Ben Carson Says He Can Win The SC GOP Presidential Primary 

By Schuyler Kropf, May 26, 2015, PostAndCourrier.com

Presidential candidate and retired doctor Ben Carson said Tuesday that he has enough appeal to win the South Carolina primary and plans to branch out beyond the tea party-aligned Republicans who support him the strongest.

“I hope my audience is everybody, not any particular faction,” Carson said Tuesday during a stop in Charleston.

“I think people are going to be, hopefully, listening to the candidates and hopefully listening to the solutions that the candidates have and making decisions based on that,” he said. “And if that’s the case, then I think I have an excellent opportunity.”

Carson’s comments came following a meeting of the Greater Lowcountry Republican Club on James Island where he was the guest speaker.

Carson, who won the straw poll at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in Oklahoma City over the weekend, said one reason he is running is because of the decline of morality in America.

“We’re turning into a country where we are progressively throwing away all of our values for political correctness,” he said.

WaPo: GOP Winning Support Of Black Americans--Turning Point

Chelsi Henry, Nov. 7, 2014, Washington Post

On Tuesday night, Americans caught a glimpse of the Republican Party’s future. Mia Love, from Utah, became the first African-American Republican woman to be elected to Congress. Will Hurd became Texas’ first African-American Republican* congressman since Reconstruction. And Tim Scott, from South Carolina, became the first African-American senator from the South since Reconstruction. He’s also the first to be elected to both the House and Senate.

These historic wins mark a turning point in the Republican Party’s relationship with African Americans. Despite the prevailing narrative, it’s clear that diversity exists and is growing in the GOP. There are early signs that African Americans, tired of being taken for granted, are looking for alternatives to the failed policies of the left. And the Republican message is resonating. We are seeing new faces and new leaders in the GOP. After the election, African-American news sites The Grio and The Root were among the first media outlets to acknowledge the historic wins of Scott and Love. This support is a step in the right direction. African Americans can see that the GOP does not just talk about supporting them, but also has diverse representation in Congress providing solutions to the challenges we face.

Is This The Beginning Of The End For Blacks And Dems?

Keli Goff, Nov. 3, 2014, The Daily Beast

Clearly there were black voters before Barack Obama, but to put in context the difference between black voter turnout in the Obama era and black voter turnout before, consider this. In 2008 two million more black voters showed up at the polls than had four years before. Among young black voters ages 18 to 24, there was an 8 percent increase in turnout from 2004 to 2008, the highest increase among any demographic, across racial, gender and generational lines.

In a phone interview, Andra Gillespie, a Political Scientist based at Emory University said, “People historically thought black voters participated in the political process and voted because they had confidence in their own ability to effect change in the political system, irrespective of whether they believed politicians cared about what they thought. But there was some work that came out about 25 years ago that suggests that’s not true and that in fact that blacks feel empowered when they see blacks in positions of power.” Gillespie explained that this research did find a connection between the number of likely black voters and black elected leaders.

Dem Party Fears Realized--Young Black Men Defect To GOP --19% young black men, 18-29 voted GOP vs 2% black females

May 23, 2014 Black Republicans , Democratic Party 0 Comments


By Paul M. Winters, May 20, 2014, Dignitasnews.com

Beset by scandals on both the national and statewide level, Democrats find themselves in danger of historic losses in the 2014 midterms, as in addition to the “angry white males” they find themselves facing a new threat, that of the “angry young black male.” A growing trend of young black males defecting to the GOP has caused fears among Democratic Party officials who have largely ignored the concerns of a constituency that has been loyal for decades.

It is ironic that with the election of the first African-American President, the party that garners roughly 90% of the black vote finds itself in danger of losing the young men of this community, not just for one election cycle, but for generations to come. Despite its rhetoric and numerous ties to the African-American community, young black black males have become increasingly frustrated with a party they feel promotes policies which emasculate them and offer few opportunities for them to achieve the American dream. Much of the elation that came from Obama’s historic political achievement turned into an eye-opening experience for many black men, who noticed the gulf between the feel-good rhetoric of Democrats as hollow as inner-city unemployment has grown during the tenure of the first black President.

“I’ll be honest, when Obama announced his candidacy, I was ecstatic.” notes consultant Shermichael Singleton, who as a high-school senior lobbied the local school superintendent to attend an Obama campaign rally in Dallas, TX when first denied by his principal. “It was a great experience. I applauded his speech and him for running,” although this early enthusiasm has since changed, “but I’ve been extremely disappointed.”

Following high school, Singleton attended Morehouse College, where he was instrumental in organizing the first College Republican group at the traditionally black college. He noted that this caused some raised eyebrows, but overall found support for this stance. “Singleton, we think you’re crazy as hell,” he laughed, “but brother, we support you and glad you’re standing up for what you believe.” Six years into Obama’s presidency, he may be finding more support than he ever thought he might.

While there is no dispute that the Republican Party has much work to do in order to gain support from of the African-American community, key data from the 2012 elections results do shed light on hopes that they can be more competitive in the future. President Obama won an astonishing 93% of the overall black vote against his opponent, Mitt Romney, but a closer analysis of the support the GOP standard-bearer received from young black males is enough to warrant the fears of Democratic Party leaders that their vote cannot be taken for granted. According to Pew Research exit polling, a full 19% of young black males between the ages of 18-29 cast their votes for Romney, while only 2% of black females in this age group went with the Republican.

This startling anomaly was one of the primary drivers in the White House’s unveiling of its “My Brothers Keeper” initiative, designed to help improve the opportunities of young black males in the national cities. Like many Democrat policies of the past few decades, however, it has largely been met with skepticism and yet another example of empty rhetoric designed to keep a long-time loyal constituency “in its place.”

Illinois Gov.Quinn (D-ILL) Campaign Wonders: Black Republicans Are Like Jewish Nazis? --WHAT?!!!!

April 24, 2014 Black Republicans , Gov. Pat Quinn 0 Comments
By Adam Kredo, Apr. 23, 2014, Washington Free Beacon

Illinois Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn is in some hot water with the Jewish community after his campaign tweeted—and then quietly deleted—several messages urging backers to read an article comparing black Republican voters to Jews who collaborated with the Nazis.

Chicago Sun Times readers were stunned last week to find that writer Neil Steinberg has penned a column comparing black supporters of Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner to Jews who collaborated with the Nazis against their brethren.

“As a general rule, individuals will sell out the interests of their groups in return for personal benefit,” Steinberg wrote in his column, which claimed that Rauner is buying off the black community and its leaders. “It isn’t just a black thing. Jews collaborated with the Nazis during World War II, helping them to round up their own people in the hopes they’d be the last to go.”

Quinn’s camp praised the piece and tweeted it out to supporters several times. The tweets were deleted after local Jewish community officials quietly communicated their outrage to the governor.

“If Rauner is willing to throw his own money away like this, what’s he going to do when he gets his hands on ours?” read one now-deleted tweet from Quinn’s campaign account.

The campaign also retweeted—and then deleted—a missive from Steinberg promoting his piece.

Both tweets were captured by the website Politwoops, which archives political tweets for posterity.

Some in the Chicago Jewish community say that they were outraged by Quinn’s support of the Nazi rhetoric, which was disseminated over Passover, the holiday marking the ancient Jewish people’s release from slavery.

Ben Carson: Where Are Liberals When Black Conservatives Are Harassed? --Doc, libs are the ones doing the harassing!

April 06, 2014 Black Republicans , Condoleezza Rice 0 Comments
Dr. Ben Carson
By Todd Beamon, Apr. 4, 2014, Newsmax.com

Retired pediatric neurosurgeon Dr. Benjamin Carson charged on Friday that mainstream African-American organizations are silent when black Republicans or conservatives are criticized.

"Where are the black liberals when atrocities occur?" Carson, who is weighing a GOP candidacy for the White House in 2016, asked talk-show host Roland Martin on "NewsOne Now" on the black cable network channel TV One. "Organizations like the NAACP …, do you ever see them coming out in support of a conservative black person?"

Carson noted that former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has been the subject of protests by student and faculty at Rutgers University since she was selected as commencement speaker in February. They charge that Rice supported torture and lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

Editor's Note: Dr. Ben Carson: It's Time to Stand Up - Get His Vision for America

Carson, 62, who retired last summer as chief of pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, said that the protests have occurred simply because Rice "was a conservative."

The university has affirmed its decision on Rice speaking the May commencement.

Carson himself has come under fire for saying Obamacare was "the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery" and for likening the United States to Nazi Germany.

With his slavery remark, Carson told Martin that he was "not trying to make light of slavery. What I was trying to get people to understand is what is happening with a government program that takes control of the most important thing you have, which is your health."

"'Republicans and Blacks'" --"The issue on which Democrats...have the least room to maneuver, is school choice."

March 25, 2014 Bill de Blasio , Black Republicans 0 Comments
By Thomas Sowell, Mar. 25, 2014, Townhall
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.
