1. Blacks in the Tea Party are like Black Republicans
Any Black who thinks they are truly welcome by the Tea Party or the Republican Party is a confused Black...at best.

They had better wake up & recognize the results of 1964 & 1968. The Dixiecrats largely switched teams.
Besides the fabled party of Lincoln died by the end of Reconstruction.
Reality was Blacks never really had a party to truly get behind until the 60s.
Sadly it's all for nothing today & perhaps there's no current party we can get behind either.
