Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a conservative or liberal, Republican or Democrat?

I have liberal and conservative views like most Black people. It really depends on the issue. But one thing is for sure; I am not a Republican and will never be in the same political party as Trent Lott and that Delay guy. Keep in mind though that 60 percent of Black people view themselves as either conservatives or moderates. Also, nearly 35 percent consider themselves conservatives. And yet Black support for the Democratic Party is consistently hovering around 90 percent. So for the most part, I view myself as a radical progressive Democrat, to lease a term aptly coined by Dr. Cornel West to describe his social and political ideological beliefs. With that said, it is important to note this also. Some conservative ideas are actually social value systems inherent in most of us and not the intellectual property of republican solons and conservative behaviorists. It is no secret that there are many Black people who support conservative ideas, say welfare reform and personal responsibility, yet remain solid Democrats. So I am a radical Democrat with a mix of liberal and conservative views. My frustration with Black Republicans such as Armstrong Williams, Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Ken Hamblin, Stanley Crouch, Walter Williams and others is not the conservative views they hold. Rather, it is their adamant and dour refusal to admit and confront the racist elements in their party.
