Tuesday Night Racism
Why do blacks continue to support Democrats?
Remember Ronald Reagan’s story about the kid who had to shovel a huge pile of manure? He went about it with such joy he was asked why and said, “With all that manure, there’s got to be a pony in there somewhere.”
The pony hidden in slavery is the fact that it was the ticket to America for black people. I have long urged blacks to consider their presence here as the work of God, who wanted to bring them to this raw, new country and used slavery to achieve it. A harsh life, to be sure, but many immigrants suffered hardships and indignations as indentured servants. Their descendants rose above it. You don’t hear them bemoaning their forebears’ life the way some blacks can’t rise above the fact theirs were slaves.
It makes sense. God needed a way to transport some people, thought about having them build an ark and said, "No wait, I've got a brilliant and mysterious idea," and then enslaved a race of people for a few centuries. You can't argue with that logic.
