BLACK CONSERVATIVES MAKE THEIR VOICES HEARD
…AFTER POLL SHOWS ROMNEY SUPPORT AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICANS AT ZERO PERCENT
A new poll conducted by NBC and the Wall Street Journal shows that support for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney among black people stands at an incredible zero percent. Nada. Zilch. Zero.
But in order for the poll to be accurate, one would have to assume that there are indeed “zero” African-Americans that stand with Mitt Romney. And while the folks at NBC or WSJ certainly aren’t obligated to justify their findings, they would likely have a hard time doing so to the sea of African-Americans who took to Twitter to express their support for Romney after feeling as if they were being ignored — or better yet, as if they don’t exist at all.
Thus the #BlackConservativesForMittRomney hashtag was born. Here are some of the best:

NBC pollsters who say 0% of African-American voters support Romney. Seen the 60s sign reading “I Am A Man”?? #BlackConservativesForRomney”

And, of course, such lockstep support of Zero is not considered racist…

I’m guessing that they did probably find a handful of scattered Romney supporters but that it was regarded as “statistically insignificant” and rounded off to the nearest percentage which was 0.

It helps if you actually poll some black people, rather than the residents of the Upper East Side or the Kennedy Compound neighbors.

While I’m heartened by the rise of black conservatives, Obama will still get at least 75%, if not more, of the black vote simply because he is black.

Every day they (the msm) are fooling less and less. But unfortunately Barry will probably get most of the black vote. He’ll also get nearly 100% of the dead vote too.
I love it when Black people realize that the sharptons and jacksons are doing so very much to harm them today.

The Democrats are playing dirty, to the point of funding the Republican candidates they think they can beat:

Good for them! Many black people think they will lose their cultural identity if they identify with conservatism – that’s a myth.
An excellent example is the lady wearing her “Sunday go to meeting” outfit at the Tea Party Express Black Conservatives Press Conference in the clip on this thread. Great job, Horrorman18! Watched the clip some time ago, and it’s a perfect reference.
