For the record, there are just as many White people on food stamps as black people.
That's not racism, that's hyper-partisanism, which one still wouldn't expect from Ron Paul (and is still wrong).
I'll play devil's advocate - is that as a percentage or a pure number? I absolutely don't agree with Paul, but I just wanted to ask.
I think the more relevant question is whether the Black Caucus is more supportive of food stamps than the average Congressperson or even the average Congressional Democrat, and the answer to this is clearly yes. Support for spending on programs for the poor domestically is in fact one reason why the Black Caucus tends to be less hawkish than other members of Congress, though not the main one - the more definitive factor being a historic experience that tends toward a less positively nationalistic view of America's role in the world.
