The truth is, if you are poor, or in the underclass.....political system we currently have cannot really help you. You may be able to get healthcare, or a phone, or maybe housing, but you will not make it out of poverty. And if you do, one of the exceptions. Capitalism is what remains regardless of who wins an election.

shyt on capitalism when capitalism provides everyone including the 'underclass' a chance to climb the economic ladder.

They are habitual Republican voters, they wont vote for any Democrat even if the party adopts the economic populism the left fantasize about. Candidates like Matt Bevin openly run on gutting welfare and still get votes from white lower classes who rely on it. Even Mitt won them despite the 47% comment. The reason caricatures of poor people like welfare queen works is that race is zero-sum to many in those communities, the pitch the GOP uses is that their money is being used to fund these undeserving people. Even FDR excluded professions dominated by African Americans at the inception of social security. People like to think groups vote for some economic self interest over what they consider their most important values plus party ID is just a stronger indicator of voting pattern in a partisan environment.

I asked why Black folks should believe Hilary will HELP us.

His response didn't even address Hilary at ALL. He rattled off a list of reasons why he feels Trump will HURT us.

It's disingenuous to ask Black people to vote out of fear but not understand how whites can't be manipulated to do the same thing.

DUMMY YOU JUST HIJACKED THE OPS THREAD WITHOUT ADDRESSING HIS QUESTION :mindblown:

Idiot changed the topic and then goes off accusing people of not giving a response YOU want for your deflected topic

Ain't that a bytch:dahell:

He asked a question and I explained the behavior.

It's all about fear.

Actually she has promised to bring back the 90's...You know, that decade in which mass incarceration of black men hit an all-time high and the beginnings of millions of black people getting subprime mortgages that led to the loss of their homes a couple years later
That's very disingenuous of you. Hillary has acknowledged and pledged to correct the mistakes of the past by working for criminal justice reform while Trump sees no problem with it. She has actual policies and in depth knowledge of this area while there has been absolutely ZERO from him on this. That's because only thing we hear from Trump in regard to criminal justice is more police, more prisons, and the continuance of mass incarceration. In fact Trump attacked Hillary for her position on reduced mandatory minimums using the coded language of the past--in 2016.
