Talk:List of African American Republicans
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Denzel Washington is a Republican?????? By what source????? Ronsin1976 02:45, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
Larry Elder is not a Republican? Then why is he listed in an article specifically called "List of African American Republicans"? If we can't get a reasonable defense for his inclusion, I intend to delete him from this list. Luke Cage 15:12, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
I'd say its pretty safe to say Juan Williams of NPR and Fox News is no Republican.
[edit] Misleading list
As it is currently organized, this so-called "List of African American Republicans" is grossly misleading. With links like Black conservatism at the bottom of the page, it clearly is implying that all African-Americans on this list are conservatives. They are not! There is a clear difference between the modern conservative Republican Party and the nineteenth Radical Republian Party to which Ida B. Wells, Booker T. Washington, and others belonged to. This list needs to be sorted and arranged by century -- if not by decade -- to let people know the truth of the matter. I sincerly doubt that Ida B. Wells would be a Republican if she were alive today. StudierMalMarburg 14:36, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
