    Two part answer. Despite the fact that FDR intentionally tried to exclude blacks from his New Deal, blacks, who had previously voted overwhelmingly for Republicans, received enough money from FDR to draw 70% of their vote to Democrats. LBJ did the rest. With the Great Society laws and voting rights. making the deal that relieved blacks from working in exchange for the black vote.

    There is no investigative authority known as "the left" as far as I know, but the Republican-controlled Senate Special Committee on Intelligence confirmed the finding of the FBI, NSA, and CIA that all uncovered Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election to help Trump.

    Blacks are stuck in the psychological bonds of being, "Victims."

    The slave bell is still ringing loud and clear. The Democrats used to control slaves by intimidation and by splitting up the Black family units. It still works, but within a different format that most pundits call: "single parent households."

    So Joe, "They All Look Alike," Biden can get away with his herd assessment of the Black population.

    So, there is no more blight or systemic racism on blacks and they can rise up in their economic situations? Is it then a choice to stay in generational welfare circumstances? You gave me 2 examples of democrats buying black people's votes, both of which are also allotted to everyone else, yet only one group stays generationally poor and still votes for the same people under which most blacks live under for 50 years.

    Also, pre LBJ's great society, blacks were gaining more in economic status than after.

    I would like to know, is anyone here that has provided an excuse or reason for blacks to vote for democrats actually black themselves or is all of this whitesplaining?

    Not having a flag is not hostility.

    Of course they can, but it isn't mind control, voters still have free will.

    Is burning flags hostility?

    A good question is whether poor white families are as broken as poor black families, leaving kids with a disadvantage. Kids who grow up in a poor neighborhood stay there because Democrats fight against vouchers to get kids into better schools as though the future of their party depends on it.

    they are totally misinformed and full of hate from the GOP propaganda machine..... Hundreds of phony scandals and ridiculous conspiracies that go nowhere in the real world..... Hint, the rich don't pay enough in taxes to invest in America and Americans for 30 years now.The worst inequality and upward mobility ever anywhere means something.

    More Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 than Democrats. Before that, all the other Civil Rights Acts were voted down by Democrats. LBJ was a big racist, but smart enough to see the writing on the wall because of MLK. He wanted it passed because as he said that Blacks( he used a very derogatory term though) would vote Democrat for 100 years because a Democrat was president. BTW some declassified documents have alluded to the fact that LBJ was a KKK member from his early days in Congress, but strayed away later. He certainly was a racist.

    Really? Is that why blacks in cities where the highest tax rates of the rich exceed 50% of their income are still poor? You can't make people richer by stealing more from the rich. NYC wealthy are now leaving the city because of tyrannical lock downs and now the democrat mayor is letting riots continue unimpeded, on top of being one of the highest taxed cities in the US. BTW, the largest income disparity happens in major democrat cities, not rurally ran GOP areas. But sure, blame it on the ONE "right leaning" news organization out there that college kids don't watch as being the means of them getting misinformation.

    Who cares? He did the right thing. Then Nixon made the GOP the party of the southern conservatives....and Reagan made it the party of giveaway to the rich screw everyone else and total garbage propaganda.

    At least Democrats try and stop Republicans from doing even worse. Stopping Obamacare blocking minimum wage and everything else LOL. Doing away with the safety net that of course blacks need because they are discriminated against horribly.

    Why do most white women vote for Democrats? It's in their DNA they want to be taken care of.

    Blacks are more dependent on government as a percentage of population. The democrat party is the one that wants ever expanding government.

    ,,, Propaganda based on a single Dixiecrat becoming a Republican. That was some serious brainwashing.

    The thread title is
    It's no secrete that Repubs really don't offer the type of dependent lifestyle the Democrats have provided them over the last 100+ years! You must be reading from the Lyndon Baines Johnson book of how to handle the Negro vote.. And yes he had a much nastier title for them as with most Democrats down thru history ;)
