I looked it up too because he's been banned. It's just total rubbish. 82% of blacks voted for Carter in 76.

Your point about the shifting ideologies of the parties in America is right but his point about Blacks is total tosh.

Thanks I tried looking it up but couldn’t find any results by race.

Maybe the switch happened more in the 60’s than the 70’s but there definitely was a time when blacks voted Republican, though as I said it doesn’t really help his argument because it was the parties that changed not the voters, blacks were still voting for their own interests & the same policies whether it was team blue or team red.
