In this weeks Washington Times the newly elected Republican Party Chair, Michael Steele announced changes needed in the Republican Party: To quote: "We want to convey that the modern-day GOP looks like the conservative party that stands on principles but we want to apply them to urban-suburban hip-hop settings.” he goes on to say, " “It will be avant-garde, technically. It will come to the table with things that will surprise everyone—'off the hook.'... not cutting edge but beyond cutting edge."
OK, slow your roll Michael, because if you had not noticed, candidate Barack Obama was Black but in no way did he preach a sermon of "get-down", "jiggy and fa shizzle" to American voters. In fact Obama being competent and visionary is not only what attracted White America but these things made Black Americans proud. Wake up GOP, Black folks are and have always been attracted to class acts.
