Book to be will continue to bring new programs and news. You can watch all programs anytime booktv. Org. I want to welcome the book coming home, how black americans will reelect trump. Im working to get 20 of the black both in the states is the reason why i thought it would be interesting to look at, how did black americans become democra democrats, overwhelmingly supporting the gop. Back in 2016, the president is a candidate approximately 8 of the black american book. How does that compare to previous president s and how did you get 2020 . Normally of higher lower than several but its interesting to look at the strategy. First of all, gop occupy the moral high ground for 71 years andth incredibly, he decided he wanted the Republican Party, he stopped with the white house and franklin cites him as the pivotal guy who start of the exodus firm with reporting par party. However, they had some help. At the same time from 6 million other individuals left the sou south. They said hey, we cant sell within the party, we use individuals from the south. The southwest the party of slavery and segregation, etc. They launched a Public Relations so they were doing the same thing for publicans yesterday. Making sure they had that. There posting their rights. Thirtysomething, not sure exactly but 76 of the black vote in 30 states. However, the majority of democrats took that. Essentially, the short version, hawkins dropped the ball not with the Civil Rights Act or the 15th amendment. In other words, he was more concerned about that. In the right book, you wrote the following, if he went 20 or 30 of the black vote, he will take a major step towards reestablishing the Unbreakable Alliance black americans had with the Republican Party more than 70 years after the assassination of abraham lincoln. However, to do so, you must enter the division that existed between publicans and black americans since 1964. My question, how do you get there . First of all, publicans need to admit having once had the moral high ground, they lost it. As a precursor to talking about regaining the moral high ground on a range of issues including wife, School Choice, jobs, wages going up, the performance on the economy, securing the border, defending the Second Amendment and criminal Justice Reform. The second thing that has to happen is at least three who will broadcast directly to black voters in temporary radio. The Trump Campaign has committed to doing so, i believe. Finally, the big question is, what will the republic and party do . It created a vacuum where democrats can say anything aboua republicans and who. Where democratic because we are going to kill your mom and your dog. Wthe isolation has destroyed te brand which is why we say the president can turn dr strategy on its head and not the deal. In order to get the 20 . And meeting with Network Anchors last month, the president talked w about, one of the moments in the 2016 campaign in which he told African American voters, what have you got to lose . He was criticized by his campaign staffers, he thought was the right thing to do. The president told the reporters he thought that was one of the most significant moments in the 2016 campaign. You agree . I think it was a significant moment in American History or at least part of American History gop has asked black voters for their support. The president was actively campaigning for black support with that statement and the digital as he was running and certainly spending 10 million during the super bowl, touting his record with criminal Justice Reform. I believe there is now one of the women he parking now running for congress in john lewis seat in georgia. This is from the Washington Post in january. The headline black americans deeply pessimistic about the country under trump. Let me share with you with the post chart. A stark appeal to black americans during the 2016 election when he asked, what have you got to lose . Three years later, black americans rendered their product on his presidency with the deeply pessimistic assessment of their place in the Leadership Team and overwhelming majority as racist. The findings come from the Washington Post whole of africanamericans nationwide which revealed beers about whether their children will have a third child to succeed and why americans do not fully appreciate it is commission black people experience while personally optimistic about their own lives black americans today offer a bleaker puke about their community as a whole. They also stressed determination to limit the president to a single term in office. It well, theres so many things. Im surprised the Washington Post hasnt ran a headline minorities and women women most effective. There are a number of post that show the president is in the striking fleet of that 20 necessary to win in the swing states. I was a School Choice lawyer but i was always questioning whether School Choice and Educational Opportunity whatever translate in support of the post because essentially, republicans were expanding Political Capital and beneficiary where democrats promote their children, etc. That was answered in florida where 18 of africanamerican women from 100,000, threeee tims that victory voted not for the black candidate or not by party for the democratic candidate voted for the senate and elected on the School Choice, so theres a hill pulled six weeks ago and decide, black voters overwhelmingly support the democrats, trump was only 15 . 15 , you went the entire south. Maybe even virginia. But that number in that pole and again, most polls do not have a big enough sample size. In other words, black voters margin is bigger than the entire population. 31 of black males would support the president against the democrats but a number of other polls talk about job approval or something other than voter intention, the ask those questions. There are a number of other polls that have 49 of africanamericans approving of the president s economic job performance. There are polls that have the majority of africanamericans saying they believe they will be better off at the end of the Trump Administration and they were at the end of the obama administration. Across the board on any think you want to talk about, for instance, at this time in the obama ministration from black unemployment was three times higher than it is today. So i believe at least 20 of black votes will not buy into this ridiculous narrative where folksbu say trump is a racist bt for 60 years of his life, he was embedded by the establishment. In one case, the same upward for courage on civil rights, muhammad ali on the same day. You can either believe he magically became racist, they start to be the chief of staff, the Top Air Force officer of the air force for the first time. Or, you can believe that he must run against the liquid which is why everybody is saying is a racist, or at least the democrats. Our conversation with robinson, his focus coming home, how black americans will reelect trump. If you like to review, spent five years recovering as an air force captain, a conservative activist and lets get your phone calls. Tyrone in new york city. Democrat line. Good morning. Good morning. Thank you for taking my call. Thank you for your service. I want to thank you for your dedication to what you believe in. Th my problem with the Republican Party is yes, they were parties of the abolitionists, party of the rights of black people and like you said, they gave us up. We didnt give them up. Where did we have to turn as black people . We always have to choose the lesser of two evils. When we see a party thats actively working to destroy our right like polling sites, like this across situation by trying to keep us from being involved in the major or of this american system voting, you put us up against the wall, they put our back up against the wall every tell us toen they accept that whole thing, looked at human beings in this country. Weve got to continue to fight against this whole idea of white superiority, where they continue to maintain the power over us as black people. Thank you for the call. There are a number of them that the gop can make over it failure in the 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s to effectively support enforcement of 40 rights activists in the 15th amendment. It would have been nice if there were some replicants or services w them, whatever you want to say about john lewis in his younger days, he was fearless. The freedom riders were not there wealth before they got on a bus because they expected to be killed. It would have been nice to have replicants taking those risks, on the outcomes of that is a discussion about why he did not support the Civil Rights Act but what they did was, if forced the political and spiritual leadership of the black community of the far left including my mother, was registering voters in the south but there was no conservative group registering voters in the south. There were no Republican Voters in the south in the 40s. My mother was out of her own hometown because of threats so theres a problem there. However, this Voter Suppression trotted out every two years by e the democrats because of that. When black voters hear the Democrat Party that is responsible for the deaths of 20 million black children and now selling body parts, when they hear its not the democrat partg once again all caps, its opportunity topping School Choice and not the parents, that creates the private sector job to save their lives. I asked the caller, are your relatives working . Its their own situations as opposed to the talking points. Don, your next. Thank you for waiting. Ygood morning. Good morning. My question is about the issue of unemployment for black men, theres a report that said major cities where blacks are the majority of unemployment for black men, seven times higher than is for white men. The majority of black cities so where is the effective employment being utilized in what city . Most cities such as new york and houston, these are city patients. This is new York New Jersey detroit, michigan is 18 in michigan, which is like 80 black and Unemployment Rate is astronomically high, look at the top 25 cities that is majority black, Unemployment Rate for black men is preposterous. And will get a response. I would ask the caller to look at the numbers again. Particularly atlanta, you cant get to a 5. 9 46. Unemployment rate with black women at 18 . As a problem in some of the northern and mr. Midwestern cities by democrat and that is, they are so destroyed the infrastructure, the schools are so bad that they have caused problems with minority employment opportunities. One of the things in addition to supporting School Choice and 20 million black babies, Current Administration has received criminal Justice Reform and involved in other steps, nonviolent, non sexual offenders and smooth their way back in to it. Its also a local issue. You need to find a way to house them. You need to find a way to address drivers license issues because many times their licenses are no good and theyll be back in court driving without a license or what have you. So bottom line, the expense of the economy, raising wages helps all an attempt black americans close the gap faster than anybody else. In the book you write the following, whether a string or a river, black americans are leaving the Democratic Party to drink the party of dorothy trump. He mentored the party of trump not the Republican Party, why . Is at the party of trump . I used to be able to announce on cspan that the party of mitt romney, bob dole, blake and john mccain is that the president and its not coming back. It was a Republican Party and it was a party that would not be able to take a punch not able to throw a punch. That party is gone. Thats why we talk about the party. This president is asking black voters for their books. Something that hasnt happened for about seven years. What your reaction when the president has been critical of john mccain not only in life but also in death. It does not go too far . Too personal on jupiter, to toxic . I was very disappointed. I cant speculate what i would have done or not done in the president s shoes but even in that . After he passed away . John mccain great damage. Because of him, in part, it failed to keep its promise to substantially reduce the impact of obamacare. Perhaps beyond that but john mccain did great damage to this country by stopping republicans by reducing some of the most egregious aspects of the Affordable Care act it down gop care because they failed to do anything about it. Bernie robertson, the book coming home and great is next from texas. Good morning. Thank you. Appreciate cspan. I have a few things to ask you some comments. Be patient. Okay. Back in the days, protesting for everybodys civil rights, every time they do something good for the United States and build their community, our communities always got corrupted and taken down by fear. But thats not true. But then, we dont build this country and then democrat in peoples rights, like the mexicans and like the africans, they come over here in america they say they are lazy and dont want to do nothing. Thats not true. We got young people, we give them opportunity they will go get it. America wants to get down on that level so we dont get the more powerful. Youre talking about the Republican Party and all these people coming in this country and they didnt play any of the roles like in white men have to go through. Your opening business and drink the stuff they have to do. There coming in the country and doing what they want too do, and america is not. You do something in the community, every time we did, for example, what people got nervous and got mad. Un thank you for the call. Thank you for the question. I would ask, if this country is so bad, what country would you prefer to be in . Thats a nobrainer. Everybody will be here if the democrats have the open border policy because at least for now, its the place where you dont have to do what your father did. You can go beyond that and achieve, i would like to point out the democrats primarily who were restricting black Economic Activity most of the history of this country, secondly, it was the swamp in both parties trying to open borders and bring in cheap labor, undercutting the wages and in the new Republican Party, we are not committed to open borders, we arend committed to securing the borders and deporting people who are not supposed to be here. So we are experiencing unparalleled opportunity, i was excited republican primary for mayor so i encourage the folks to talk about three things. Firstur, School Choice. To get more kids out of disastrous Public Schools and afford to protest in washington but cant afford to heat or cool the classrooms. The second item is testing, asopt a test like the measure of academic progress, northwest educationca. If our viewers want to look at it so that they are given tools. Finally, a total overhaul of post secondary expenses, we need traits. I talked to an old girlfriend recently, shes 67 now as an electrical contract and can hire someone to do Electrical Work in ohio. The averageno age of electricias in this country is like 50 it. Same with skilled trades. Places where you can earn huge amounts of money with no college debt as opposed to this insensate beat of sending folks to programs where they get a degree thats useless and move into their parents basement. Im hoping that might bring that work. If you could briefly go back 50 or 60 years ago, and trying to get the africanamerican vo vote, because the biggest mistakes they did beyond forming Civil Rights Act but was it something black americans could not relate to . Worth the mistakes . The Civil Rights Act of 64 was a pretty big one. We scoured the countryside, looking for the 83 page document that made the case for why opposed the civilha right act on constitutional grounds. Didnt by your employer at the time by the name of robert. We also look for the 15 page summary of the opinion that was his personal attorney, both of those documents taken by the body snatchers. Its an interesting discussion, he saidhe he was wrong himself. The reality was, Voting Rights were not supported in the south and some of the other issues would have taken care of themselves if black voters were enfranchised. Second, the reason why the green book was around, it would have had white individuals divine the English Common law of feeding and housing people when there was no other place to be housed across thehe south so that conservatives didnt have an answer other than move. The police would not allow black citizens to even leave the atmosphere in the south. So whats not true, theres strategy, goldwater made a speech ten days before the election and he was going to
