I could be wrong but...
I was listening to Joe Scarborough this morning and he was criticizing the crowd at the Alabama game (because he was being boo'd and hackled) saying that's one of the reasons why Republicans constituents don't care for Liberals, they look down their noses at them and show no respect.
I feel as an AA woman, Im fed up with hearing that B. S. since Republicans have done all they could do to keep our community from voting (let's not forget the gerrymandering). So am I wrong? Help me understand this.

If businessman Chris Kennedy has any chance of winning the Democratic nomination for Governor, he needs to get Black voters excited for his candidacy.
With that clearly in mind, Kennedy turned his sights Wednesday on Mayor Rahm Emanuel, accusing the Mayor of being part of a "strategic gentrification plan" to intentionally push black residents out of the City.
"We're cutting off money for schools, cutting off money for police. Allowing people to be forced to live in food deserts, closings hospitals, closing access to mental health facilities" Kennedy told reporters at a news conference that began as a criticism of the city's effort to stop gun violence.
