Exactly.

Maybe it's the fact that some of us have a mind of our own.

I'm a 38 year old black man who has been voting democrat straight down the line since I was 18. Not anymore. The Democratic party is not for straight black men. It's not for straight men of any race. The Democratic party is for women and the LGBTLMNOP community. Will I be a Republican...probably not. But as a 38 year old professional black man, I have more in common with a white conservative man than I do with a white liberal man.
I used to debate conservatives all the time and they would always shut me up with CDC stats. When the stats say that over 70% of black kids are born to single mothers, you cant argue it. So I started to look at the stats more. And the stats show that almost 50% of black men are single with no kids. Another 27% are married. So there is about 25% - 30% (cross section of married men) of black men that are responsible for the 70% of black babies born out of wedlock. Before I read this, I thought that every black man had about 3 or 4 illegitimate kids but thats not the case. All I ever heard from black women is that black men "ain't shite".
Big government and feminism has destroyed the black family. The government came to black women and said that if you kick the black man out of the house, we will give you all of the benefits you need. This was in the 70s. They have been happily married every since. The Democratic party wont allow this marriage to end. They need votes from black women. In the 30s and 40s, black americans had a higher marriage rate than white americans. It wasnt until the late 60s and early 70s when welfare was introduced where a requirement was no man needed to be in the home.
There is a clear majority of black men that are doing the right thing. I thought I was the only single black man with no kids in my area, but we are half of the black male population. But there are these black women that have babies with a small pool of black men in exchange for that household and benefits. This needs to stop. Its a cycle that goes on for generations. I cant find a wife because damn near all of them have kids.
Black men have their problems too but they are mostly the result of being raised by a single mother. The Democratic party doesn't want to upset their most loyal base by telling these single mothers that they have to fend for themselves. This is exactly what they need. I no longer want to be a part of it.
Excellent post Commandeaux. But what you wrote makes me sad. Here we have a major political party using false promises to an entire race just to obtain power... and for what? The sake of being powerful?
I encourage everyone to question everything like Commandeaux has.

I have always believed that the Democratic party is diametrically opposed to Black Americans... always has.
DEMOCRATS stood in the doorway of the University of Alabama to keep black students out, just as DEMOCRATS stand in the way of school vouchers for black students today.
DEMOCRATS want to Federally fund the organization started by the eugenicist Margaret Sanger to kill unborn black babies just as Democrats lynched black American's in the past.
DEMOCRATS have left black Americans to live in cesspools of crime and poverty - Chicago, New Orleans, Baltimore, Detroit... ALL DEMOCRAT run.
And now that the black voice has been weakened through these policies... they are moving on to Hispanics.
Evil sons-of-bitches. I'm glad you see the light. Help us save more.

Good post, and just out of curiosity, do you have these stats handy?

Thanks for posting. You may not be a Republican but the important thing is that you are a man has seen a problem and given thought and researched the issue to come to your own conclusion.
Wish there were more people on the left that would try that approach.

There won't be a more devastating post than this all week, maybe month.

I'm taking coat orders for the next session. Also, do you need inscription on the inside pocket?
I wish many more in your communities, churches and regular day jobs would at least be open to the possibility of not being used as a prop. Talk to those folks, explain your side, explain that you aren't recruiting them to be Republicans but just so they will open their eyes. The sooner the DNC is DOA, the better it is for the country. They promote hatred and vitriol which isn't needed in this tense time.
Glad you have opened your eyes. Welcome

OP I think you are spot on with the issues and culture that the democratic party has put onto the black community. Hopefully you are just one member of a much larger group of the black community that are opening their eyes to this systemic issue.

This is 100% true in a very literal sense. Even PBS has done documentaries on it, including projects like Pruitt-Igoe in St Louis.

Awesome
you need to go and explain to other black males why you are not longer a Lib/Dem/Prog? Conservatives have been saying, virtually everything you have posted for years, only to fall on mostly deaf ears. It will take Black men, like yourself, to speak with other Black men about this. As Trump said to blacks during his campaign, "what do you have to lose?"
Good Luck on not being called a "sale out, Uncle Tom, etc".
I always found it interesting that "whites" were about 45/45 on politically party affiliation. Latinos are about 65/35 Dem/Rep. But African americans are +92% dem, talk about systematic indoctrination!!
