Rather than castigating blacks for doing what many other Americans do and then writing them off, how about making better, more persuasive arguments about how the GOP's policy preferences will benefit them?

"America traditionally represents the greatest possiblity of someone's going from nothing to something. Why? In theory, if not practice, the government stays out of the way and lets individuals take risks and reap rewards or accept the consequences of failure. We call this capitalism-or at least, we used to."
Written by a black man who gets it, Larry Elder.
The opportunity is there for anyone who wants to capitalize on it, black or white.
