So being a Black conservative, does that mean? Democrats Please enlighten me? ?
I am racists?
Ok then against who? – AND YES REALLY I am serious about an answer from anyone who would see it with in them to kindly give a true and honest answer to this, because I Honestly take not only great offense to the accusation but I am forever confounded by the whole republican racists thing and find it quite a queer statement. And I am no young buck(et) LOL
In all my years the people I have found those to be racists against me that is (a black female) were far from republicans and yet the statement persists and even I am labeled a bigot or racists but I always thought I was black or so my skin tone tells me (though my mind and heart tell me I am an American first)
so does that mean I am racists against white people? Don’t tell my boo if that is the case.
Yes I admit I am as far right wing as they come, I am the rule not the exception so can we forgo that defense please and move to something more concrete. I am confused by what democrats mean so
could you please elaborate on the continued statements directed at the majority of the right wing party??
Can we get a little History up in here??
Nope I got MLK jr and Soujourner truth and Harriet all on my wall - My kids know more about their black heratige than most grown ups -

I am proud of you for standing up, and telling us you're an American first. How happy I am!
I think Liberals are the most racist, and unthinking political party around. They use the race card towards anyone with values who is against their beliefs, which means to use history against others who have no responsibility for it. This includes using black Americans irresponsibly, and continuously pounding down the throats of black America that they need Democrats to have anything, be anything, be heard, because Republicans are haters of blacks, and don't believe in things like Affirmative Action, food stamps and welfare, but these things are false.
We, in reality think people should study, work hard for their needs, and freedom for everyone, not welfare for life, and sitting on ones butt, and collecting off the taxpayer for life, and we believe that the person with the highest SAT scores has the right to enter college first, before those with lesser scores, just because they are a non-white.
Source(s): For Liberals information, it was a Republican President who set blacks free from slavery Lincoln, and a Democrat who wanted to return blacks to slavery after Lincoln's assassination...his name was Andrew Johnson, Democrat, and Lincoln's vice President. I wonder if Liberals are saying to themselves, "Who dat?" - grobLv 71 decade ago
There are different levels of black conservatives. Most blacks are conservative and vote democrat.
Then there are the black conservative talking heads who vote republican but are typically only trotted out when black issues are involved. Ask them about, say, the middle east, or nuclear proliferation, and you get nothing because they don't have any ideas, no excuse me, talking points on those issues.
Then there is the Lincoln freed the slaves and he was republican so I vote republican crowd. Honestly, they are the wackiest.
There are the occasional specialists who are conservative and, say, an economist or something so occasionally they'll say something about their specialty but are still mostly there for the "black" issues as concerns their specialty.
Then there is Alan Keyes - who is insane and in a class all his own.
Anyway, there aren't too many black conservatives who vote republican anymore.

i'm no longer prepared on democrats, yet i'm prepared on historic previous, and it would be observed that the guidelines, attitudes or maybe club of the two substantial events have replaced appreciably over the final a hundred and fifty years. The Democratic occasion that fought for State's Rights, and the Republican occasion that freed the slaves now no longer exist. Their modern-day opposite numbers are 2 very diverse beasts with thoroughly diverse ideologies.

Good for you. No, you are not racist. The same way I am not sexist despite not being a feminist (I am female). You, like I do, simply want fairness and equality for all, and I applaud you for not falling into the trap the left has laid for people of your race, just as I have not fallen into the trap of feminism laid for women.
My understanding is there are many white Republicans in the South who are still racist even today; but that simply leads me to believe that blacks in the South who are Dems are most likely just as racist against whites there (I've only been to the South for a few days one time, and wasn't really exposed to the people there since it was for a college trip, so I'm going on what I've heard from others). Racism can go both ways, after all. So I'm thinking that Dems use the image of the racist white southern Reps and paint all Reps with that same brush, which obviously isn't fair.

First of all GOD was the racist, not any of us here on earth, as he separated all the people, Still God made each and every one of us!! You sound like you are on a good path of life. I am also an extreme right wing person, for GOD and country, If you walk with Jesus, you never walk alone, doesn't matter what others say, You got Jesus in your heart guiding you, you will never go off the path!!! And if you voted for who you think will do us the best, then in your heart, you must be happy!!!

Many of the people that post here are pretty much retarded, so dont take it seriously. History is lacking in almost every posting, I think many of these liberal posters which I have nothing against would be shocked if they knew the truth. For instance that republicans freed the slaves and how there is a substantial amount of black republicans.

They will try to make people feel guilty for being conservative in any way they can. They say whites not voting for Obama is racist, even though they do not agree with his beliefs. They will use the insult of racism as a way to guilt anyone and everyone to vote their way.
EDIT:
Right Wing media does not claim he is racist, many people here on YA claim he is. I have the same problem, many Democrat YA members claim I am racist because I am Republican. It is just a cheap shot.
To the person who said he is selfish because he is Republican, he is not necessarily selfish. Republicans are not selfish they just believe in working for money not just having it given to them. Republicans donate more to charity than Democrats, we believe in helping people help themselves. We just do not like the government forcing us to just hand people money while they waste the vast majority of that money on themselves. Government is the most inefficient charity.
Just donate to charity, why do Democrats want the government to force us to donate to the most inefficient charity system? If we were left the money in our pockets to chose how to spend and donate it would go to the most efficient charity, the one where the greatest percent of the money donated went to those that need it.
EDIT:
Why do people call Republicans racist? We are the party of Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. We are the party who freed the slaves, and fought for civil rights, and equality. Why are we called racist, because we believe in equal opportunity, not giving one group extra rights, affirmative action.
Democrats are the racists, what do they believe that blacks can not get ahead on merit? What do they believe that blacks can not work as hard? They are not as smart? Is that why they believe they need an advantage? They do not need an advantage if they are equal. Republicans believe they are equal, that is why they do not believe in giving them an advantage.

Liberals see anyone who doesn't agree with them as racist. I read the answers that they gave and everyone of them is full of lies and hate. I'm not surprised. Follow your heart and you will be fine. These people get off on spewing hatred. Ignore them.
God Bless America and Her People!

You don't sound like a racist to me. "The mom" doesn't sound very educated as to what goes on in the Democrat (read liberal), welfare, ghetto voting farms like we have here in Chicago. The Conservatives try to break the chains of poverty and welfare but the libs wont allow it. Some day we will free them again.
