Why do White Christians Vote Republican, and Black Christians Vote Democrat? 

Maybe you typed it weird but can you explain what that means lol

@@Royalty_girlie that African Americans are so overwhelmed with trying to obtain their human rights that their religious rights aren’t even on their radar yet.

@@Royalty_girlie What it means is that, while black Christians and white Christians might agree about certain issues like opposing abortion, same sex marriage, and supporting prayers in school, the white conservative Christians also envision a future where segregation and ‘separate but equal’ are the law of the land. In such a world, you might have prayer in school but find that, if you’re black, your child won’t be able to go to the public school of their choice because it’s racially segregated. Hence, “Having the right to hear a Christian prayer in your local public school doesn’t mean a lot if you’re not allowed to attend your local public school.” So even if conservative black Christians and conservative white Christians might agree on some issues, the world the conservative white Christians envisions is one where the black Christian would be a second-class citizen. Hence, conservative black Christians end up voting for democrats who might support things they oppose, like legalized abortion and same sex marriage, but at least democrats are interested in preserving the fundamental human rights of black conservative Christians.

And true. Add to the fact that the governors in southern states closed all schools to prevent integregation which forced black students (like my 70-something parents & their friends) to migrate north to continue education AND created private schools, all to the testified detriment of white students who couldn't afford those schools' tuitions, and it is abundantly clear why Blacks vote Democrat and white Christianity is dying.

That is one of the most insightful lines I have ever heard to sum up racism and separation of church and state. I mean that is fire!!! Nothing matters more than being treated as a human being in every regard first and foremost.

🙌🙌🙌

That part!!!

Umm except that the civil rights act ( mostly a republican effort ) dealt with that LONG ago and prayer in school is a CURRENT issue. Very dishonest of Phil.

@@paultrosclair1775 That’s not the only thing he’s being dishonest about.

@@paultrosclair1775 this is not dishonesty. Segregation of schools still exists. Like today.

Exactly 💯!

Yup. First things first.

@@kristengeorge6289 hey, you really need to get over your Dad dumping you. It’s ok to move on.

@@ILLGCF Huh? What did you do-hack the account of the guy who originally commented? You trolls crack me up. My parents have been married for 46 years. And even if I had no clue who my father, or mother is, for that matter-your comment shows quite clearly that you vibrate on a pitifully low wavelength to which I can’t be bothered to descend. Good day.

​@@kristengeorge6289 first thing should be what Christ said, "Unless a man deny himself, take up his cross and follow Me he Cannot be my disciple"

Which would be the party that promotes school choice, right? That's republicans. It would be the party that de-regulates businesses to give more opportunities to all people to start one, right? That would be republicans. It's the party that is against the wonton murder of unborn black babies, right? That would be republicans. Just want to make sure we're on the same page.

You mean the party that "claims" to be those things.

That would be the Republican Party who do not support abortion or gay marriage which by the way is a sin against God. If you vote for a democrat who believes in murder of innocent babies in the womb and promoting gay marriage(read Romans 1 ) then you are not a Christian. A Christian doesn’t vote for things that God hates.

@@ibealion1 Also the party that is not trying to put your son in a dress. The same party that encourages family, rather than object to the black man presiding over his family, children and community.

@@ceciliaramos2280 Clearly you want a theocracy then since your only argument that abortion is wrong is if a fetus has a soul. Souls are a purely theistic or at least deistic idea so not based in scientific reason. Separation between church and state is the only viable option for stopping tyrannical structures from growing. I think you should look into the history of when Christians controlled governments in the Middle Ages and what was done it is pretty horrifying.

That is unfortunate. I'm so in favor of term limits. Career politicians would treat the American people differently if they were rejoining them in 8 years. But that will only happen if they impose it on themselves. I won't hold my breath. But that would keep them from doing stuff like passing Obamacare for us, but it not affecting their own separate health coverage.

That's a good question. They should have term limits.

Republican want terms limit until they got in control then they voted it's down

We need to change that!!!

1. House Representatives serve 2-year terms. 2. A single politician cannot even come close controlling the entire government, not even if they serve many terms. 3. They are elected by the citizens from their states. So if they please their voters, they get reelected. Even if every other state disagrees with why they are being voted for. Strom Thurmond being reelected over and over simply reflects a racist voter base coming from South Carolina. It's wrong, but it's what SC wanted. And he didn't control the government - all the racial equality measures were passed even with him voting against them.

Very good, thank you.

It teaches false revisionism.

Racists should feel bad. They're bad and the things they stand for are bad. The things they have done to black people are bad!!

Both Parties are evil.

My point exactly! I got to see what my kids were learning and it was not this for a whole quarter of school.

Rather than praise for the channel its more an indictment of the education system. Since I studied US history for about a year outside of the US and it covered most of these topics. I take it not even the northern states go in depth on topics like the black panthers or southern strategy etc before university?

@@YouboremenowI agree. I'm a social studies teacher. I wish this was on the curriculum, making these connections, but it's not because the powers that create the curriculum don't want these connections made. I had to take history college classes for this knowledge. I have a history degree.

Leftists bank on republicans dying on the hill of principal . Funny how “ conservatives” won’t vote for Trump who governed conservative. But will vote for Biden who is a far leftists because he’s “nicer” than the orange man .

I'm tired of it too!

Some Christians seem to idolize Trump, in reality, no President can save you. Please know that no matter what happens God is still in control no matter who is in the White House. I hope you have enough accountability for your own life and not relying on anyone to save you; including Trump. Not Trump or Biden, but JESUS 2020!!! The level of partisanship in the church is ridiculous, we are not of this world! God is not a Republican or Democrat. Be careful you don't prophesy out of your own preference.

I don’t think this video had anything to do with real Christians but the history of hypocrisy in America, the lamb like beast (Christianity) that speaks like a dragon (evil laws). He concluded by stating both parties are false and far off from the standards of God such as love the Lord and your neighbor. Hold fast to what is true while moving from glory to glory.

@DJO your history is wrong. By the time Rome fell it had been a Christian nation for a long time and hadn't persecuted Christians in ages.

@DJO pagan rome did not crumble it switched to a state religion and did quite well for a while before collapsing. Well unless your idea of falling and crumbling is a switch in ideology not standards of living, economy or infrastructure.

Admitting that doesn't support their narrative about liberals trying to erase Christianity

@@MichaelTheophilus906 yes they can. anyone can pray in school at any time. what is illegal to do according to the constitution, is have a teacher or staff member (government employee) LEAD the students in prayer.

@@nonir670 Its not hard to erase that fake ass Jesus u guys worship.

@@MichaelTheophilus906 yes, michael. even where you live. i know christians favorite game to play is the “i’m being oppressed!” card, but even where you live, christians, muslims, wiccans, buddhists-they are all allowed to sit quietly and bow their heads and say a prayer. no one can stop a student from doing that, or a person from doing that, anywhere. prayer is not a big ceremony that many people have to be involved in. it’s a personal moment that any person can do at any time. until we get actual thought police like 1984, no one can be stopped from praying anywhere.

We had a 'moment of silence' after the pledge (It was well known so students that want to pray can do so). I'm talking still into the early 2000s. This is in the South. So yes, Christians have found a way to force prayer in public schools. And they wouldn't allow the students that wanted to sit down to sit. We were forced to stand in silence for the few that were quietly praying.

Yes... except that the racists hide behind things like welfare and foodstamps and the "right" to murder as many of your own babies as you want to keep you down now instead of segregation laws. (Interesting side note: the democrats are still against school choice, like they always have been, so that hasn't changed as much as Phil Vischer may be inclined to think.) They want you to think they're trying to make you free while they're really trying to keep you enslaved. But thankfully folks like Candace Owens and Brandon Tatum are starting to express this problem more clearly.

@@ibealion1 or they hide in plain sight behind a president who emboldens white supremacist on a national stage, call Mexican immigrants rapist and murderers, and actively tried to suppress votes in areas populated by African Americans. Or they support a police culture and a “law and order” message that exercises police brutality on black and brown communities. I could go on but that will suffice

@@romelljeremiah I provided you with specific racist policies that are foundational to the democratic party and you provided me with rhetoric from the democratic party about Donald Trump. If it were true, then his policies would have been as racist as the democrats and they didn't come close. You will never find me defending Donald Trump. The man is rude and unkind. But you will never find me voting democrat either for the reasons given in my previous comment. I could end with... they want to kill as many black babies as possible. There really is nothing... even if all of your accusations are true, that comes close to that one fundamental democratic party platform policy.

@Mrs. Jackson I'm not the one that made the connection. The founder of planned parenthood, Maragret Senger created the modern uegenics movement specifically for the purpose of control of people with black skin in the United States. Just because you, a black woman, have bought into the lie from Satan that you're better off with dead children, doesn't mean that the act has somehow become noble. And I'm well aware thag plenty of white women and plenty of latino women and plenty of other women have bought this lie too. But it doesn't change the fact that the abortion industry in the United Stated was designed for and still targets black people more than any other group.

@Mrs. Jackson Oh... I'm not really expecting to change anyone's opinions. Have you ever seen anyone change their opinion through a RU-vid comment exchange? It's hard enough for people to think critically and honestly period, and conversing remotely, the chances of that happening are even less.

Being a real Christian is impossible. The Bible is full of too many contradictions to be able to say a real Christian is possible. It’s whatever the follower wants it to be, which can be good or bad depending on how modern people’s beliefs are.

I’ve never seen that. Also, it kinda is. The civil war is America’s history, and we shouldn’t get rid of it

nothing wrong with two party system, the problem is the inability to compromise. Governance should be all about compromise, because as you say, somewhere in the middle is where everyone sits. And, btw, its time to separate "what God says" from your voting. You (nobody) have no idea what God actually says, so I don't want your religion anywhere near the policies I have to live with. And that's democracy. God doesn't "call us" to vote, the secular constitution does.

There are more choices.

@@jatmas11 Technically yes, but as long as we have "first past the post" voting it only makes sense for people to vote strategically for a party they think is likely to win, until the voting power inevitably collects between two competing parties.

The solution is to have "Open Primaries", like in New Hampshire. This problem has shot from being a peripheral issue to urgent since the Trump era began in 2016.

The problem is, it's hard to go forward while viewing life through the rear view mirror. Glance at it? Sure. Focus on it? No.

@@f8beenthere It's beneficial to look in the other person's rear view mirror from time to time, and maybe to let that information influence our thoughts and actions.

@@f8beenthere Cars have rearview mirrors for a reason. History is important. That’s why God commanded his people to remember their past (the good and the bad) literally all day long and teach their history to their children.

@@kimberlycronen3998 It is important to learn from history, as I stated. God didn't command His people to focus on their history, or dwell on their history. I remember being told that I was the wrong color and sex for a job at a newspaper. A defense contractor told me the same thing when qualified white males didn't get a job, but an unqualified minority woman did get the job.(And tons of other unfair treatment). I don't dwell on it though. There is no point. I move on. Life teaches us at least one thing- "Life is unfair". Get over it, and move on.

@@rdalton7557 - Are we to meditate on Scripture? That’s the past. 🤷🏻‍♀️ So, yeah, I think dwelling on the past while living in the present and prudently moving forward aware of our place in time is objectively a Best Practice for Christians. If you’re feeling bitter about past injustices done to you, consider counseling. It’s hard work, but a good Christian counselor can help you to let go and perhaps consider other perspectives along the way. 💗 Don’t project your feelings of bitterness onto others, though. The analogy of keeping the past in our “rearview mirror” implies we are still moving forward. It does not imply bitterness.

Because the oportunity for that position is given trougth favours. And is the same in all countries where human live

That's exactly what it is. And people are dumb enough to vote based on party instead of policy.

@Berserking Bishop no not in england

Seriously

So true. Especially the GOP after Trump. Not saying the Dems are perfect either. But the modern GOP has become the Trump cult. Please 45 at all costs, even if it means tarnishing democracy or going against all that's moral

Hopefully it'll trap some people into learning.

There’s no conservative takedown of liberalism and black people. They like to say that black people are ‘enslaved’ on a ‘Democrat plantation’ but they’ve never given a single good reason why a person with black skin should vote for them. It’s a free market for all, they’re free to fight for black votes just as democrats are. Yet they never try, but they will complain till kingdom come about black people not voting for them. All they’d really have to do is acknowledge systemic racism and take steps to combat it. But we all know that doing so would mean that they’d instantaneously lose a sizeable percentage of their voters. My advice to conservatives; stop whining about black Americans not voting for when the foundation of your platform is inherently anti-black.

@@kingdom2472 Well, I am a white atheist and I suspect that these days, the loyalty of African Americans is more due to anger at Republicans than love for the Democrat Party. When the whole Republican Party gets taken over by a rich racist buffoon who encourages white supremacists, African Americans get angry. When they see Republicans making voting more difficult for minorities in states they dominate, African Americans get angry. African Americans are intelligent enough to see that any difficulties Joe Biden is having in enacting his agenda is due to resistance by Republicans and Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Senema. So I doubt they are "upbeat" two years in, but they certainly are angry.

@Matt Vanderford God’s people in the Bible engaged in corporate lament and repentance for systemic and generational sins. The idea that sin is only defined as an individual issue is uniquely American.

@Matt Vanderford I’m not saying individual sin isn’t biblical - it most definitely is. No question. I’m saying that the idea that it’s appropriate for a society to lament and repent together for the sinful things done within that cultural framework is also biblical - yet not emphasized within the White US American church. You hear a lot of, “Well my family and I never did that.” Maybe not, but if you call yourself an American then you have to accept the good and the bad. I take pride in the good that “we” have done as a nation. That’s part of what it means to have membership in a group. But group membership also means I am there for the ugly things, too. I accept that “we” have sinned, must lament the evil done, repent, and try to make it right. The systemic sins are glossed over in the White American church, and that is what’s culturally unique.

@Matt Vanderford - Hm. Well I agree that revival and restitution for national wrongs should go hand-in-hand, but I’ve personally never been to a revival where we’ve call for a national effort to right the wrongs committed by our country. Personal sin requires a change of heart and the work of the Holy Spirit in an individual’s life. Holy people can still exist in sinful systems, though, and even benefit from them. Systemic problems call for policy changes, not just renewal of the heart. We live in a country that we govern - that’s a blessing and a huge responsibility. We are not just subject to the whims of a monarch. We can change laws and systems that are unjust or cause injustice. If we know the good we ought to do and don’t try to make it happen, that’s sin. Over the past six months, White congregations have been more vocal about social and racial injustice, but whether we will make a meaningful difference in our country in the name of Jesus on this front remains to be seen.

I noticed that Baldwin credited Malcolm X with this statement in I Am Not Your Negro, but “the most segregated hour..” quote has always been attributed to MLK. This comment just reminded me to go look that up. Maybe both said it.

AND guess what? It is the most segregated day in each and every other country in the world too! Get out more.

@@monikapitts3982 I can assure you this is Malcolm. However, MLK had his own version , yet similar meaning.

@@LilliLamour And Malcolm X also said never to trust white liberals/Democrats.

@@jasonmatthews1824 Okay and what does that have to do with the context of to his video?

Its NOT a history lesson. Its a propaganda piece. He twists and misrepresents history and omits a lot. Of course that is typical for a democrat.

@@paultrosclair1775 Someone in his position spewing propaganda and hiding behind the Bible is more harmful than the social progressives who state what they are upfront. This man is a false prophet.

Don't believe it. Democrats did NOT "flock to the Republican party in droves." Strom Thurmond was the only Dixiecrat to switch in the supposed "Big Switch."

Ma'am, can I get you to listen to a couple of videos and one website that lays out the real truth??

Why do you guys consider it fake a quick Google search will show it's true. I question were you get your "facts" from

No offense to Phil, but he isn't perfect either 😅, putting our hope in man is what got us into this current state of affairs...

Matthew Evjen No one is perfect but to be let down by the evangelical church many of us were raised in on such a large scale is disheartening. I currently attend an Orthodox Church. I’m sure there are imperfect people there too but at least the church is 2000 years old and not based on a cult of personality of some charismatic TV preacher.

@@CJNooberson Thanks for the reply, I think my comment got lost in internet translation and what you said was not what I was meaning but I see your point.

Though, crooked politicians and dodgy agendas will always be a part of society. Maybe part of our problem is that "First-Past-The-Post" voting will inevitably end in a perpetually polarizing two-party system. ru-vid.com/group/PLNCHVwtpeBY4mybPkHEnRxSOb7FQ2vF9c

Parties are a natural consequence of people organizing themselves. The system decides what kind of parties are made, which @@DavidGossettMusic points out correctly.

George Washington warned us about political parties in his farewell address.

Moral of the story: man is sinful. All men. All conservatives and all progressives look out for their own interests rather than the interests of their brothers and sisters. We dont love our family members, let alone our neighbors. We are sinning when we think ourselves better than our neighbor. Man has been pointing fingers and placing blame instead of obeying God since the garden.

exactly. political parties is the illusion of freedom of choice. Who wants to pick from the lesser of two evils

Thank you for posting.

Bernie Sanders' platform would be center right in Germany, and most developed countries. When our country's economic policies are so skewed to the right, it's very difficult for me to ever consider voting for a Republican.

Why do you have to consider yourself anything?

@@jmwichert8842 actually Europe is skewed to the left.

@@jmwichert8842 , ever lived in Germany??? I have. Your comments are laughable

Unfortunately, this video is very deceptive.

EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! GREAT BREAKDOWN OF A VERY SORRY SITUATION

finally someone speaking with reasoning ability and not divisive propaganda. how refreshing

But it doesn't make it right for black people to still just vote Democrats because if you look deeper that Civil Rights bill was approved by 80% of Republicans and when LBJ passed that bill he didn't do it basically to help black people he did it to keep his party in power by using black votes look at the urban areas that has been historically controlled by the Democrat Party education is bad and majority of the housing or Urban projects were done by the Democrat Party and they're used by minorities all they effectively done was substitute the field plantation for the urban plantation and yet black people still vote for the Democrat Party for no reason at all

@@andrejamison2723 and here you are right to ruin it with divisive propaganda.... 🙄 let it go man

@@last7509 He is correct though!... The history is being used against blacks, by democrats. We would be in a post racial society, if we could just drop identity politics!

It is taught, as well as the southern strategy. Students dont all listen and thus people are still stupid.

@@EpicAsshole It was never taught deeply enough in my school and I was a straight-A student. I go to school in the south and they don't talk about it enough which leads to people in the south believing the switch is fake and didn't happen.

@@justiceorrand6076 You've put your chicken before the egg. You think that it not being taught enough is what caused people in the south to not believe the switch is fake and didnt happen, when the fact of the matter is that it is people in the south believing that the switch is fake and didn't happen which caused it to not be taught. It's one of the negative consequences of leaving schooling up to the states; it results in curriculum incorporating local beliefs (as the school board is generally one of the primary forces responsible for developing curricula).

@@EpicAsshole I was just saying at my school I know that the curriculum doesn't include talk about the party switch and that is obviously related to the belief that it was fake. The order doesn't matter as much because the only way the problem is going to be solved is if the curriculum changes. We most can't change the minds of the people who already believe the party switch is fake, but we can change the education system to where future generations stray from this false idea.

@@justiceorrand6076 The order does matter; the school's curriculum is chosen by the school board/admin who are voted on by the citizens of the area. Therefore, the curriculum will reflect the beliefs of the area, not the other way around. That's why so many districts have abstinence only sex-ed.

Yeah no

@@FilmcreatorsSuperPlushMario you didn't watched the entire video did you😒

@@rainbowllama5570 I didn't watch the video at all, it was just in my recommended and I clicked on it because it caught my attention. Though I don't have to watch this video to know that this person's statement is just another "Oh all white people and Republicans are racist which is why black people vote Democrat because race = every race other than white because white isn't a race and it's impossible to be racist to them and Democrats are woke and not racist" and blah blah blah.

@@FilmcreatorsSuperPlushMario well if you watch the video you would know that he basically said that Republicans are racist not all but most thats why they vote republican if you dont believe me watch the video its a very informative video which includes history and correct information

@@rainbowllama5570 I just finished watching the video. Even with all that being said, the stereotype that "most Republicans are racist" is very incorrect. Racism being a societal norm hasn't been a problem ever since the 1960s. There's no Republican supporting the KKK in the year 2020 and if there are, they're a very very rare minority.

Very well said and so true. Sadly, a lot of people profess Christianity who don't have a Christ-like life. Jesus knew the scribes and Pharisees did things for show and for power and greed. Jesus knows those that are his and while we might fool some, we will never fool Jesus.

@Notus Notus Didn't God have mercy on you while you were a sinner? Didn't God continually show mercy to his people Israel? Didn't Christ tell the pharisees, "I desire mercy not sacrifice"? I'm glad Jesus showed me mercy and love even when I didn't deserve it

Matthew Evjen 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 As for me and my house we DO serve the Lord but I am waaay too busy working out my own salvation to worry about what anyone else is doing in their bedroom. I want my life to be a reflection of God’s Grace and glory, not my judgement of others. I’m quite certain that we will win more souls with love than forcing non-believers to pray in public schools.

@@elefja1 Didn't God also punish the Israelites and send their enemies in to capture them and bring them in to slavery? Don't mistake God's patience in withholding his wrath for mercy and forgiveness. As Christians we are forgiven, but that doesn't mean there won't be consequences for our sins.

@@keyman6689 God corrects his children for their benefit, I strongly disagree that God withholds his grace to people who don't believe in him and punishes them according to their misdeeds

Other way round most rappers identify as Christians. But does that mean they follow the teaching of Christ.

Mississippi raised Baptist and I wholeheartedly agree.

Disagree. it is not possible to "repair the past". You will only add more and more racism to the discussion, as current events are proving. At some point you have to get beyond the race thing. I had hope in Obama when he used the term "post -racial" but his later statements and attitudes were a disappointment.

The narrative of the "the party switch because Republicans embraced racists" is extremely misleading. PragerU debunks this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UiprVX4os2Y.html. The South didn't vote solidly for Republicans until the 80s and 90s, a full 20 to 30 years after the Civil Rights act that Phil says made Southern Democrats switch

@@josh_final Okay. Republicans freed the slaves and were generally against Confederate legacy. Remind me again which group of people love monuments to the confederacy and love flying the rebel flag? But no, the Shift is a myth.. Like racism. Racism also doesn't exist. We are making all this up.

Systemic racism implies that racism is regulated by law, which it isn't. All the laws that upheld racism have been repealed. Yes there are plenty of people who are still racist, and many blacks, not just whites, but that does not make it systemic. It's a lie preached by the left and anyone who doesn't bother to think it over, parrots it.

Oh barf.

Why I picked you? I don't know. I was looking for some answers and comments on a video about what is eternal life. I am very upset and feeling confused and looking for some answers from the bible and especially from Christians. My cousin has excepted Christ into his life and so have I. I am a Democrat and he is a Republican. He has no empathy for black people as a whole growing up in Detroit. He has no problem with hating or should I say feeling repugnant of all Democrats also! We have both excepted Christ into our lives. Okay, now trying to understand the hate that so many republicans have for people from different parties because it stuns me. I pray for this world, my friends, family, this country, those that are suffering around the world, and I am at an impasse as he is not. Are Christians supposed to hate? If eternal life and Salvation are not the same things, could someone explain 1st John 3:15? 1st John 3:15 says if you hate you are a murderer and shall not have eternal life, so do you still have salvation? Didn't Christ want us to have a love for those who were suffering? What about injustice, poverty, the broken-hearted? Yes, everything is in God's hands and I should not be afraid or have fear in my heart for the Lord has his plan in the second coming and it may soon come and solve all this. (Nothing to concern yourself with). I do not believe the Lord wants me to sit back and not try to keep this Democracy intact. Is it only the rich Christians that have all this corruption in this leader that they feel is so strong about, are they right? Or is it really about money and power? Truth and hypocrisy in the same breath? What on earth is going on? I am looking for other views on this. We are at a very critical place and I worry for the souls of this planet and his frankly. Actually, I fear that the real truth not being understood by white Christians and that they have labeled things in their minds and so, therefore, have no need to evaluate it further. YOU THINK? .11/12/2020

Actually, this video helps to further divide people with deceptions. It's unfortunate that Phil didn't use this platform to tell the truth and help to unite people instead.

@@krissteele7960 It seems that you have been believing the lies of the leftist media. Most Republicans don't hate anyone, but welcome people to join them. I have found much more hatred toward people in the Democrat party if anyone has an opinion different than theirs. I have found Republicans to be much more accepting of people with differing views and perspectives. It is not "rich Christians" that are corrupt, but rather people who pretend to be Christian, but support policies and politicians who are corrupt and their actions negatively affect hard working Americans. When you consider who the CEO's of large corporations support, who big tech supports and who the Wall Street bankers support, it becomes obvious that the Democrat party is the party of the rich, the elitist and not the party of hard working Americans. In fact, biden chose prominent people from large corporations, big tech and Wall Street banks to be in key positions in his administrations. They most surely will not have the best interest of hard working Americans, including black Americans, in mind when they impose more restrictions on American society. The Democrat party is not a party that cares about Christian values or freedoms.

@@lg9388 You seem to have an idea that the Republicans are for the working people? Gee, you must be all confused about who is who and what the hell is actually happening in this country? How can you say what you say? The most obvious corruption is in the rich Republicans who try so hard to flip the "witch" on to the Democrats! Do you have a curious mind and look more deeply at things or not? You would see that you need to open your mind to reality! God is so so so good to me and I understand that he is a gracious lord and his kindness to me is ever abounding for insights into his word. It is not about how you control people.( If I hit "Return do I send my message or a new paragraph?) Anyway, God loves us all, and even if this country is exactly cut in half....Half is still my home too! Do I need to be excluded from my country's direction because the I am not a Republican? Do the Republicans even hear the hearts stopping and breaking every day? Review in your mind's eye a list of pro's and con's of each party and the truth is evident. The difficulty in this perplexing time is great and hard for each of us right now. (You Have no Idea for ME!) I don't want to toss out any ideas you would have but want to analyze my thinking too, if I am the wrong one here. Thanks for responding! God Bless this message and you

@@krissteele7960 Hi. Thank you for your comment. I find it helpful to think of it as two similar things that are both called Christianity. One is a religion based on the teachings of the New Testament. The other is the act of truly following the Jesus who is revealed in the New Testament. The first has always led to division and suspicion. The second leads to a life of humility, service, love, hope, and yes sometimes hardship. And it's easy to confuse the two.

History shows that LIBERAL really means LIBERATED from white supremacist CHRISTIANITY ideology

@@rogermartin798 Liberalism sucks. Go progressive with socialist qualities.

@DAVID god probably wanted them to have an ironic downfall after seeing they were homophobic

@DAVID 💯!!!!

It's not really about black vs white. The real colors it is about is blue and red. Blue is for Democrats and Red is for Republicans. The blue democrats are always being prevented from helping people. There is a reason the parties chose these colors to represent them. Blue angels vs Red devils. During the civil war the Blue coats won. Through-out history and in all cultures blue is for God and the good, while the color red is used to represent the Devil and everything evil. Red is for hate and for war - Redrum is murder spelled backwards. Blue is for the truth, splendor and beauty. Blue States are better for communal life. Red States are hell holes of suppression and racism. Blue is for deeper thought and peace. Red is for rage and rebellion. the blue democrat party is "for" everything - and is positive - while the red republican party is only against everything - and is negative. The red party is full of hate and racism and lies. The true blue party is smeared by them as liars and satan whorshipers. But that's what their all about - they are a corrupt party. They lie when the speak. Obama was 99% correct when he said you could keep your doctor. But they say he was a liar because there was a 1% discrepancy. But when they are 1% correct about anything - they say they told the truth. In the Revolutionary war we wore Blue coats & we killed the Red coats. Jesus was a Democrat Rabbi and they wore blue. He was for the poor. The Romans wore red and built the colliseum from the spoils of their sacking the temple in Jeruslem. There - they expressed their hate for many years to come - killing the christians in their blood red games. Hobby Lobby are evil schills for the right winger's hate and lies. Blue is the color of God and his moral law Luke 9:35; Rom. 1:4.
