Keyes, Redshirted but Ready
As anyone familiar with the HNIC theory understands, Alan Keyes has no future in the Republican Party as a candidate. There can only be one head negro in charge and that negro is Condi Rice. But there are other reasons as well and they have to do with political [in]competence. People who worry themselves over legitimate beefs with the Republican's hamfisted affairs with black voters don't help their case by citing Keyes as a solution. That is because, as a black conservative, he pioneered his way into one dead candidacy after another. He has expended all of his political capital and whether or not his values are shared by many or even most blacks that doesn't change the fact that he is unelectable. Keyes is as unelectable as Jack Kemp. Keyes is as unelectable as Walter Mondale. He is a proven loser. Now that has been said as clearly as possible, let me seemingly contradict myself.
Whether or not Keyes is a viable candidate, he can certainly offer a unique insight to party machinations. If he is not one to hog the spotlight, his support might prove invaluable for the next generation of black republicans. This appears to be what he is offering. From my point of view, I'm not certain he has burned quite enough bridges for that possibility to be foreclosed.
So let's look a lot closer at BAMPAC and see what it offers.
