    It took 98% of Black women and 92% of Black men voting for Doug Jones for him to win. No other voting bloc was even remotely as allegiant. Comparatively, 79% of white men without a college degree, the most reliable voting bloc for conservatives, voted for Roy Moore.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/941699304300994560 …

    I've never said this before: Charles Barkley was right. Spot on actually. The Democratic Party relies on Black allegiance, but primarily uses it for white power. This needs to end right now. MY LATEST. https://theintercept.com/2017/12/15/charles-barkley-doug-jones-democrats-black-vote/ …

        Tbf, I doubt Roy Moore got any Jewish votes at all.

        The problem is Democrats just take the black vote for granted and think they don't have to do anything for them after they win.https://www.jacobinmag.com/2017/12/obama-foreclosure-crisis-wealth-inequality …

        As a non-American, I fully understand why ~zero black ppl vote GOP - the party is monstrous on race issues. But non-college white men going overwhelmingly GOP is both new & strange. Bill Clinton got parity w/ working class whites. Those #s + demographic shifts=Dem super majority.

        That said, YES!, Dems need to stop taking black ppl's votes for granted & deliver. But I think the sol'n to both problems is the same to a large degree: Stop focusing on minor/symbolic victories that only satisfy those not really hurting & enact meaningful wins for working ppl.

        Seems to me this is a real good indicator that we should be able to vote many more black women into Congress. (I know I know, don't yell at me, black men too)

        Why must our freedoms come down to votes? When our population has been controlled since the beginning of this Nation? It's dishonest to say majority rules when you have electoral college and forced economic inequality. I know the answer so does the world.
