Rep Allen West (R FL) is the only conservative in the CBC. The other congress people there are pretty useless because they’re tied to a party that only cares about the black vote come election time, and that’s it. And the methods the Democrats use to keep the over 90% voter rate in the Black community going is to use misinformation that successfully fools the people year in and year out.
It’s the, “Look! There goes the racist!” brand of politics that stirs the emotions of the community to vote for a party that keeps them down by keeping their schools in failure, give out free cell phones, and basically keeps the people addicted to government assistance and false promises like phony job training programs.
I put more blame on the people themselves for allowing themselves to “be played” like suckers.

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) said Wednesday he is considering leaving the Congressional Black Caucus after one of its leaders said Tea Party-backed lawmakers want to see black people lynched.
West's news comes a day after a video circulated on the Internet showing Rep. Andre Carson (D-Ind.), the CBC whip, telling attendees at a recent CBC jobs event that Tea Party lawmakers "would love to see you and me ... hanging on a tree."
"When you start using words such as lynching ... that’s a very reprehensible word," West said on "FOX and Friends." "I think we should move away from using that type of language."
"One of the things I'm starting to think about is reconsidering my membership in the Congressional Black Caucus because I don't think they're moving toward the right manner in which we are going to solve the problems, not just in the black community, but all across the United States of America," he said.

Whether West leaves or stays in the CBC, I don’t see any difference unless black community wake up and smell the coffee.
