Really? Diabetes is an epidemic in the African-American community. If you don't know this, look it up. |

Blacks are more cost sensitive and have higher rates of diabetes than whites From the cdc: For both men and women, prevalence of diagnosed diabetes was highest among American Indian and Alaska Native adults (13.6%), followed by non-Hispanic Black adults (12.1%), adults of Hispanic origin (11.7%), non-Hispanic Asian adults (9.1%) and non-Hispanic White adults (6.9%) (Appendix Table 3). |

| I think it is important that remember that many black people are very conservative traditionally. Black churches can be considered some of the most conservative places in America. Also, there is certainly a competitive dynamic between black communities and growing communities of Hispanics and Asians. Depending on where these polls are taken can have a huge impact. |

Haley was schooled in the south. You know how they teach the civil war, right?
It really is a sad statement on our country in 2023 that we still have a huge part of the citizenry denying that slavery was a major reason for the war. I also find it laughable that DeSantis is calling her out, when his state has walked back the talk of slavery in history books. This upcoming election really just might be my last straw with this idiocracy. |

We do not have a "huge" part of our citizenry denying that slavery was the primary cause of The Civil War. That's similar to saying there is a huge portion of our citizenry that don't believe there was a Holocaust in WW2. You are watching too much cable news and/or assuming that a few loud mouth radical politicians are representing the beliefs of a majority of their electorate if you truly believe a significant percentage of the US population does not acknowledge slavery as the primary cause of The Civil War. There are bigoted idiots walking around among us but they aren't anywhere close to making up a huge portion of our population. |

our policies continue to screw low wage African Americans. and we have known this for decades. people need good jobs to thrive in our capitalism The 1980-2000 immigrant influx, therefore, generally 'explains' about 20 to 60 percent of the decline in wages, 25 percent of the decline in employment, and about 10 percent of the rise in incarceration rates among blacks with a high school education or less Almost everybody knows that in the past 40 years, the real wages and job prospects for low-skilled men, especially low-skilled minority workers, have fallen. And there is evidence, that a rising tide of immigration is to blame. Now, a new NBER study suggests that immigration has more far-reaching consequences than merely depressing wages and lowering employment rates of low-skilled African-American males: its effects also appear to push some would-be workers into crime and, later, into prison. https://www.nber.org/digest/may07/effects-immigration-african-american-employment-and-incarceration When the supply of workers goes up, the price that firms have to pay to hire workers goes down. Wage trends over the past half-century suggest that a 10 percent increase in the number of workers with a particular set of skills probably lowers the wage of that group by at least 3 percent. Immigration redistributes wealth from those who compete with immigrants to those who use immigrants—from the employee to the employer. https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/09/trump-clinton-immigration-economy-unemployment-jobs-214216/ Democrats have abandoned US workers. |
