  • The Democratic Party has taken the black community for granted and said, 'This is the most loyal constituency we have. They're not going anywhere.' But the Republican Party has said, 'That's the most loyal constituency Democrats have. They're not going anywhere. We've got to win without them.'

  • Reparations, I believe, are talked about for political reasons, trying to cater for the purpose of getting votes.
