They would worry about fatherlessness, the 70 percent of black children born to single mothers, the illiteracy that holds down black achievement, and drugs that blight black lives.<\/p>\n<p>They would champion school choice, which Attorney <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">General<\/a> Bill Barr calls the \u201ccivil rights issue of our era.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They would wonder why black disadvantage and violence is \u00adentrenched in cities they have controlled for decades.<\/p>\n<p>But instead, Democrats blather about \u201csystemic racism\u201d and blame cops and President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>They pander with empty \u00adgestures such as Mayor de Blasio renaming streets after Black Lives Matter.<\/p>\n<p>No one does pandering better than House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Her genuflecting performance in African garb was nauseating. But when she found herself unable to get off the floor, she did at least provide an inadvertent metaphor for the Democrats\u2019 electoral prospects in November.<\/p>\n<p>Five months out from an election, it is obvious they are stoking black grievance as an electoral \u00adnecessity.<\/p>\n<p>The priority is not \u201cBlack Lives Matter.\u201d It\u2019s \u201cBlack Votes Matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How convenient that the Floyd protests erupted just a week after Biden made a catastrophic mistake that threatened the very basis of his presidential run. He lost his temper with popular black radio host Charlamagne tha God, and blurted out the truth of his party\u2019s attitude to race: \u201cIf you\u2019ve got a problem figuring out if you\u2019re for me or Trump, then you ain\u2019t black.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The naked racism set off a thunderclap of panic among Democrats. It vindicated the \u201cBlexit\u201d movement Candace Owens founded for black people to break free from the \u201cvictim narrative\u201d the party has created for them.<\/p>\n<p>Convulsions on the street these past two weeks reflect the psychic implosion of the Democratic Party as the black vote they have taken for granted for 60 years threatens to slip away. They expose impure motives by fomenting black grievance and empowering black radicals, as black-owned businesses are looted and burned, and urban communities are left bereft.<\/p>\n<p>As for Biden, he acts as if he owns the black vote and has some special empathy on race. But his record tells a different story.<\/p>\n<p>When he arrived in the Senate in 1973, he sucked up to Democratic segregationists who gave him plum committee roles.<\/p>\n<p>He boasted he was the architect of 1994 crime legislation that was disproportionately tough on black lives. Its mandatory minimum sentences for drug offenses resulted in the incarceration of a generation of young black men.<\/p>\n<p>The tragic irony is that Floyd was one of those young men and it probably ruined his life.<\/p>\n<p>The son of a single mother, from public housing in Houston, he wanted to make something of himself, and was the first in his family to go to college.<\/p>\n<p>But in 1997 at age 23, he was jailed for 10 months for possession of less than one ounce of cocaine.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15814459\"><img alt=\"Given Joe Biden\u2019s horrendous track record with treating African Americans, Philonise Floyd should be wary if Floyd\u2019s death will not be in vain if Biden is elected as president.\" data- data- height=\"441\" width=\"662\"><\/img><figcaption><span>Given Joe Biden\u2019s horrendous track record with treating African Americans, Philonise Floyd should be wary if Floyd\u2019s death will not be in vain if Biden is elected as president.<\/span><span>AFP via Getty Images <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If he had been offered drug rehabilitation and a job, perhaps he could have avoided a lost decade of stints in and out of jail.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the context for Biden\u2019s claim to be the candidate for black America.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is Mr. Biden doing,\u201d asks black scholar Shelby Steele, of Stanford University\u2019s Hoover Institution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDoes he really deeply care about black America \u2026 or is he using our pain as a kind of advertisement of his own moral vanity \u2026 that he thinks will translate into votes and get him elected?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Steele, who grew up in segregated Chicago in the 1950s and \u201960s, posed the question on Fox <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> this week, whether Biden knows that many of the difficulties of black America \u201chave nothing in the world to do with \u00adracism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhite guilt [and] exploitation of black pain is not dissimilar to what segregation did.
