14 Black Republicans Vie for Congress

Human Events reports:
The day before the 2000 presidential election, I interviewed Rep. John Lewis (D.-Ga.). Lewis is a civil rights icon and a “lifelong member of Congress.” I asked him if black Americans vote 95% for Democrats year in and year out, how does that help. He said, “Martha, although I am a partisan, it doesn’t help us.”

Like former SCLC President Joe Lowry said, “The Democrats take us for granted and the Republicans just take us.”
