    That's a lie! I am black and republican. But I won't be voting in this election for our candidate. This year, I will be third-party supporter.

    Blacks have voted democratic for a long time. I say if it's not working try something else. When I registered to vote in high school I automatically registered democrat because my grandmother who raised me and my entire family were democrats. I was not old enough to vote in 08 but in 2012 I did not vote democrat. By that time I had realized that my beliefs did not align with that of the Democratic Party. Now in 2016 I have recently officially changed my political party to republican. I can't speak for all blacks but most of my family seems to vote democrat because that is just the norm. I say just look into the issues that effect you directly and stop voting based on skin color and tradition.

      Yes vote for the party with the Southern Strategy. Which party passed Civil Rights, Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Which party started the New Deal which was the beginning of African Americans leaving the segregationist South for work that paid them a decent wage for the first time and it began the exodus of African Americans in the GOP leaving to join the Democratic party. If its just religious reasons well done, this is the party whose main support comes from Southern Baptists, the same church that supported the Confederacy and later segregation. Slaves brought up by their masters and forced into that new Southern US version of Christianity left to form their own churches and the anti abolitionist Northerners formed their own church because Southern Baptists broke away over the North supporting the ordination of black missionaries. The Church overwhelmingly also supported segregation. Yes vote for the party of the Southern Strategy and please tell me one bill the GOP has passed that helped African Americans, better yet that helped poor people full stop.

    I don't agree with Republican policies, but I love living in a Republican state. Much lower crime rates, low taxes, and a much better quality of life.

      @u2good2b4gotn yeah but what about those property taxes and the cost of rent? Thru the roof! That's the only thing about living in a wealthy city......The city knows it and they want their cut!

    I'm a registered Independent. Both Dem and Repub parties have issues, but I still think the Republican party is worse, particularly in regard to women's rights, LGBTQ rights, voting rights, etc.

      It always puzzles me when people say this. Im an independent who votes mostly republican.

    Wow. This one video is very biased. Voting is important and we should encourage people to vote for whoever truly represents them. We, American Citizens, should support Rank Choice voting so people can pick as many representatives who represent their local/national issues.

    One thing I've noticed about these videos is that I do a lot of the things that black people apparently don't do. I'm a black Republican, and trust me when I say that I'm fucking proud of it!
