Conservatives and Republicans do everything they can to destroy the social safety net that protects them. I could go on all day and you know it. I'll say it again. Show me an issue that people of color care about and I'll show you a throng of conservatives and Republicans opposing them at every turn all the while pretending it has nothing to do with race. People of color aren't as dumb as you think they are. They see you coming and you will never get their votes in significant numbers until you change how you treat them. @Mythos27 --- It's unfortunate you don't know as much as you think you do... http://blackrepublican.blogspot.com/2012/06/republicans-and-democrats-did-not.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wikipedia isn't the best source in the world but it's far more legitimate than a random blogpost on a partisan website. From the wiki article you didn't read " In 2005, Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman formally apologized to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a national civil rights organization, for exploiting racial polarization to win elections and ignoring the black vote." You can't re-write this history. He apologized to the NAACP because he knows what happened and what he was involved in. This tap dance doesn't work on anyone whose been paying attention.

He does no favors for the black people he supposedly supports, or the communities where they congregate. 30-40-50 years ago his argument(s) might have been valid, but no longer. If you can't get an ID in this day and age, you just aren't trying. No you didn't. You misrepresented his points and erected a straw-man around this misrepresentation.You keep saying "can't get an ID". No one is saying this man! What we're saying is that the process to getting the documentation you need and the ID itself makes it more difficult to vote than if these laws didn't exist. Not everyone has the money to buy the documents they need and pay for the ID. Not everyone has a good enough situation with their transportation where they can just drop by in their leisure time. Many use public transportation and have to stick to transpotation schedules they have no control over. Not everyone can get time off of work to go run these errands. You may think this is all insignificant but it's not to them. You're not in their shoes and it's easy for you to brush things like this off. The cherry on top is that all of this hassle would be for absolutely nothing because the problem it aims to fix does not exist because instances people cling to as proof of fraud are insignificantly rare. The point is if we want to increase voter participation, common sense tells us voting should be made easier not harder. That is of course if you actually want to increase voter turnout. Republicans don't because these voters would vote against them and they'd rather win.

One of the leaders of your party had to publicly apologize to the NAACP for doing this and all you offer to rebut this is conservative revisionist history? If they did nothing wrong then why did he have to apologize to the NAACP? You can't worm your way out of this by posting the equivalent of fake news. For as long as I've been alive minorities have had to fight you guys tooth and nail for everything. I'm definitely not saying all republicans are racist but this feeling that republicans are on the opposing side is why such few minorities votes republican. It's plain as day. Here's a prediction; when the republican party pushes for criminal justice and police reform, stops trying to dismantle the social safety net, stops pushing voter ID laws, pushes to end the war on drugs, and stops trying to destroy organizations like planned parenthood, you'll see many more minorities voting republican. If you stay in your current state of denial, nothing will change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanDuckFan Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Don't link to the brennan center and then bitch about "right wing think tanks." They claim to be non-partisan yet most of their staff's resume's resemble that of the average SJW. The notion that you should be able to vote when you can't legally take a domestic flight, open a bank account or drive a car due to lack of ID is preposterous.
