Cop outWhy Republicans so rarely elect black people compared to Democrats? Seems Republicans don't actually like them as much.Black Republican Presidential nominees anyone?When George Wallace ran for President in 1968, it was not as a Democrat – which he had done in the 1964 Democratic primaries and would again in the 1972 Democratic primaries – but as a candidate of the American Independent Party. The American Independent Party was formed by Wallace,[1] whose pro-segregation policies as governor had been rejected by the mainstream of the Democratic Party. In 1968 he ran on the idea that "there's not a dime's worth of difference between the two major parties".
None have yet won the Primaries. YOu libs seem to think that proves something. But can't seem to explain why.
Hard to elect people that are in the other party. I mean, that is pretty obvious. How did you miss that?
Republicans claim they do so much for blacks and mock Democrats.
Meanwhile, they don’t even have offices or campaign in black and minority communities.
If they have so much to offer, why can’t they win those areas?
