    First ask the same question without the word "republican" and see how many responses you get. :p

    There are black republicans actually. As blacks move up the wealth ladder in America a whole new class of middle and upper class black Americans is emerging.

    They had a nice show about this on TV. Just like middle and upper class whites tend to look down on trashy and dirty whites, the middle and upper class blacks are now doing the same thing to their poor and trashy black counterparts. It was a very fascinating show.

    I remember about a year ago, we did work in this mans home. When we pulled up to the house, the last thing I expected to see was a blackman inside this home. Nothing racist, it's just a very white town and VERY white neighborhood.

    We worked there for about a month. During that time he had some type of house warming party with his family. They flew in from D.C. or someplace.
    His entire family was like a black version of the partridge family. They all spoke and dressed very formal, even the teenagers. Plus the guy was one of the nicer people we have ever done work for. I have no idea if he was republican or democrat though, I guess I have gone off topic a little here lol

    Here are the pics of his house BTW


    EDIT: somehow I get the feeling brwntwn and others are going to turn this around as being racist somehow >.<

    Did you feel as if you were somehow "opressing him" as you worked for him?
    :D

    Yes. See he thought I was working for him, but really I was scoping out his home to see how in the world he stole all that money and what white man it was that he stole it from :D

    EDIT: Should I put one of those trusty </sarcasm> tags here for the dense DPers?

    I have seen this guy here, usually just lurking, doesn't post much. He was the first black president, not Bill Clinton.

    If you think Lincoln was an admirer of the black man, you better go check again. The only reason he freed the slaves was to hurt the south. I assure you, there were no black families coming to his dinner table to break bread.
