Politics 2008:The Caucuses and The Dem/Rep Conventions

I know that he owns his own business now.

But I'm curious as to why the Republicans never elevated him to run for President?

He appeared to have all of the right credentials and was elected from Oklahoma (which is very conservative from what I understand). He also appeared to be the Black 'poster child' of the party at one time.

I think it would have been quite the interesting race to see him and Sen. Obama discuss various topics.

I guess JC was reminded that althouh he was a REPUBLICAN, he was/is STILL a NIGRA! Therefore, when he saw there was no chance that he was going to be the Repub's poster child for Black Repubs or he was not going to be a key figure in the party, he reverted back to Oklahoma and away from politics.

Oh well!
