LOLOLI know...I knowRepublicans have elected only eight black members to congress in the last hundred yearsHow is it not logical?
What do you believe the state of the Republican Party to be?
If the Democratic Party is so great for the black community, why is the bulk of the community pretty much right where it was a half-century ago when the Democrats became the favored party?
That's a false narrative. Why do Republicans act as if black Democrats aren't significant members of the Democratic Party? They don't stand apart. Black and white Democrats work together to elect black and white Democrats. There are 49 members of the Congressional Black Caucus, including one Republican. If you want to pretend that was the case a half-century ago, knock yourself out. And then follow our handy Concussion Protocol.
You do understand the meaning of quality over quantity do you not ??
Over a hundred years we just can’t find any qualified blacks. They just lack the basics to meet tough Republican standardsI know...I knowRepublicans have elected only eight black members to congress in the last hundred yearsHow is it not logical?

"The first Republican I knew was my father, and he is still the Republican I most admire. He joined our party because the Democrats... would not register him to vote. The Republicans did. My father has never forgotten that day, and neither have I." [Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice]
And let me cap this off with a video of S. Carolina senator and Black Republican Tim Scott explaining why he is a Republican . Tim Scott Answers: Why Are You a Republican?
Only one person on your list was ever even elected to public office. And even he was appointed for his first term as a Senator.
That’s because the racist right is too racist to elect blacks; which to @rightwinger’s point, there have been only 8 in more than 100 years.
