Just to clarify:
The GOP didn't historically represent the wealthy and conservative (nor the Dems the working/underpriviledged and liberals until the 1960s). It disturbs me to see Blacks talk about the GOP like they were Satan's son, even though historically that was not the case. Case in point, FDR was a GOP.
But it is indeed interesting to see more Blacks joining the GOP in recent years (and in the '04 presidential election, special interest groups such as America's PAC was pushing hard for Blacks to go GOP).
Myself? I find neither of the major parties appealing to me, and once it is recognized on Ohio's ballots, I am going the Libertarian route.
