TRENDING: Cain: Black community brainwashed into voting for Dems CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs
"African-Americans have been brainwashed into not being open minded, not even considering a conservative point of view," Cain said on CNN's "The Situation Room" in an interview airing Wednesday between 5-7 p.m. ET. "I have received some of that same vitriol simply because I am running for the Republican nomination as a conservative. So it's just brainwashing and people not being open minded, pure and simple."
Cain wasn't going to get the nomination anyway, but to me this really feels like a gaffe. Part of that is probably that it reminds me of George Romney's "brainwashing" gaffe (George Romney presidential campaign, 1968 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Obscure historical references aside, Cain's comments seem offensive, and I doubt his own race is going to give him much cover. I think the only acceptable position for a politician asking for votes is to respect the voters, and he failed to do that. Pleading for open-mindedness would have been fine, but he went too far.

I found them accurate. Really have dem policies helped or hurt the african american community as a whole?
Check this out......

It pisses me off that my fellow Americans with dark skin are content to let the government take care of them. That they don't believe they are worthy of anything else, that they don't have the ability to move forward. Why don't they stand up for themselves and better their lives, the lives of their children and grandchildren.
It can be done, there are many that have actually broken free. Dems want to keep them dumbed down, give them some free stuff and let them continue to live in less than desirable environments. All because they want their vote, not because they care. If they really cared they'd be helping them get off welfare, offer job training opportunities and education. My mother did this in the 60s, we got off welfare, she got a good job, she worked hard as a single parent, giving 4 children everything they needed.
Why do they allow this to happen to them?? They don't have to live like this!!!
Whens the last time the Dems did anything significant for the black community??
Like lots of others on this board I think they vote Dem because of entitlements. Its human nature to vote for the party thats gonna give you freebees. Wonder how long they would vote Dem is the free ride came to a halt??
I work for and with some fine African Americans. Successful African Americans in their field. These folks aren't waiting around for a handout from anyone. They have college degrees and a go get em attitude.
Blacks in this country--need to really look at the issues and vote with their minds. They need to stand up and say what's good for this country--what's good for my kids--and what is this country going to look like for my grandchildren.
I already did, dipshit.Blacks in this country--need to really look at the issues and vote with their minds. They need to stand up and say what's good for this country--what's good for my kids--and what is this country going to look like for my grandchildren.
And you think they don't?
This thread is 11 pages long and still NO ONE has listed any policy or stance that the GOP currently has that would benefit the Black Community. The Democrats aren't perfect, but they're at least trying to help people. Maybe that's why people vote for them?

Really? That's what you want to go with? That's the one thing the GOP stands for that is for the betterment of the Black Community?Give them access to charter schools, and a voucher program

Nope. He's right.

The retard brains of Republitards, tell people to switch parties to another party even if that party has done nothing.
Unlike the dem's, the GOP stands for helping all americans, as opposed to classifying them. The dem's classify for purely political reasons. The dem's enact policies to keep people down. Tells the blacks that government is the answer to all of their problems.I already did, dipshit.And you think they don't?

TeaTards have no shame. Blacks know the right sucks.
