April 28, 201610 yr How Trump Can Win the Black Vote to Win the Election | PJ Media "The African-American community is in a miserable condition that has been getting worse for decades and has reached its nadir under Obama -- two-parent families disappearing, unemployment rates skyrocketing, incarceration rates catastrophic, drug addiction epidemic. We all look on in despair as gang members shoot children in the streets of Chicago and murders -- almost all black-on-black -- proliferate in Baltimore after years of decline." "What is to be done about all this? Hillary Clinton will certainly have plenty to say, but it will all be the same old disingenuous bilge. She can't be part of the solution because she -- like the Democratic Party she has served loyally for almost her entire life -- is part of the problem. For reasons of moral narcissism and political expediency, beginning with the Great Society that party has set up a system in black communities that has trapped African-Americans into a non-stop cycle of government dependency, turning them into what talk show host Larry Elder dubbed "victocrats," believers in perpetual victimhood, a self-fulfilling prophecy, if there ever was one. The #blacklivesmatter movement is only the most recent avatar." I have asserted in previous posts that Hillary is vulnerable with the black community. I believe a commitment to get our jobs back from China and South America, and the training and education to compete for those jobs would be well received,
April 28, 201610 yr If you believe that Trump can get those dis-satisfied with Obama and claim that Hillary is 4 more years of the same out to the polls he might have a chance. I still think it takes a massive turnout for Trump to have a chance. Many of us wont be a fan of either candidate, assuming one may just as bad or worse than the other and many of those wont vote.
April 28, 201610 yr The likelihood that white moderates and white females will abandon Trump is far greater than Hispanics and blacks abandoning Mrs. Clinton. For this PJ Media article to be credible, it needs to show that (a) such is already happening in the Democratic primary (it isn't) and (b) reputable Hispanic or black political leaders need to be echoing same (they aren't).

Black American unemployment rates, divorce and incarceration rates are at historic levels. Hillary Clinton supports free trade, radical environmentalism and guest worker programs. All JOB KILLING policies. Do you think the 1.5 million incarcerated black Americans are enjoying their clean air?
April 28, 201610 yr PP92 has been saying it for months I'm seeing zero evidence that the black or Hispanic vote is turning against either Mrs. Clinton or the Democratic Party. Will Mrs. Clinton get the numbers that supported Obama in '08 or '12? Of course not. Having said that, neither Trump nor Cruz will come anywhere close to what Romney did in '12 in garnering the white vote.
April 28, 201610 yr Forgive me if I don't trust what white people on BGP have to say about Clinton's relationship with black people. Having black acquaintances does not mean you know what's truly going on in the black community.

It's just a "hope and a prayer story" to buoy its readers. Next time there's a Trump rally on TV, count the number of minority Trump supporters -- females, too -- in the audience. Ain't many of 'em.

Many Dem talking heads are talking about how women can't stand Hillary. I find this interesting.
April 28, 201610 yr I dismissed Trump's chances to win the Republican nomination and he is well on the way to proving me badly wrong, so I won't be that surprised if he does not somehow turn around some of his numbers with women and minorities.

April 28, 201610 yr I know why Latinos would vote for her, But i cant understand why Blacks like her. She will help the blacks like I will help rob a bank.

Next time there's a Trump rally on TV, count the number of minority Trump supporters -- females, too -- in the audience. Ain't many of 'em. General Election Polls in April are irrelevant. Black America supporting Hillary amounts to insanity, and here are the reasons : 1) Hillary's support of free trade has exported jobs in staggering numbers, especially from rust belt states, where urban black unemployment is staggering. 2) Hillary's support of open borders allowing anyone to walk into this country and compete in the job market with citizens. 3) Hillary's support for mass incarceration which has resulted in 1.5 million incarcerated black Americans. 4) Hillary has become a NEO CON. This means she supports Military Intervention for the purposes of nation building and changing of foreign governments. Black America will contribute heavily to casualties for conflicts that are not relevant to this nations security. 5) Hillary's platform is generally one that kills jobs. In addition to her free trade support, she supports radical environmental regulation and guest worker programs. A Hillary Clinton Presidency guarantees the continuation of the "Nanny State", economic depression, and mass incarceration for Black America.

Romney got 7 percent of the black vote in '12. I seriously doubt if Trump cracks double digits.

What year does this person think we're in? Black unemployment has been on a steady decline for years and is below what it was in 2004. Incarceration? That's been an issue since President Clinton's get-tough-on-drugs bill was passed in the 90s. Two parent families declining? Yeah - since the 70s.
