I'm a Republican, by the way.
Anybody who runs for president in this country and comes out as strong as the Democrats were about helping the poor folks and black folks is not going to win.
Speaking as a black person, welfare is the worst thing that's ever happened to us.
I'm for economic independence.
The least I can do is show Medgar I still care. And Martin.
So I'm in the Republican Party for the same reason I was in the Democratic Party: to make sure blacks are included, along with everyone else.
