A "New" Black Conservative Movement is underway; Democrats and Liberals be Afraid...be very Afraid!

1 Comment

Refreshing!

Rich,

What a great post! I am sorry I took so long to see it.
I have often thought that the real victims in the black community are the conservatives with the courage to speak out regarding the problems that plague their fellow black Americans. Daring to hold the community at large to higher standards or condemning the perpetual state of dependence created by the liberal establishment are seen as offenses punishable by ridicule, scorn and banishment. On top of that injustice, great Americans like yourself are subject to the racial discrimination that exists largely because of the thug culture that is routinely excused away by large segments of the community.
It is my fervent hope that you are correct in your assumption that the black conservative movement is on the verge of a groundswell. I was lucky enough to see a black conservative, Charles Lawler of Charles County, MD, speak at a TEA party in Cecil County, MD on Saturday. In a crowd of 550 people, Mr. Lawler was one of only three black people I noticed in the crowd. Of all the speakers there, he was easily the most inspiring. I predict great things for Mr. Lawler's political career.
Keep the faith and stay vocal. You are a talented and visionary communicator.
