Misplaced Loyalty

By Lee Givens Jr.

For many years, I have been paying attention to the destructive policies of the Democratic Party. They have been destructive to our nation; destructive to past, present, and future generations; and particularly destructive to the Black community. One has to only take an honest look at their history to see proof of the destruction.

Introduction

In high school, senior classes usually get together and vote on superlatives for those who are graduating. The superlatives are published in the senior class yearbook. The fun future predictions that are voted on and assigned to each individual or couple in the graduating class are very eagerly anticipated.

One superlative that would never have been assigned to me was most likely to write a book. Language arts was not my strongest subject in high school. I have, however, always loved American history immensely. I was always fascinated with it all through high school and college. I often studied history on the side, and I still do so.

I have been paying attention to politics and the dominant two-party systems here in our country for many years now. In this book, I will give my opinion, along with the factual historical information about both the Republican and Democrat parties. Based on the factual, historical information, my experiences, and observations, I question why Blacks and other minorities have been and still are so loyal to the Democratic Party.

Given the absolute negative history and the present politics of this party, I cannot understand this unwarranted, almost blind loyalty Blacks have for Democrats. Most Black American's ancestors including my own descended from slaves who were cruelly mistreated by their Democrat masters. Only heaven knows the depth of vicious cruelty they suffered in the Democrat south.

When our black ancestors were released from slavery by Republicans, they aligned themselves closely with the Republican Party and prospered with Republican help. Every time Blacks have prospered or made advances economically or politically, it was with the help of Republicans. However, from 1933 to the present, Blacks have been aligning themselves with the Democratic Party to their destruction.

Tax Cuts

Tax cuts are always popular with the American voter because we get to keep more of our money. With this extra money, the frugal American will do three things: common-sense spending, pay off debt, and save and invest for the future. All three are good for both the consumer and federal government.

The revenue to the government will decrease in the short-term, but in the long-term, it will go up if the government will also cut its spending habits at the same time it gives tax cuts. All parties win!

On the other hand, the unwise consumer will only do the spending part and pay little to no attention to debt reduction or saving for the future. Thus, the opportunity presented by the tax cuts will have been squandered.

We here in America are presented with many and varied opportunities to improve our lot in life. Few countries in the world can boast this. It is the number one reason the rest of the world tries to beat a path to get to America by any means necessary. I believe the reason we have been so prosperous for so long is because (1) we were founded by our forefathers to acknowledge Almighty God as our creator and the one who pours out His blessings upon the people who will follow His biblical principles of morality, truth, justice, etc.; (2) America, through a succession of both Democrat and Republican presidents—with the exception of Obama—have been friendly, caring, and protective of Israel and the Jewish people.

God says in His word, the Bible, God tells Abraham ‘I will make you a great nation and I will bless you and make your name great and so you shall be a blessing.' And I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you, I will curse. In you (Jews) all the families of the earth shall be blessed (Gen. 12:1–3). America has been good to Israel, and God has been good to America because of it. America and the world have benefited greatly from the Jewish people.

However, since 1973, led by the Democratic Party, America has been on a moral decline. Why 1973? What is significant about this year? In 1973, the Liberal Democrat–controlled Supreme Court of the United States upheld abortion on demand. Since that time, we have murdered over sixty-one million babies in this country, over twenty million of which were Black.

Why do I single out Black babies? First let me say this clearly: I believe that any baby, no matter the color or race, that dies from abortion dies an unimaginable and shameful tragedy to our nation. In Proverbs 6:17, God lists the hands that shed innocent blood as one of the seven things that is an abomination to
