Why do majority of blacks support Democrats?

screw you, i am from a red state texas to be exact i have gone through some of the worst displays of the good ole boys system. which the rep. assholes hold true and dear. just to start off i grew up on welfare, i am not on it now i make about 50-60k per year in a place where the median income is 20k,not anything to brag about but i feel that in texas and so much in U.S. it is about who you know and not how much you know,that predisposes people to the choices they make be it political or in life. I am a dem. and liberal for as long as i live even if i make 250k a year because i feel for the real people in general, i am not suprised by a son of a lawyer or a doctor that gets into college and fullfills his or her dreams. i am suprised and happy to see children of poor people make to healm of a better life for them and there children. and to the crap that was said about handouts thats bullshit and you know it those people pay their fair share of taxes. be it sales and their paycheck. i hate that how americans thumb thier noses at others like they are so much better. you guys need to get a freakin grip on whats really going on, your up hear whining about how you cant get the lexus with the sunroof,because you are too busy funding freeloaders. what kind of crap is that. you guys make it seem like america was made for you ,AND YOU ONLY ! ohh i for got if you want to make this generlized to the black community i wanna clear your vision a little are you going by what somone tells you or facts that black people are standing in line for "your" handouts,uhh give me some damn documentation where it says that black people are a ******* burden to your community, and i will give you one that say just as many white people are on as black and in some cases more. i am so tired of this crap when somone says welfare people somehow attribute it to black people! for one thing i never have standed in line for you ******* money even back when i made 5.75 an hr and worked as a demeaning cart atted for a dep store and i had a child and wife to help take care while i was in school.

I do not know why that is seeing that Republicans have performed a lot more for blacks than Dems. Abe Lincoln and Martin Luther King, Jr. had been each Republicans, and I consider that they and Booker T. Washington might be SO disenchanted with what's going on at present. Booker T. Washington headquartered Tuskegee Institute in order that black persons might emerge as expert and ethical in order that they might bigger exist with others and be victorious. These nice guys might absolutely no longer advertise welfare, because the Dems do.

If you’re asking for a personal view?

I wouldn't have either one.....

Democrats or Rep.

This last election between Bush & Albert Arnold "Al" Gore, Jr.

"I just had to put in his whole name".

"One had to vote for one of the "lesser evils".

But to your question....

I'm a Republican {? correct spelling}....

I think that this question could be better answered by the following:

1.NAACP

2.Jesse Jackson

&

3.AL Sharpton

And believe it or not...

It all started when the government started handing out...

Free meal tickets in schools

&

The relax or easily way for most to receive foodstamps

back in the early going of the 1960's.....

Big Government can take care of everything even feed, dress, and house & take care of your medical bills. Have money left over to purchase gold rings, necklaces’ & etc. Even the one through there noses'.

It's simple, Democracts push for equality.

In the 1950's and 60's it was Democrats that pushed for equal rights for African Americans. It was then that many conservative Democrats at the time switched to the Republican party because they felt that the Democrats no longer represented their views. Demorcats are not giving tax cuts to the nation's rich. The Democrats are for change for the better America.

That's a good question. It seems to me on political terms, black people stab those who want to help in the back. Look at Abraham Lincoln. He was a Republican and he freed them from slavery. You would think blacks would like Republicans, wouldn't you?

It is simple becuase Republicans hate blacks and Demorcrats want them to have more rights and there are more blacks in that party. Mo blacks Mo money, I got money in the bank!

There programs for benefit's for the poor.

the democrats create huge social programs promoting keeping the poor where they are...free food a monthly gov. check...handouts...the dems say they want to fight poverty??? what a gigantic joke.

Democrats have a history of promising handouts to the black community. All such social programs have failed.
