row_33 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The polls say they do. I don't trust the polls, they asked tilted questions and often pretend they actually asked a real person, often just filling in whatever they want.

DC Tom Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Kennedy. His election marks the start of an evolution of the Democratic party from being dominated by "Dixiecrats" to domination by Northeastern liberalism. Which, by 1970, had caused many people to "switch sides," so to speak. Up to then, most blacks voted Republican, which was the party founded in Northeastern liberalism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The migration of blacks to northern cities around the turn of the century and through the early decades of it led the Democratic political machines of the large cities to reach out to blacks. This picked up steam in the New Deal and was firmly in place when Truman de-segregated the military in 1948. The judges appointed by FDR are the ones that were the force behind desegregation, though Earl Warren was a Repub, that's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Tonight, in a televised interview, Mr. King asserted that President Lyndon B. Johnson must have been part of a military and governmental conspiracy to kill Dr. King." https://www.irishcentral.com/news/jackie-kennedy-lyndon-b-johnson-jfk-murder "Kennedy revealed her belief that Johnson and a cabal of Texas tycoons orchestrated the murder of her husband" and her choice of the word CABAL was no accident.... https://www.cbsnews.com/news/robert-kennedy-jr-seeks-investigation-father-assassination-sirhan-sirhan/ "Last year Robert F.

The Foreign Broadcast Information Service had picked up reports that Israel had launched its attack. (OCI soon concluded that the Israelis— contrary to their claims—had fired first.) President Johnson was gratified that because of CIA analyses and Helms's tip, he could inform congressional leaders later in the day that he had been expecting Israel's move" .... especially since LBJ gave Israel all those US made weapons for free, since the weapons were supposed to go to our troops in 'nam, but LBJ's objective in 'nam wasn't to win, it was to endlessly keep the war going to run our weapons factories and siphon the weapons off to ISRAEL... and then Zionist Traitor LBJ got on TV and told the American people that Israel was attacked and was defending itself....

LaDexter Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Exit polling is one way. But there really isn't much to base a counter argument. The overwhelming majority of blacks in the US vote for the Dems. In fact, a lot of them passionately hate blacks who don't. Ask any black Democrat if Black Republicans should have minority rights.... and have a good laugh at their "tolerance." And then there was the truth of FLA 2000 https://www.nationalreview.com/2003/12/let-sunshine-john-r-lott-jr/ "Earlier this year I published an article in the Journal of Legal Studies analyzing the USA Todaydata, and it shows that African-American Republicans who voted were 54 to 66 times more likely than the average African American to cast a non-voted ballot (either by not marking that race or voting for too many candidates). To put it another way: For every two additional black Republicans in the average precinct, there was one additional non-voted ballot. By comparison, it took an additional 125 African Americans (of any party affiliation) in the average precinct to produce the same result. Some readers may be surprised that black Republicans even exist in Florida, but, in fact, there are 22,270 such registered voters–or about one for every 20 registered black Democrats. This is a large number when you consider that the election in the state was decided by fewer than 1,000 votes. Since these Republicans were more than 50 times more likely to suffer non-voted ballots than other African Americans, the reasonable conclusion is that George W. Bush was penalized more by the losses of African-American votes than Al Gore." ... which is what the USA Today recount proved.... The worst offenders for tossing out Black Republican ballots were the canvass boards staffed with.... all black Democrats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) i don't for a second doubt that demographics play out that way but it's not a constituency that is seen as worthwhile to pursue, at the end of the day exit polls showed that senior citizens in 2000 attacked by pollsters with an agenda got scared and couldn't remember who they actually voted for, maybe they DID vote for Ralph? can i have a nap now? polls are as reliable as McNamara and Westmoreland's stats showing Nam would be out of North fighters by Christmas 1966 at this rate.... even less credibility Edited August 9, 2018 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaDexter Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Exit polls do tend to be biased against the GOP simply because Dem voters are much more likely to loudly tell someone they don't know who they voted for after they voted.

We did lose Vietnam due to weapons shortages, though the early M16’s were infamous for failure — I myself enjoy the platform and have never had trouble with it. We lost Vietnam for getting sucked into a defensive war, and the NVA used a mixture of Fabian / guerrilla warfare. That and we had a lot of liberals and cowards, like Donald Trump, who didn’t want to pull their weight. The war could have ended with an invasion of the North. Or we could have used Eisenhower’s strategy of creating a nuclear dead zone to cut off the NVA. There were numerous options. The American fighting man did NOT lose that war. The American fighting man killed over a half million of ‘em to less than 60,000 US killed. The Romans lost more at Cannae in one afternoon and won the war it was in. They wanted it. They had the martial spirit. The American fighting man had the drive and the spirit to win ‘Nam.

Juror#8 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) I’ve always attributed Blacks’ traditionally democratic affiliation as a rejection of Goldwater who was one of the few mainstream national politicians opposed to the Civil Rights Act. He took a shitton of southern democrats along with him. Democrats who, through an electoral and philosophical shift, are now all Republicans. A lot of that shift and history accounts for the oft repeated, but patently untrue, notion that Republicans are racist. So over time things like Republicans not courting minority votes, and some of the **** Reagan did or didn’t do (opposition to Civil Rights and Voting Rights act and support of apartheid South Africa), and of course Hw and the Willie Horton infamy, and little **** like that, blacks have just grown incrementally and generationally distrustful of Republicans. It also helps that Jimmy Carter was considered a champion to black folks especially. And he was a political caretaker between Nixon, Ford, and then Reagan. I interviewed jc watt more than a decade ago for something I was writing for a program that I didn’t finish. He talked openly with me about how his party was way too exclusionary and that blacks had to somehow be able to fight through that political “cold shoulder” to somehow be able to see the natural policy alignment between conservativism and the black community. He said “we both know that ain’t happenin.” True story. Edited August 10, 2018 by Juror#8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
