why the stigma for black republicans

Answer 2

Ever since Nixon crafted the "Southern Strategy," the GOP has taken advantage of the Dems' commitment to civil rights to rally white racists. So the GOP is now the political home of white racism in the US. It's no surprise that the great majority of African Americans are repulsed by their fellow AAs who promote racism.

Answer 3

EDIT: Im what you would call a traditional republican..Todays republicans are neo-conservatives which I disagree with.Ron Paul holds the views of a traditional republican.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Black republicans typically have a lot of hate for the black community themselves. They are even more adamant about attacking the black community then people like Limbaugh or Hannity, ussually promoting the ideology that you must hate yourself and/or everything about other black people to ever gain any real success in life.
