The statistics on this are very lopsided and very stable. The question is why?
"Trends in party affiliation among black voters have been largely stable over recent years. Overall, 87% of black voters identify with the Democratic Party or lean Democratic, compared with just 7% who identify as Republican or lean Republican."

Let's begin at the beginning. Lincoln freed the slaves and Lincoln was a Republican.
Next you have the civil Rights act of 1964 which democrats filibustered and Republicans passed.
Democrats until very recently had a man who was a KKK Grand Wizard (whatever that is) in the Senate.
All this leaves this old white guy wondering just WTF is the reason blacks are so loyal to the DNC. Anyone care to explain?
