What have Democrats done for Blacks in the last 15 years?! crickets

Around 3.5 million, from around 45 million total black population. So, another example of the race baiting left - seeking to make race the issue, when it's not a relevant factor. It's worse than racism, to constantly cry wolf about racism.
