color.

    It's a fact. Only these dipshits who continue to perservere with their "victim's mentality" fail to see the obvious.
