The reason why African Americans still support democrats , that is because of What Lyndon B Johnson did for them in 1964 and those people still remember that.
LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act in 1964. African Americans still remember what Lyndon B Johnson did for them. That’s why African Americans still vote for the democrats no matter who the candidate is. However not all the African Americans are motivated to go the Polls and vote because there is no motivating factor. So Democrats must give them a reason and motivate them if they want 98% of votes from the minorities.
People might be looking at the polls and see what the black people and other minorities think about the democrats, But I have personally talked to few blacks and asked them why they were not motivated in the last election that’s because they were motivated by the candidate. I would say what motivates them to go to the poll would be having a candidate from their community at least on the 2nd ticket . People might disagree with me on this. But I must tell the truth what the minorities feel and think about others in America. I talk to Mexicans, other Hispanics , blacks , Chinese , Arabs, Indians and Iranians. I know what these minorities think and expect from the politicians. By the way these people are legal and they can vote. So if the democrats want to make a history just like LBJ did in 1964 you must do something like that, people will be still talking good things what the democrats did even after 200 years . That particular community will be thinking of democrats and supporting democrats for the next 200 years . You must do something for each minority communities to impress them and attract them towards you. Don’t let the GOP take their votes from you. I am not lying or making up stories I am only telling the truth because I feel like democrats will help all the people and do the right thing to the economy and to the people in America. That’s my goal here. Trust me people I don't need anything from anyone.
Look I am not in politics so I don’t benefit by telling the democrats the truth. I don’t need anything from any democrats or GOP. I have a decent job and I am doing well. Actually I work in a very conservative town where all of them are Trump supporters. I don’t talk about politics with my colleagues and they are nice to me. However I want everyone to do well in America and help each other and a wonderful prosperous life.
Election night 2008 was an historic moment for the country, particularly for many African-Americans.
An African-American man was elected president of the United States for the first time, largely with the help of a community that voted for him at an unprecedented level. Barack Obama won 98 percent of the black vote in 2008.

President Obama’s recent speech at the Congressional Black Caucus dinner called attention to the unique issues impacting black women. He acknowledged the onerous income disparities (making 64 cents for every dollar white men make), the debilitating sexual-abuse-to-prison pipeline (which turns victimized more
The turnout rate rose among white voters in the 2016 election and declined substantially among black voters, according to a new study.
The Census’ Current Population Survey, released Wednesday, shows 65 percent of white citizens cast ballots in last year’s presidential election, up from 64 percent four years earlier. More
I also believe democrats will always get that 60 % of black votes always. May be.
So this happens all over the country. Black people are hurt by whatever happened in the past and it’s hard for them to forget. However past is past and let’s go on deal with the presence. You can’t blame the young people and others for whatever happened in the past.
I would say that’s one of the reason why not too many blacks and other minorities didn’t show up to the polls in the last election (2016) . Because there was no motivating factor. If you want the Truth I will tell you, If you have a Black man as VP candidate in 2020 or in other elections I can guarantee you will get 98% of black votes. I am not making up stories I talked to many black people about this and that’s what I learned from them . If you want to win the election you need every single votes you can get and you need the support from every communities whether you like them or not .
Even though they are ready to vote but the republicans all over the country trying to prevent the black people from voting by having Voter ID law. The main reason Voter ID law was created to suppress the minority votes in many southern states. Even in WI. Although L B J signed the law in 1964 still republicans are not practicing that law.

I also strongly urge and encourage the Democrats to raise and bring up the Voting Rights for Puerto Ricans as a major Important issue to the congress and talk about it, debate about it and try to solve. I know its not going to be easy but I would encourage the Democrats to initiate the Talk about Voting rights for Puerto Ricans and make another history.
Here are Data from Cornell University and Pew Research Center

I also want the democrats to know you are going to be fine and Trump will get kicked out by you in 2020 and there will be democratic candidate in the White House after 2020. whatever I said above are just suggestions only. I know there are many Trump supporters hang around here and you evil doers want the democrats to fail. I can guarantee 2000000% that democrats will rule this country in a big time after 2020 election. This is a battle between the good and the evil. Good will Prevail. End of the discussion.
I also want to say that some evil doers are so ignorant and unintelligent no matter what you tell them It will not penetrate through their head and into their Brain. Because that’s the way they are. Because they are here and making some comments just to create some confusions among the democrats because of their lack of intelligence and their own misery.
