These comments are just amazing. Why is it that liberals think that African Americans must be group thinkers and can't have independent thoughts? Those of us who are white are not monolithic, nor could we ever be, but somehow the black community is supposed to all think alike. Obviously, the "thinking alike" is supposed to be liberal and Democrat thought. I think some of the bravest Americans in the country are the conservative black Republicans. They are standing up and thinking for themselves and are being chastised by the very folks who should welcome diversity of thought.
