Blacks Pastors-are telling their flocks to stay home on Election Day

[Nova78]

African-American Christians waver over vote | General Headlines | Comcast
Some black clergy see no good presidential choice between a Mormon candidate and one who supports gay marriage, so they are telling their flocks to stay home on Election Day. That's a worrisome message for the nation's first African-American president, who can't afford to lose any voters from his base in a tight race.

The pastors say their congregants are asking how a true Christian could back same-sex marriage, as President Barack Obama did in May. As for Republican Mitt Romney, the first Mormon nominee from a major party, congregants are questioning the theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its former ban on men of African descent in the priesthood.

In 2008, Obama won 95 percent of black voters and is likely to get an overwhelming majority again. But any loss of votes would sting.

Bye-Bye Obama............

GOP Memo Admits Plan Could 'Keep Black Vote Down' - Los Angeles Times

I can see why you dont want black people to vote.

Its a old republican tradition

I think these homophobic pastors will find that there are fewer single issue voters in their flocks than they'd like. Fear of having John Bolton in a position of authority will scare them more than two consenting, tax paying adults, getting legally married.

First, democrats stopped them for voting because THEY WERE BLACK. REpublicans dont want them voting, BECAUSE THEY ARE DEOMCRATS.....now figure out the two.....and see which one is actually logical and normal and which one is racist....hmmmmm

 

[Truthmatters]

but the dems gave that one up.

All because the republicans grabed the mantle

 

[Truthmatters]

You used to be the party of Lincoln.

now your the party of racists

Really you believe that?
So why did Obama lost 30-50% of the vote in West Virginia to a guy in jail, in the DEMOCRAT primary?

Why didnt republicans dominate local elections until this decade?


Seems like an awful lot of democrats didnt like the civil rights bills.....including Al Gore's father.......yeah learn history first.

 

[Rozman]

Look if Blacks don't want to get the photo ID and they want to stay home...
How is this the fault of the GOP?

They are called Dixiecrats and George Wallace was their last candidate. Now ALL of those racists are now GOP. That is the history.

churches and pastors that use the pulpit for political purposes should have their tax free status revoked.
