What has the Democrat Party actually done for black Americans?
They voted against abolishing slavery and supported Jim Crow laws. For the past several decades, they have created horrible neighborhoods (e.g subsidized housing) and moved black people into those horrible neighborhoods. They encourage welfare, which makes black people less inclined to pursue an education and build a better life as they become dependent on the state. Now, they have reached the point where their leader says that black people "ain't black" if they choose not to vote Democrat. This shows how much of a threat black Americans are to Democrats when they know that *they* are the party keeping them poor and making their lives more miserable. Before you think that "black people can't get jobs 'cos racism", consider that black people CAN get jobs and that there aren't any obstacles in their way that white people also don't have. We know that if you are poor, it's harder to get an education and go to college, but it is possible and you can do it if you have the belief and determination to. Even without a college education, there are decent paying jobs that only require you to have graduated high-school.
It seems to me that the Democrat Party just want to keep black people in a cycle of misfortune and poverty so they keep voting for them, thinking there is no real way out of that cycle. If they are kept poor, they will vote for the party that professes a greater interest in giving them welfare, etc. The Democrats don't want black people to get out of this cycle because then they would realize that they have no use for the Democrat Party and they would move away from voting for them. Ideology aside, there is a reason why even moderately successful people tend to vote conservative.
Even with a basic lower middle-class income, or indeed any kind of income, black people in America are more likely to not vote Democrat.
