Recently former Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice added her voice to those who have long been urging the
Republican Party to reach out to black voters. Not only is that long overdue,
what is also long overdue is putting some time -- and, above all, some serious
thought -- into how to go about doing it.
Too many Republicans seem to think
that the way to "reach out" is to offer blacks and other minorities
what the Democrats are offering them. Some have even suggested that the
channels to use are organizations like the NAACP and black "leaders"
like Jesse Jackson -- that is, people tied irrevocably to the Democrats.
Voters who want what the Democrats
offer can get it from the Democrats. Why should they vote for Republicans who
act like make-believe Democrats?
Yet there are issues where
Republicans have a big advantage over Democrats -- if they will use that
advantage. But an advantage that you don't use might as well not exist.
