As I travel across the country speaking to many groups, I find the same common concern among black Republicans and the black clergy that supported George W. Bush in 2004. Most are not convinced that the Republican Party really feel that it's worth the effort to go after the black vote, and others feel the party do not want or feel that they need the black vote to win.
They cite several reasons for their belief. Please let me share a few of them with you.
They learned that the Bush/ Cheney campaign only spent $2,000,000 to reach black voters during the 2004 election but spent several times that amount on political consultants.
During the campaign, the Republicans courted the black clergy and convinced many that Republicans really wanted to develop a long term relationship with the black community.
