Mort Kondracke: Blacks Voting For Bush Have "Independent Thought"

Just wathcing FNC, and saw SPECIAL REPORT. I always love it when a group of rich white people sit around talking about how black people should vote.

Mort Kondracke was asked about if Bush will get any expansion of his share of the black vote. Kondracke said "Unfortunately he won't." He went on to say that the DEMOCRATIC PARTY has a STRANGLEHOLD on blacks, & that "only 10% of the community seems to be capable of independent thought."

Whenever I watch these pundits, I always think it's the most racist thing I've ever heard. They all think like Kondracke that Black people are incapable of making an informed decision. That all we as Democrats have to do is run a commercial & Blacks will vote for us, like waving a piece of meat in front of a dog. It's the height of condescension to say to a whole group of people, you don't understand how to make a decision, let me tell you how to think. That's FNC for you.
