And what happened between 1865 and 1965? Any ideas? Not much of historian.....are you.
Let see
between 1865 to about 1900, blacks registered heavily Republican, first Blacks in elected to Congress were on the Republican ticket . First Black governor elected on the Republican ticket--yet the Republican narrartive is that these Black People were on the Democratic plantation.
You, and many of these "New Free Blacks" do not recount history. That is why it is too difficult for you too understand a basic truth.
Why your argument "free Blacks" carry no weight.
Why, when asked what is the difference between voting Republican versus 3rd party, I received no answer.
You can't win votes with empty promises and bad politics..
