A Different Way to Think

I am definitely on the Herman Cain bandwagon right now.  I’d never really read his story or listed to his ideas until recently, but he definitely creates some intrigue.  I’ve been among the group that hoped to see a Palin or a Trump earn the nomination early on.  I saw Cain as a fringe candidate with no chance at all like an Alan Keyes or Jessie Jackson.  But then my mind was changed when I saw something unexpected.

Let’s face it, unless we’re weak minded followers we’re all bigoted about something we strongly believe in.  It may be religion, or politics, or even sports.  There is value in bigotry in protecting the things we value and sparking debates that may enlighten us to some things we may not know about.  It is important, however, to be aware of one’s bigotry and know when to just let it go.  Let’s face it, Obama could have gotten way more done if he spent more time working and less time using angry rhetoric to try to shame Republicans into doing what he wants by trying to turn America against them.

Since I had no phone to listen to in my car today I had time to think (2 hrs) on the way to and from work. Thinking back I was always somewhat conservative but didn’t know it.  My experiences working a series of bad jobs helped me discover myself politically in an environment where my race blindly follows one viewpoint and doesn’t nurture or support the opposing views.

It’s sad that 99% of black people are democrats but for no real reason.  They get caught up in the retoric and believe they are entitled to be propped up by the government to make up the achievement gap instead of getting there through personal responsibility.  Not only do Democrats reinforce the entitlement and try to mandate it through the government, but they continue to depress black people by assuming that our worst enemy isn’t ourselves, but some pale skinned boogeyman with a Republican party membership.

Just two years ago there was a huge shift in American politics.  Independents and the normally non-voting black population got on the side of Obama and won the White House, while democrats were already in charge of Congress.  The media had all but sounded the death toll on conservativism, saying that America had changed too much for Republicans to win.    There was a small rumble from the Tea Party movement which feared what a Democratic led government was planning to do.  Fortunately for Conservatives rather than being intelligent and transparent with the agenda, the Obama regime decided to ram everything thru Congress early so that once the laws were made we could see how great they would be.  Of course if you take those kinds of chances even when passing something that America doesn’t appear to want like the healthcare reform, you get people mad at you.  That anger has forced the independant voters back to the right.  Add that to the fact that black voters don’t seem to care to vote in the other races when there isn’t a black candidate and the conservative movement has gotten a shot in the arm from the uber liberal president.
