Those are black people that do their own thinking, they don't allow others to do their thinking for them. |

So, to get this straight. They do their own thinking...by following the Republican political party? So if you follow everything the Democrats say then you're brainwashed but if you do exactly as the Republicans say you're "thinking for yourself"? Isn't that the exact definition of irony? And hypocrisy? Think about it... You either follow the Democrats and not think for yourself or follow the Republicans...and not think for yourself. Or you can follow the Party of US were you're your own leader and follower and you REALLY do whatever the hell you want. I'll vote for everybody or I'll vote for nobody. I'll even vote for myself. Now THAT'S truly what I call thinking for oneself. Edited by T.I.M., Oct 15 2011, 01:33 PM.

If a person is telling you to vote Republican isn't that NOT thinking for yourself? |
