“These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference.”––Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D., Texas), 1957

From The Black Sphere:

It’s just as well that Nixon put a stop to black representation at the university level, since blacks have one of the lowest college and university entry rates in America.  That’s certainly not Nixon’s fault.  It is black peoples’ fault for continuing to support Democrats like Nixon, however.  It’s pretty clear that Democrats care more about the teacher’s union, than they do about educating blacks!

For the few lucky blacks who do manage to dodge the Democrat gauntlet of underachievement established for blacks and who manage to enter higher education in Missouri, it is refreshing to know that there will be nobody to represent them.  Nobody to represent what unfortunately are the unique problems for blacks in education, like chronic underachievement.

What’s the big deal anyway?  White Democrats have proven that they know more about “the black condition” than blacks. They must, since they get 95% of the black vote, the reward being for black achievement. Blacks lead, per capita, the highest high school dropout rates, lowest high school graduation rates, lowest college entrance rates, and lowest college graduation rates. Democrats in Missouri have done such a great job in the St. Louis school system that it ranks right up there with San Quentin, Ralway, and Pelican Bay–some of America’s best penitentiaries.

Jay Nixon is demonstrating what white Democrat politicians have showcased for years:  Total disdain for blacks.  Nixon happily accepts the black vote during election time—knowing that vote is a given—then completely disregard blacks after the polls close. Read more…
