BET founder Robert Johnson says the Democratic Party has taken black voters in America for granted, and he urges the ascendant Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement to form a new third party to fight for their interests. In a wide-ranging interview with Fox News that touched on 2020 politics, civil unrest and more, Johnson delivered an unvarnished assessment on the current relationship between black voters and the Democratic Party. "Vice President Biden said to an African-American, a black American host on his show, even if you think about voting for Donald Trump, you're not black," Johnson told Fox News. "No minority group has ever achieved significant power in a two-party system when they are locked into one party and considered unreachable by the other party," Johnson said.
