    "Why do blacks vote for democrats over 90% of the time?"

    personally I can not understand how Trump could even get 10% of the black vote

    NEWS FLASH: the expression "party of slavery" does not in the least mean the party enslaves people. Today the Democrats are the party of riots, but that doesn't mean in the least that they are doing the rioting.

    NEWS FLASH-2: There is no enslavement of anyone anywhere in the country, inane accusations to the contrary not withstanding.

    Most African Americans will vote for whomever they think will give them more.

    If there are other political interests, they don’t talk about them much.

    Democrats were the party of slavery and fought civil rights legislation tooth and nail all the way to the 1960s. Your presentation of one person’s flag notwithstanding. Can you present even one racist quotation from Donald Trump?

    Can you bring your argument to the present day please. Lots of Confederate flags at Trump rallies. None at rallies for Democrats. Case closed.

    Are you going to call me an idiot? History and all.
    Democrats have never apologized for their support of slavery!
    And there is nothing wrong with the confederate flag.
    Many southerners fought and died for state’s rights as they felt this was their duty as they felt the US constitution was being undermined by the North. As it was.

    Case is NOT closed!

    Oh I’m still waiting for the presentation of Donald Trump’s racist quotations.

    By your own admission in your profile post you were called out on this behavior.

    So...not nonsense!

    I have no idea what you're going on about. My profile post was made to correct an erroneous inference. That you bring that up tells me you have nothing but personal attacks. That you go to my profile page tells me you're looking for ammunition to attack me personally. That's just too much investment in someone else for me to take seriously.

    The party of slavery is the one flying the Confederate flag. End of story.

    It’s right in the home page!!
    You complain about me yet you keep responding. Why???
    I ignore tons of people here!
    And are you saying the Republicans are the party of slavery. An institution prohibited 155 years ago???
    Cmon guy, it’s Sunday. Pour yourself a drink and relax. Let one go every now and then!

    I don't drink at work, nor at 8 o'clock in the morning. Have fun. Be safe. Good luck with the time travel argument.

    Try to have some fun. Life doesn’t always have to be serious. If you are at work you probably shouldn’t drink I agree but it doesn’t hurt every now and then. I won’t report you. It’s not my style. ;)

    What purpose do intentionally hyperbolic, factually inaccurate statements like that serve?

    The question should be: WHY do Republicans thirst for Black people's votes, but don't know how to attract them? :gop:

    African Americans on average don’t embrace any entrepreneurial spirit which is central to Republican politics. US Dems give them stuff. So of course they choose Dems.

    Bless Nate Silver's heart, and don't forget to bring the "white goat". ;-)

    “IN CASE I, NATE SILVER, DIE, FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO UPDATE THE FIVETHIRTYEIGHT ELECTIONS FORECAST MODEL” writes Tao Yang in McSweeney’s:

    -Navigate to these coordinates (40.731014, -74.303500) on the night of a waxing moon. Bring a white goat. Once there you will see a keypad.”
    -Enter the probability of a sample mean being two standard deviations from the population mean at a 95% confidence level.
    -To enter the chamber where the model resides you must pass” three trials: shouting out certain baseball metrics; find four stone tablets with a scatterplot etched on each and press the one with a correlation of 0.6; and then find an old Compaq desktop in the final of three chambers, turn it on and boot up to PokerStars with a $10 bankroll you turn into $10,000 to enter the final chamber.

    Finally, select “Update Model” and find an altar appearing behind you. “Chant the new poll results while performing a blood sacrifice with the white goat on the altar.”"

    I doubt it is hyperbole. Maybe the Democrats are not the party of riots, but they are the only party that will not condemn or even criticize, and actively support the rioters, and Nadler says we are just making them up.

    The protestors will be put up within a republican administration. But a casual look at what happened to them in Chicago in 1968 tells you how ruthless the US Democrats can be when they themselves are threatened.

    Because Democrats and liberals lie to them about Trump being a racist, and the press lets them.

    Racism:
    The belief that groups of humans possess different behavioral traits corresponding to physical appearance and can be divided based on the superiority of one race over another

    Cite a racist statement by Trump and copy/paste the text racist text.

    The GOP -does- know to attract their voted, but unlike the Democrats, takes issue with making false promises of free stuff.

    Because democrats are so good at propaganda they would make Goebbels turn a rather unappealing shade of green with envy.

    Are the Dems that good at propaganda, or simply outnumbering alternate viewpoints in the media? If you try to find a conservative in today's newsroom, he or she would be writing NON-political items just to avoid being outed and doxxed and fired --- because Trump.

    Excellent point. I think one of the reasons they are successful is emotion is always more powerful than facts and numbers. So saying "we need to make changes to Social Security because it is going to go insolvent" will never beat "Republicans want old people to die"
