If you're Black, you might be fully invested in the Liberal Left Democrat narrative that you're a Victim - that you are in a helpless, hopeless situation that is rigged against you. And that the Democrats have a plan to rescue you. But take a look at your return on investment. In 1964 the War on Poverty [24] was launched when the poverty rate for Blacks was twice the population average. After 54 years under Democrat Socialist-based solutions and $1,135B spent last year on the Poverty War, the Black poverty rate is still twice the population average [11].
Consider the fact that the Democrat party needs your vote to stay in power. And, in order to get your vote the Democrat party needs you to believe that you are a hopeless, helpless victim. Therefore, the Democrat party needs you to stay in poverty so badly that they will enact insidious policies that sound good but in reality are designed to keep you in your place. Because, if you were ever to rise out of poverty you would no longer be a victim.
One example of insidious Democrat policies that keep you in your place is Affirmative Action. Sounds good, right? You get an extra privilege that rights past wrongs. But in fact, Affirmative Action injects you with self-doubt, and puts you under the glare of others who likewise doubt your qualifications.
The fact is, there IS a plan that will erase the poorly performing investment in the Democrat part narrative, but you will need to rethink your investment strategy to achieve it. Read on for details.
One only needs to see the sentiments of former Democrat President Lyndon Johnson to understand the true support Blacks have from liberal Democrats:
Blacks are merely a pawn to gain Power and self-enrichment - for politicians and activists.
Here's the facts Liberal Democrats don't want you to know, has the full backing of Big Media and Big Tech to keep it hidden from you, and to saturate you with deceitful propaganda.
Democrat Senator Strom Thurmond holds the record for the longest single-person filibuster in U.S. Senate history (24 hours and 18 minutes) [7].
What bill was so important to filibuster to kill it?
The 1957 Civil Rights Act, which was proposed by Republican President Dwight Eisenhower to protect the voting rights of Blacks by establishing the Civil Rights Division in the Justice department and a U.S. Civil Rights Commission [8].
When the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act was sent to Congress, Democrat Howard W. Smith, chair of the House Rules committee, vowed to keep the bill bottled up indefinitely. Political pressure ultimately caused Smith to relent.
After the bill passed the House, 18 Democrat Senators including Albert Gore Sr., Robert Byrd, Richard Russell, Russell Long, Strom Thurmond, J. William Fulbright, and a lone Republican engaged in an unsuccessful 83 day filibuster, the longest ever, that included a stint by Senator Robert Byrd, who personally filibustered for 14 hours 13 minutes straight [9].
Here's a young Black couple that confronted the above claims [39] to find out if they are true. Check out what they found.
If you are confused about whether Democrats have really had a change of heart about Civil Rights, refer to the second LBJ quote above. Be attentive to observe that Democrats are still not doing things for you. Instead, they invent things to inflame you, make you angry and bitter, to convince you that your situation is hopeless and that you are a Victim. None of that actually helps you. Solid Republican actions deliver results for the Black community (see below).
Make no mistake about it, the Liberal Democrat goal was, and is, to keep you on the Plantation [29].
Liberal Democrats are expert at relabeling bad things to make them sound good. Here are some examples of what Liberal Democrats really think of Blacks, compared to what they say:
THE BIG LIE | WHAT DEMOCRATS BELIEVE | THE REALITY + IMPACT |
---|---|---|
Requiring a Photo ID suppresses the Black vote | Unlike everybody else, Blacks are too stupid to figure out how to get a Photo ID. | Virtually all Blacks (as well as other races) already have a Photo ID. Photo IDs are a common-sense barrier to fraudulent voting. |
The low rate of Black COVID-19 vaccination rates is because Blacks don't know how to sign-up to get vaccinated | Unlike everybody else, Blacks are too stupid to know how to sign-up to get vaccinated. | Many Blacks (as well as Conservatives) choose not to be vaccinated, which is their right in our Free country. Credibility of the CDC is low due to waffling, conflicting, and politically influenced "guidance". Where's the Science? |
Affirmative Action-based employment and loan programs not only need to continue, but need to be expanded [10] due to systemic discrimination | Blacks are inferior, incapable of competing in the marketplace without race-based quotas and assistance | Blacks are as intelligent and as capable as any other race. Equality before the law is a bedrock American principle. It requires that people be treated as individuals, rather than as members of racial groups. |
The high Black poverty rate is due to Systemic Racism | Blacks won't stop to look at the facts. They will accept the Democrat, Mainstream Media and Big Tech propaganda without thinking. | Factors other than racial discrimination, especially the breakdown of the Family, are the dominant factors impacting poverty in the Black community
|
Affirmative Action-based college admissions quotas need to continue, and academic performance should be diminished as a criteria |
Blacks are inferior, incapable of demonstrating objective academic performance to obtain admission Blacks require the crutch of admissions quotas to replace academic performance in order to succeed |
Blacks are as intelligent and as capable as any other race. Factors other than racial discrimination, such as the home environment and insidious permissive Democrat policies, are the dominant factor impacting success of the Black community. See our recommendation under the End Generational Poverty section of this web site. |
The United States needs the Undocumented Immigrant population from Central and South America to increase our diversity |
Democrats are losing their lockhold on the Black vote (it's true) [12]. Blacks will be enamored with the "diversity" label and blindly support anything labeled Diverse |
There are already nearly 1½ as many Hispanics in the United States as Blacks. Illegal Immigrants are overwhelmingly low education, low skill, non-English speaking. The result:
|
Infrastructure is racist. Bridges on the Southern State Parkway were purposely built too low to permit buses with Black people onboard to get to Jones Beach. | Blacks are too stupid to find any other way to get to the beach. | All commercial traffic was excluded by legislation on early American Parkways because they were intended to be scenic. Thus, buses (and trucks) were not allowed on the Southern State or any other Parkway in the first place. Knowing that legislation could change, designers of bridges on Parkways purposely built them low based on the desire to preserve these scenic drives by making it expensive to later replace the bridges [27]. |
Blacks who are Conservative or oppose |
Democrats have come to realize that they are unable to defend their poor policies on their merits, so must resort to name calling, intimidation, shaming and bullying. | Conservative Black leadership is extraordinarily talented, having achieved worldwide notoriety in the top of their professions. Any of these leaders can clearly articulate why their policies strongly benefit the Black community. |
Don't Take The Bait
Democrats realize they are losing their grip on their "Victims" as their "Victims" become wise to that fact that Democrats seek only to make them Angry - but not help them. In fact, Blacks are waking up to the fact that Democrat policies have the sinister effect of keeping Blacks in their place - low income, and increasingly dependent on Government handouts, subsidies and race-based support. To keep Blacks in line, on the plantation, politicians resort to shaming, intimidation and bullying:
Kamala Harris, who would become the first Black and first female Vice President, urged Black voters in Atlanta and the surrounding suburbs to “honor the ancestors” by heading to the polls and voting for Democrats [12].Pretty much every day you watch the news you will hear a Liberal Democrat proclaiming that every Conservative (including Black Conservatives) is Racist. Everywhere you turn something is declared to be Racist - income, education, the environment, even food. It's time we hold Liberal Democrats accountable for results, not name calling.
Studies show that large numbers of Blacks actually vote against their ideologies, ethics and values due to social pressure from other Blacks [15]. Black peer pressure is a significant factor holding the Black community back from achieving greater success.
Democrats push political stereotypes. Listen to this testimony [19] from a person who had his eyes opened to reality.
Finally, studies show that the actual instigators of Black activists are White Woke Liberal Democrats seeking to further their power against the will, and at the expense of the Black and Brown community [35].
Are YOU willing to stand up to the bullying, intimidation and shaming to take a fresh look at how Conservative policies help you, while Democrat policies hurt you?
Don't Take The Bait
By now you've probably heard that the Democrats are terrified of the prospect that Vice President Kamala Harris might become President of the United States. That's because they knew even before she was placed on the election ticket that she is woefully underqualified to lead the country. Her resume is littered with career advancement via sexual favors to corrupt influential men rather than filled with contributions and accomplishments for the American people. That's got nothing to do with her skin color. It's got everything to do with her morals and character.
So knowing this, why did the Democrats, who witnessed her become one of the earliest drop-outs of the Democrat Primary race, place her on the election ticket just one heartbeat from the Presidency? It's simple. To reinforce the Black vote. 87% of Blacks (81% of men and 91% of women) voted for the Biden/Harris ticket. Cities with large Black populations such as Philadelphia, Detroit and Atlanta bolstered Biden's lead in key battleground states the Democrat Party lost four years ago. Four years ago there was no Black candidate on the Democrat ticket. The Democrats needed a token Black candidate on the ticket - one already rejected in the Democrat's own Primary with a mere 5% of the vote - to entice Blacks to vote for the Democrat ticket. And it worked [20], [21], [22].
Have you ever wondered why the Democrat party keeps up the constant drumbeat of Racism? It's not to help you. It's simply to get your vote. It's to keep you angry, frustrated, feeling helpless and hopeless, a Victim. Sadly, the Democrat goal is to get you to vote for "anything Black" - ignoring all other considerations such as Leadership, Policies, accomplishments and contributions. The Democrat party and the Country are now paying the price, as the Democrat party direction is failing miserably, with polls reflecting the dismal performance of the Biden/Harris administration.
Next time consider looking beyond skin color to discover what the candidate you support is actually capable of doing for you.

Under Democrat control in the 12-months ending June 2022 prices increased 9.1% including 33.1% for eggs, 16.4% for milk, 60.2% for gasoline, 98.5% for fuel oil and 38.4% for piped gas heating fuel. These increases marked a 40-year high [30]. Since the Biden administration took office prices have increased 14.9% [37]. In 18 short months items you purchased in January 2020 for $100 have now escalated to cost $115. If you are on fixed income your outlook is especially dim as year-over-year inflation will just compound the problem.
RECESSION - despite Biden administration denials, the economy entered recession in June 2022, as confirmed by economists and business leaders. The first thing Democrats did after confirmation of the recession was to approve another massive tax-and-spend bill that economists agree will make inflation worse.
Democrat policies disproportionately harm low income people because they hit staple items needed by everyone for basic survival (food, rent and transportation) the hardest. Democrat policies support illegal immigration (costing Billions and driving wages down), penalize businesses (especially energy and transportation industries), and squander Billions on wasteful big Government spending programs.
Staggering Illegal immigration also drove up housing and rent prices, especially lower cost housing. In 2021 rents increased 15.2% and home purchase costs increased 18.8%, again breaking decades-long records [36].
Under Republican control unemployment fell to historic lows, millions were lifted off of welfare, and low income wages rose faster than high income wages.
If your income is low, you should carefully consider who should get your vote. Democrat policies are dragging you down; Republican policies will lift you up.

During President Trump's administration there was a dramatic improvement in how Blacks fared [16]:
Under President Biden's administration these achievements are slipping back to former levels.
