Exactly what enormous power do black women have?? She summed up the ignorance though by saying "we vote Democrat no matter what".
Exactly!
Black people have been voting Democrat for decades. Year after year and election after election, its the same empty promises and fairy tales that keep them in poverty. It's almost like they suffer from Stockholm syndrome to the Democratic party.
"no matter what" pretty much says it all.
