I'm African American and will vote Republican?

Question

Not actually because I care about politics but democrats don't do anything for people that have voted for many years.

Almost I'm tired of seeing democrats attacking white people all the time. We're all Americans regardless of race and color.

The democratic party now want to include ''reparations'' as part of their platform. But reparations for what?

Slavery/segregation happened many years ago and to keep bringing it up means that the left are attacking white people for something they have little to nothing to do with.

Also as for BLM, I believe that there are genuine concerns with policing in this country but African American males make up six percent of the population and 52 percent of homicide.

Unlike many in my community I grew up poor and fatherless but I didn't let that stop me. I decided to work hard in my education and sports and I am soon to graduate at a top university with a 2:1 degree. I chose this rather than to live a life of poverty and government assistance.

Poverty is tough but it depends on a person's will and desire to succeed and not big government.

I am a non partisan but I strongly encourage my African American brothers and sisters to ask tougher questions of the democratic party and look for alternatives if they are not satisfied. Perhaps embrace the Republican or Libertarian party? What I know for sure is that if African Americans continue to vote unilaterally for one party then the situation will never get better.

GOD BLESS THE USA!

Answer 1

The republicans have been screwing over the whites as much as the democrats have been screwing over the blacks. If you want to see change you have to vote against the agendas of those in power who are screwing you over and most people just don’t have enough wit for that.

Compared to a President, you claim to support, a man who said that "good people" march along side those carrying KKK and Nazi flags. You support a man who won't denounce the KKK.

How attempting to repeal Obamacare and as that failed to now defund it will help African Americans?
