Fla. Republican: We wanted to suppress black votes

reply to post by LDragonFire

Back in the days the kkk was big, they could represent upto 15% of the voters, so politicians would cater to them for votes. What party caters to this 15% of the population today?

and thats why its not as simple as 2 sides, we have been sold a bill of goods in the Two Party system.

So Ill write in my vote if I have to, I wont play their game any longer.

Its easy to be racist, its easy to blame a block of people for the nations problems, its hard to work together to fix these problems so we have a even playing field where everyone has rights and opportunities

There you go!!!!! Now your onto something! Let's look at who CREATES the problems instead of BLAMING who the government and MSM tells us to blame!

Notice how the MSM is blaming Social Security for our monetary woes???? Food Stamps??? It goes on and on and WE THE PEOPLE choose to fight each other rather than the criminals in our government who have stole and robbed the American people of our wealth!!!! None of these programs would really be an issue if you could look at the BIG PICTURE and realize just how much money these criminals waste without even a thought as to how it will affect our country!

I am sick of hearing how the poor people are responsible for our debt while the big corporations, banks, and government rapes the hell out of the working poor in this country!

What's worse, being coerced to vote or being coerced not to vote?

I don't see any difference.

My favorite is when they tell blacks that they will checking for warrants and making sure they don't owe back child support. That knocks out at least 75% of these people.

Racism is very much alive in this country.

Divide and conquer strategy. Republicans vs. democrats, blacks vs. whites, Christians vs. Muslims, you name it. As long as the vast majority are fighting each other the pick pockets that started the fight can slip through the crowd and clean them out.

Why are you doing this to us? Stop. 150 years from now what you are doing today will leave nothing but the continued infection upon the people. Shear evil to doom future generations to the same hatred that you hold so dear.

Not that I personally believe in the left-right paradigm, but you might want to take a look at this thread by butterCookie. She is, after all, a black woman. You might gain a little perspective from what she has to say.
Why I (a black woman) left the Democratic Party

Not just Greer in Florida...

Former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist (R) on Wednesday criticized his successor, Gov. Rick Scott (R), and other Republicans for using “shameless” tactics that suppress voting rights

Seems that former GOP in Florida, who are no longer subject to the GOP machinery are comming out about what they know....that there is a clear strategy of voter supression.

The guy was Jim Greer? The same Jim Greer who is under indictment for stealing 200,ooo bucks from the GOP? The same Jim Greer whose statement came during a 630 page deposition for his upcoming corruption trial, a trial that he says are nothing but trumped up charges leveled at him by the very same GOP that sat around saying they intended to suppress black people from voting?

Um, let's get the whole story before the hate starts, shall we?

We have multiple politicians from Florida saying the same thing. Voter ID laws were determined to be racist in nature years ago, yet voter ID laws are now the hallmark of Republican agendas. How many stories do we need from citizens that have been purged from voter rolls for no reason? Why are they always black and Democrat voters?

This guy is a politician, I feel most politicians are corrupt. I'm waiting for him to give names and dates and other information about these meetings. These should be investigated as they are serious charges.

To be fair Marco Rubio has been in the news lately.
Many want him to run as VP.
And of course Rubio is a son of Cuban Parents.
