9. Hang on there
Why should a black person not have a right to be right wing? I think it's pretty raciust to automatically expect them to vote Democrat. This is an example of Democrats taking the black vote for granted.

I don't think every black person necessarily want affirmative action and special treatment. most would be more than happy to receive equal treatment. Sometimes Democrats come across (to outsiders like me) as condescending, PC elitists wanted to right the wrong of the past by positive discimination, thus creating a backlash and lack of respect for things achieved without anyone's help to get ahead.
