Has anyone read "Why I am a Black Republican" by Francis Rice?

Question

If you haven't, have 5 minutes, & you're open minded, I suggest you read it. It gets you thinking. If you don't feel like reading the whole thing, skip down to the bottom. The beginning talks about the past that we all know about already, MLK fought democrats, Republicans were for ending slavery, etc... the second half talks about CURRENT events. (Katrina, Poverty, Etc...)

Anyone that is willing to read it, what are your thoughts on it?

Here's a small excerpt from the Katrina section:

"The Posse Comitatus Act passed by Congress in 1878 prevents a president from sending federal troops to a state without the governor’s consent. The Democrat governor of Louisiana, a white woman, refused to cooperate with President Bush when the president asked for her consent to begin a mandatory evacuation four days before the storm."

Answer 1

You cannot suggest anything like this book to those who would be welfare survivors. They are entitled to live off of the backs of others. How can you believe such info in a book of this nature? This book would indicate that maybe they needed to live a different way, with different values, with a different work ethic without foods stamps and without being able to whine and cry to the gov't mammee..........
