I don't get what you mean by posting up pictures of a couple of Black guys at a protest and saying my post was debunked. I'm sure there are minorities who support the Republican agenda. If I were to turn on Fox News chances are I might even see Michael Steele or Bobby Jindall or Michelle Malkin.
The post above of the pictures with the misspellings were not to say that the tea party crowds were entirely White (although I'm sure Black attendance was probably less than 1%). Those pictures I posted were just for the lols.
But while you are on the subject of Blacks at the tea parties, what are your thoughts on the video of the Black girls who were selling "don't tread on me" flags getting chased around by White protesters who were shouting "ACORN!!!1! ACORN!!!1!!" What proof did they have that the girls were actually from ACORN? We all know if those kids were White it wouldn't have been assumed they were working for ACORN, nor would they have been followed/disrespected in such a manner. It seems ACORN has become a buzzword for the negative image some White conservatives have of Blacks.

The guy with the camera is lucky they only punched him... following people and shouting at them in a belligerent manner was kind of asking for it.

I swear you are one of these people that just pulls numbers out of your ass. There are a lot of black people that do not agree with Obama, and even so, who cares about race. Black people can have the same views as Republicans, and Whites can have the same views as Democrats.
Even so, you make up number and statistics that you state as fact, and really you have no data to back it up.
Stop posting numbers, percentages, and other statistics unless you actually know what you are talking about. Also, when the occasions come up that you do, please cite your source. This will give you more credibility.
There are no numbers posted for things like this. Even the total participation numbers have been called into question, as the promoters of these events are using photos from other events that drew larger crowds and the numbers between sources vary. The New York Times says 60k, Freedomworks said more than a million (although this was a misquote, as seen below).

[quote=excerpt from WP article]
The National Park Service has been the target of much ire because of this disparity, steadfastly refusing to offer its guess. "In 1995, we were ordered by Congress not to give crowd estimates," said Bill Line, the affable and earnest spokesman for most of the region's parks and historic monuments...
...The folks who applied to gather at Freedom Plaza and march to the Capitol on Sept. 12 said on their form that "they expected 5,000 people," Line said. So that's what the Park Service prepared for.[\quote]
So Freedomworks only applied for 5,000 on the permit for the 9/12 protest even though they had a huge advertising campaign (Fox was promoting this 24/7) and they were saying in their advertising they would have "millions" prior to the event. These guys seem really ethical in their regard to the safety of their followers, as giving a close estimate ensures that there will be enough emergency services and sanitation (i.e. porta potties) for the safety of the crowd. But thats going off topic...
Back to the lecture at hand though, did you guys not see in the links that I posted that the "White Nationalist" groups were these events for purposes of recruiting and distributing their "literature"?
Whats your point?
A story from WND in March of '08. Using your same logic, I guess its safe to assume that Obama is in tight with the Black Panthers. Although, there is a lot more proof of that than the baseless claims you are using.

Shabbaz, who has given scores of speeches condemning "white men" and Jews, said today Obama "is the best guy to bring the kinds of racial changes supported by our community at the New Black Panthers."
