Good grief, do you SEE how the Democratic Party treats its black constituents? Don't listen to what they say, look at what they DO.

They ooze paternal contempt, and the assumption that blacks are inferior, and need to be "cared for." They treat blacks like children, or worse. They assume that the black vote is theirs whatever happens, and that any black who isn't right down the center of the leftist line is some kind of freak. They push the idea is that without the Democratic hand of government supporting them, blacks can never prosper on their own. If this isn't condescension, what is?

Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and all the rest of the "black leaders" are basically toadies for the Democrats, although they probably think the Democrats are toadies for them.

Look at any statistics on how blacks are doing in education, family life, etc. after forty years of liberal social programs.

Don't listen to the rhetoric. Look at the reality.
