re: A Republican who's not a lock-step puppet? DEMAND ideological purity NOW!!!

Bowser, have you ever talked to a Black Republican. One of my longtime, and dearest friends is a Black Republican. This man, Marcus, is the most honest person I know and he wouldn’t hurt a fly. He is a teacher in a tough school district. All he wants to do is help kids. Despite his good character he says he is often chastised by other Blacks because he does not vote Democrat.

Of course, don’t take my word for it. Look at what is said about Mr. Powell and Ms. Rice, two of the most powerful people in the country. I have heard them called many things because they are not Democrats. Some have even said they are not really ‘Black’. Others have called them Uncle Toms.

Expecting a race of people to vote one way is wrong. People have free will and the right to choose who they vote for.

I have a lot of respect for Black Republicans.
