The whole "Blacks voting mostly Dem means being on the Dem plantation" meme, for instance. Hey look, I'm happy to acknowledge Black Conservatives. But the fact is, most Blacks are not Conservatives. There are reasons.

The truth is, in the main, the GOP is the party of White Men. The stats are abundantly clear on this point.

True, I'd say that most blacks aren't Republican voters or Conservatives as you say and the stats are abundantly clear on that point. I was born a white American and there ain't much I'm able to do about that or able to change about that fact. I'm not going to darken my skin, discard my heritage or my values in order to relate and identify with you or any other black person. I'm sure  the average black American's values aren't much different than my values.

Uh,  some cream has hidden coffee.  Some coffee has hidden cream.  

Cream with hidden coffee here ...

Funny, ha ha! I don't know how accurate those tests are; where do you draw the line regarding nationality? At what generation? Go back farther and we're all the same anyway.... We're ALL Africans.....

With me, I know my ancestry going back to thrice great all the way around; no coffee. However, my great great great grandmother was simply known as Mrs. A. Lincoln (married to Abraham's distant cousin), with no other info, so (ironically perhaps) you never know. Those people in my family tree came from the Ohio Valley, so not that far away from the plantations; one never knows....
