Definitely, this whole notion of lookin for the good white folk is an economic, political and intellectual dead end

Fighting over a white liberal program that doesn't even work is a perfect example of this dead end
Cosign. Additionally, black people need to join the military and be trained. The more black people in the military, the more political power we have.

political power comes from wealth not from the military and it doesnt come from voting for "good white folks" either

and yeah more black people should join the military to learn military skills

during this same exact time, Biden and clinton were building the prison industrial complex

Joe Biden’s Role in ’90s Crime Law Could Haunt Any Presidential Bid

so if the only thing you get from this is that black people need to vote for democrats, you learned the wrong lesson and it shows you havent progressed intellectually since the 90's

its amazing that people cant properly read the phrase 'split the vote'

split the vote doesnt mean vote republican, split the vote means......split the vote

our goal shouldnt be to find the least racist politician, our goal should be to control politicians and control politics

one guy is running racist ads, the other guy is building a system to incarcerate you, im not following whats the difference

looking back at the 90s its obvious that simply voting for the least racist person isnt gonna cut it in 2015, if anybody is still using that paradigm or formulation to analyze politics they obviously havent progressed intellectually

Split the vote is a half baked idea, but not entirely without merit. A better idea would be to build a Super PAC similar to the IPAC, that advocates a clearly defined agenda for black people in this country.

I would support and contribute to such a PAC. A well funded and well coordinated PAC can "split" financial support to various candidates as long as they support aspects of an agenda that benefits black people.

But the notion that we should arbitrarily "split the vote" without proper coordination or concessions from a party whose base is openly resentful to black people is not a winning idea.
