From DC Thornton:

Democrats have always touted their moral authority on being tolerant and understanding of blacks and the poor,just as long as you're not like Ted Hayes, a respected homeless advocate who happens to be a black Republican.

This kind of idiocy is what really gets to me about some Democrats. Ted Hayes is a decent, kind, man who is doing good in his community. Do I think Blacks should participate in Republican Politics, of COURSE. The only way to change a party is from the inside. While I dissagree with many Republican and Conservative principles, I respect those blacks who have a sincere desire to work for change within the Republican Party.

The idea that someone who has done so much good, would be punished for his political affiliation is counter to what the Democratic Party is suppossed to be about.
