leadership
An interesting datapoint for those who say that white leftists in the US should take leadership from blacks. From Gallup:
The Racial Divide Opinion of the Democratic Party Blacks are much more likely than whites to view the Democratic Party positively. Seventy-two percent of blacks have a favorable opinion of the Democratic Party, while 18% view it unfavorably. Among non-Hispanic whites, 44% rate the party favorably and 43% rate it unfavorably.
