I cannot imagine a Democrat voting for Trump under any circumstance EXCEPT to get him on the ballot in November so Sanders or Clinton will win.

We see a lot about how Trump is really not a conservative, but I have seen NOTHING online or in real life indicating that any Democrats actually want Trump for their president.  In fact, the reverse is true; they vilify him.

That's interesting.

Maybe some grass roots Dems figure they will be just as well off with either Hillary or Bernie, so they  forego voting in the Dem primary and vote in the Repub to stick us with Trump.

I think Obama's end game is to return Gitmo to Cuba.  That would be consistent with everything else he has done.

Stop right there.  I reject the assumption you make that budget cuts inevitably harms anyone.

Do you believe that budget cuts absolutely must hurt someone?

They hurt the government employees who don't get hired or promoted or pay increases.

How in-touch are you with the thoughts of the Black Community?

My DIL is a high school science teacher, and my son counsels underpriviledged people on employment opportunities.  They both see a lot of this "acting white" crap.

Where you get that BS from?  I attended public HS in the inner-city and no one was ostracized for being Honor Roll, perfect attendance or any other superlative.  I recall quite vividly that excellence was celebrated and names were called over the PA system every morning for accomplishments.

How old are you?

This has changed.

I came across this article this morning and just HAD to share it, as it bears on the discussion in this thread.
 

Tyson made two good points: 1. He faced the soft bigotry of low expectations, as explained by George Bush, and 2. he had the fortitude and desire to overcome that.

Tyson is wrong about climate change, but he is a darn good astro guy.

I know, I'm super duper cleaver, right?? 

Wally, or Beaver?

Thank for your comments John. What do you have to say about those Blacks not on welfare? There are a lot of us who are gainfully employed. In what ways has liberalism hindered us?

The same way it hinders all hard-working, successful people:  by over-taxing the fruits of their labor, over-regulating their efforts, imposing stupid control over them such as Obamacare, and in general trying to regulate their lives.
