As a percentage, far more whites vote Democrat than blacks vote Republican. Clinton's job approval rate among blacks hovers around 90 percent. But there's more. Bond Moreover, they point out that affirmative action did not accelerate the growth of the black middle class. The rise of blacks into professional and similar occupations was faster in the five years preceding passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 than in the five years following its passage.
Bond is, quite simply, wrong.
This mistaken view explains the almost pathological defense of big government and the indifference toward the unfair middle-class tax burden. Note that Bond says a third of all blacks owe affirmative action. There has not been anybody who has gotten into college on their own, nobody who's gotten a job on their own, no one who's prospered as a businessman or a businesswoman on their own without affirmative action. Pretty big difference. They attempted to destroy all the laws that say America should be bias-free.
