Mike I concur wholeheartedly Jesus is the reason for Conservatives and Liberals

Slavery ended 150 years ago but racism against blacks did not. After the abolition of slavery, blacks were treated like sub-humans in America. Four young ladies were blown to bits in a church of all places. This incident occurred well after slavery. They met their demise because they were black. They did not die because they were up to no good. Righteousness exalts a nation not Conservatism or Liberalism. Jesus is DA MAN

I Like how Mr. Sowell continues to focus on the racism of the left. Mr Sowell when reading your columns the words intellectual dishonesty comes to mind. Congratulations, you and Jesse Lee Petersen have a lot in common. Righteousness exalts a nation, Not Liberalism or Conservatism.

Therein lies the problem. Righteousness exalts a nation, not Liberalism or Conservatism.

Kidioist: If this is entirely true, why is it that Jesse Lee Petersen or Herman Cain would have difficulty garnering 88% percent of the black vote? Correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't the aforementioned gentlemen black? Jesus loves everybody including Conservatives and Liberals

Mr Prager you're in denial if you believe the left and the left only supports the legalization of marijuana. You're in deeper denial if you think the left and the left only is smoking weed or in other drug. Jesus loves believers and non-believers.

It is misleading at this site and other sites to say that blacks for Obama primarily because he's black. Would 90% of black people vote for Jesse Lee Petersen or Clarence Thomas? However, 90% of blacks voted for Bill Clinton and John Kerry. By the way those guys are white. It's the message or in the case or conservatism, the hostile messengers: Limbaugh, Fox News etc. Jesus is not a Liberal or Conservative Jesus loves Liberals and Conservatives.

Riddle me this my conservative brethren, explain to me why a black conservative presidential candidate has never received a high percentage of the white conservative vote.? Isn't it true that these black conservatives have "credentials and potential". Say what you want about white liberals, but they supported Obama in droves. Are you guys going to tell me that Sarah Palin has more government experience than Allan Keyes (remember him)? The mistake that conservatives continue to make is that they spend more time attacking non-conservatives minorities instead of articulating a coherent conservative message. Rush Limbaugh and Fox news are not helpful at all in this regard.

Fillerbustering and grandstanding are distant cousins. However, I would've voted for Rand Paul's father in a heartbeat. Ron Paul/Christine O'donnell 2016. Jesus is not a Conservative or a Liberal Jesus died on the cross for Conservatives and Liberal

I think a minimum wage increase is a great idea. I support worker's fairness. Since this is the christian side of the aisles, i wonder if Jesus opposes a minimum wage hike. Jesus is neither Conservative nor Liberal Jesus died on the cross for conservatives and Liberals.

Dobermite and Andy 544 I share your sentiments about Fox News. Athough I have no qualms about LIberals and Conversatives being chummy with one another. Translation: I can disagree with your politics, but I dont have to hate you personally. Jesus is not a Conservative or a Liberal But he died on the cross for Conservatives and Liberals.
