I ask what has either party done for black americans? Every black american is not going to have a small business, every black american is not interested in visiting museums (said to have been built in DC under the Bush administration). However, every black american needs a good education and from what teachers have shared with me children are being left behind.
When broken down children that attend schools that aren't meeting the requirements loose out on funding, while the schools that are average or above average receive additional funds. That doesn't make sense to me. I'm sure teachers on the board know first-hand (and hopefully I was given correct info, if not, please accept my apologies).
I registered as an independent b/c I feel that both parties (Republican and Democrat) need to reevaluate.
I also find is very ironic and hilarious that the word "morals" keep coming up. The word morals needs to be defined b/c apparently Bush (and his supporters) have a different definition or a very narrow view of what morals entail.

I'm also an independent. Neither party really appeals to me at this point in time, as a pro-business moderate person.
