A question to ask your Congressional Representatives. 

Some of the illegals coming over the Mexico border have paid between $20,000 to $50,000 to be brought into this country.  If these people are some poor as the liberal news media would like us to believe, where are they getting the money or better yet, who is supplying the money and why?  What are they up to?  If they had that much money in their family, why leave Mexico where the money could last longer in Mexico than in the United States.  So again, what is really going on?  Where is Congress on this issue? 

With the ongoing and never ending news on how racist we are in this country over the Treyvon Martin trial,  what many black do not understand or want to be understand is that the Democratic party was the reason that blacks were kept down for over 100 years.  If you were black in the 1800's and supported the republicans or were white and a republican, you had an excellent chance of being hanged from a tree.  And doing the hanging were democrats dressed as KKK members in most cases.  Now this is true and cannot be denied by the democrats.   The first black and only black Speaker of the House in 1869 was a republican.  There were approximately 21 blacks elected to Congress and one to the Senate around that time to the dismay of the democrats.  In fact, republicans were responsible for the 13th and 14th amendments to the constitution to benefit blacks over the objections of the democrats.  History has shown that democratic Pres. Woodrow Wilson did his best to discriminate against blacks.  A civil rights bill could not be passed during the FDR administration and Pres. Eisenhower attempted to pass one during his administration, but did not have republicans in control  of the Senate or House.  Again, JFK tired, but failed even with controlling both houses.  However, LBJ saw the benefits of the black vote and attempted to pass a civil rights bill and only through the support of the overwhelming support of the republicans, did the 1964 civil rights bill pass.  So with this history in the democratic party, why do blacks support the democrats?  Because they do not know the truth and are fed a bunch of lies through the promises made and government programs enacted to keep them in line.    An interesting book to read by well know historian, David Barton titled, American History in Black and White will tell you about this history and is a quick read of approximately 175 pages.  But it is history we were not taught in schools.  Read the book a few years ago and it is interesting history.
