Frances Rice, chairman of the National Black Republican Association, describes the Democrat Party as the “architect of modern day racism.” She’s a retired Army lieutenant colonel and lawyer, and she avers that it was Republicans who pushed through the ground-breaking civil rights legislation in Congress – and that the GOP still stands for empowering blacks to help them out of poverty. In contrast, she says, the liberal party pushes programs that keep her fellow blacks dependent on government handouts and temporary “fixes,” and encourages them to see themselves as victims.
