Education

Blacks have voted democrat since FDR but it became more extreme since the Civil Rights Bill in 1965. Polls show that this is changing particularly among Blacks under age 50. The big concern centers around education. The country has been unable or some say unwilling to close the education gap. What starts with education spreads to poverty which leads to crime. Polls show that many inner city Black parents would like to send their children to schools in the suburbs but there are transportation problems. The country not only needs school choice but school buses must be available to take the students to the burbs. Some are more cynical and say that the democratic party sees keeping racism alive as a political advantage.
