Republicans DESTROYED the Black family; Racist republican policies have destroyed our community.

The Republicans have been in power for most of the past 50 years under Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush and Bush Jr. It is Republican policies that are always anti poverty, anti community, pro helping the rich and anti education that have destroyed the Black family. There is not one Republican president who has not been a racist and black communities suffered from the lack of help and bad policies that Republicans implemented.

Republican President Nixon.
Nixon hated Black people, the racist Southern strategy to blame black people for everything and scare whites into voting Republican started under Nixon. Nixon also gives the opinion that blacks will only strengthen the country in a term of 500 years, not the 50 years suggested by his aide, who must have "somewhat sort of a blind spot on the black thing because he's been in New York." Nixon says blacks need much longer, and it will only work if the good ones are "frankly, inbred."
Nixon was a bigot who cynically fanned racism, manipulated white voters and prepared the ground for the conservative assault on civil rights, affirmative action and social programs. Nixon had a dim view of African Americans, "there has never in history been an adequate black nation, and they are the only race of which this is true". He crushed the black panthers and attempted to revise the voting rights act in order to win the white southern support.

Republican Ronald Reagan
I think that the government backed drugs that flooded the ghettos under Reagan was the worse thing to happen to black people to destroy the black family. the Reagan legacy is replete with examples of disrespect and outright hostility towards African-Americans.
During the 1976 presidential campaign, he conjured up the racist and sexist image of the Cadillac-driving “welfare queen” as anecdotal evidence of fraud in the welfare system. The “welfare queen” fed into the worst stereotypes of black poverty and sexually promiscuous women.He waged an assault on labor unions, and America’s homeless grew to more than 2 million. Reagan cut programs of importance to African-Americans, slashed low-income housing under HUD, and social programs such as Medicaid and food stamps that disproportionately impacted black people. He attacked the government’s civil rights infrastructure, sought to gut the Voting Rights Act and affirmative action, and waged war on the tiny Caribbean nation of Grenada. Reagan even befriended the white supremacist government in South Africa, and vetoed a bill to impose sanctions against the apartheid regime. Congress overrode the veto.
Reagan also questioned the integrity of civil rights leaders he accused of “leading organizations based on keeping alive the feeling that they’re victims of prejudice.” And he defended Sen. Jesse Helms (R-N.C.) when the lawmaker questioned Martin Luther King’s patriotism. He tried to secure tax-exempt status for Bob Jones University, then a segregated college in South Carolina.
Reagan appointed conservative judges who were hostile to the interests of black people, such as Antonin Scalia, and appointed an enemy of civil rights, William Bradford Reynolds, to lead the Justice Department’s civil rights division. Reagan also ordered the U.S. Department of Agriculture to shelve discrimination claims by black farmers. Most of all, President Reagan gave Clarence Thomas a job, appointing the current Supreme Court Justice to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. And the African-American community has been grappling with the consequences of that unfortunate decision ever since.

Republican George Bush
The anti education policies under Bush and the crime policies that happened under George Bush that tripled the number of black men in jail had had the biggest impact on the downfall of the black community. George Bush was willing to ensure thousands of black men and women died fighting in two illegal wars Iraq and Afghanistan.
George Bush did nothing to regulate the financial industry leading to the collapse of the housing market, lending institutions, banks and financial firms ensuring that thousands of black people lost their homes, are in foreclosure or have ended up with negative equity.
Under George Bush the prison population for young black men increased three fold so we currently have close to a million black men in prison.The education standards and prosperity for black people which increased under Clinton took a sharp dive under Bush. Money was cut from student grants, school districts and education programmes leading to the high drop out rates we see in young black boys and a generation of young black people who have received a substandard education.
What did Democrats have to do with that. Just watch Black Republican ignore my post.

I always wondered why some blacks still support the republican agenda when they have made it clear that they don't want them around???

Mal you need to learn political history.

Republican Richard Nixon was the first president to implement Affirmative Action.

Arthur Fletcher is the black Republican that created Affirmative action, and he was a part Richard Nixon administration.

Richard Nixon also desegreated public schools.

Here is some more political history for you Mal.

If a poor person with no money get sick or hurt and need to go to the hospital, the hospital have to treat that person even if they don't have a penny. They are not allowed to turn anybody away.

That was passed into law by Republican Ronald Reagan in 1986. The name of that law is called the Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act.

Look at Kenneth and all his fake names out if force today praising Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon. I wonder why the Uncle Toms live in denial about their own history. Nixon was against civil rights and despised black people, the racist Southern strategy was developed by Nixon.
