Is it just me or does the idea of Larry Elder running for president in 2024 sound like a punchline waiting to happen? Apparently, the polls agree since his support is currently in the low single digits. But hey, let’s give him some credit – maybe his candidacy will finally give some Black conservatives the recognition they deserve.

Black Republicans have always had it tough, caught in the middle of a political tug-of-war. Some Republicans ignore them, and Democrats just love to ridicule them. To make matters worse, those who do get elected feel like they’re “Black conservatives” first and conservatives second. It’s enough to make anyone want to pull their hair out.

But Mr. Elder is not one to wallow in self-pity. He believes that Black conservatives are not victims, nor are they oppressed. In fact, they don’t believe they’re owed anything – not even a proper handshake from their political counterparts. He and Mr. Scott are all about hard work, education, and self-improvement. Basically, they’re like the superhero version of Oprah Winfrey – “You get a degree! And you get a degree! Everyone gets a degree!”

Mr. Elder and Mr. Scott may not agree on everything, but they’re definitely on the same wavelength when it comes to beliefs. They both value hard work, education, and self-improvement – in case you missed it earlier. It’s like they’re the living embodiment of a motivational poster you’d find in a dentist’s waiting room.

In conclusion, Larry Elder’s presidential campaign may not be getting a lot of love from the polls, but it’s definitely getting a lot of love from us. Who doesn’t need a good laugh in these trying times, am I right? And hey, if he can finally give Black conservatives the recognition they deserve, then who knows – maybe we’ll be the first ones eating our words when he becomes the next POTUS.
