Read the OP, didn't read the thread, but...
I find it funny when Conservatives do everything in their power to not help get blacks educated, but then act surprised when they vote for Democrats at a much higher rate than other groups. It's the proverbial shooting oneself in the foot. |

The many, many online comments by conservatives, specifically Republican ones, expressing a desire to get rid of the Department of Education (minor) as well as all public education (major).
Blacks tend to be poor due to a variety of reasons which are not the fault of conservative Republicans. But get rid of--or reduce--the ability for the poor to receive "free" (meaning public) education, and blacks would be hit harder as a result of this demographic imbalance. The less educated they are, the less likely they will be to understand what it is that they're hearing when it comes to, say, economic subjects, and therefore less likely to vote for Republicans. As we have seen, the uneducated are more prone to following sound bites rather than facts. In this case, it works in the Democrats' favor. Notice how blacks who vote Republican tend to be far more educated. |

You know what, that’s the first thing I think of when I think of Herman Cain, Alan Keys and Don King; all well known Republicans. Sorry ... I couldn't help myself, |

most conservatives do not want to eliminate this system. what many conservatives want is to get the federal government out of the education business, where they have no place. education, like many government programs, should be a state issue not a federal issue. |

Someone here, who I won’t name once said when I listed education credentials … degrees don’t make you intelligent. Yea I know … I though the same thing when I heard that. But I’m happy you agree with me. |

To the original point, Scissors said educated. Cain and Keyes are very well educated. Period. You and Exotix have pet names for each other now. How cute. |

As always, when somebody presents you with facts you change the subject... You implied very clearly (above) that Cain and Keyes weren't educated. You were proven wrong. End of argument. Thanks for playing, sport. You want to talk about the electability of Cain or Keys? Start a new thread on that topic. |

I'm not sure what about that simple concept is so difficult for you to understand. You took a vacation from here once for the exact thing. Apparently you are a slow learner. |
