95% of the black electorate voted for Obama. Let's look at what he and the Democrats have done for them. And btw....all data is from Nate Silver....hardly a right wing darling.
1. Blacks are 250% more likely to live in poverty than whites. This has accelerated under the Obama Presidency.
2. The average median household income for blacks is 40% less than whites. This is down 10% since the year 2000.
3. Median family income for all Americans has dropped every year since 1999. It is down 8.7% over that time frame. This loss of income has accelerated under Obama.
There are many more facts...but you get the idea. Obama and the Democrats have not only failed to help blacks (or the rest of us) but have made things far worse. So can anyone explain the almost blind support black Americans have for the Democrat Party? Anyone?
Here is a key quote.
Big racial gaps remain: The median income of an African-American household was $34,600 in 2013, more than 40 percent less than the median non-Hispanic white household. The race gap has been little changed in recent years. It peaked at about 45 percent in the 1980s and narrowed to 35 percent in 2000, but has since lost much of that ground. More than a quarter of blacks live below the official poverty line, compared to 10 percent of whites.

Just a couple quick questions for you.
1. Why are every one of these threads about the left supposedly mistreating blacks started by lily white posters whose other posts are filled with extremely insulting and degrading remarks about blacks? All your so called concern for the treatment of blacks by the left doesn't hold much weight when you also say their mistreatment is deserved in other threads.
2. Why don't you just admit that you don't really care about blacks. While like minded teabaggers will certainly agree with everything you write, nobody else will.
Your mind-reading abilities are extraordinary.
You don't know what I think. You have no idea. I sincerely want a color blind society. The obsession with race needs to stop.
Not mind reading, just post reading. Everybody who has read your writings knows what you think, and it's a little late now to try to hide from it. You don't actually think anyone who is truly concerned about race relations will give your rant a second thought do you?
More butt hurt. I don't give a shit what you think. When someone resorts to bullshit to avoid discussing the facts it tells me all I need to know. Now go play in a place where everyone will agree with you. Adults are trying to have a real discussion.
Did I hit a nerve there? Will you answer the questions or stomp off pouting?
